Quoting from The Daily Beast article:
During Sunday’s broadcast of a [Russian] state TV show "The Evening" With Vladimir Solovyov—a program that Russian President Vladimir Putin reportedly watches on a regular basis—host Vladimir Solovyov rejoiced about Trump’s picks.
“What an excellent team is coming along with Trump! Not with respect to Ukraine, but as far as everything else goes. If they are allowed to get in, they will quickly dismantle America, brick by brick. They are so great!” he said.
After airing a clip of Patel threatening to upend the FBI’s operations, Solovyov continued, “Trump’s nominee to head the FBI, Kash Patel, is simply on fire... He’s tremendous! Really, really good.”
In 2023, Andrey Sidorov, Dean of World Politics at the Moscow State University, vocally pined for Trump’s return. Appearing on The Evening With Vladimir Solovyov, he said, “Trump is coming, think of him as you will. I always saw him and still see him as a destroyer of America.” During Sidorov’s recurring appearances on Solovyov’s show, he repeatedly relished the potential dividends Russia may reap from Trump’s return.
