Russias putin congratulates trump on election win

I think there may be some confusion here.

Actually, it was Donald Trump who congratulated Vladimir Putin on his election win, not the other way around.

On March 20, 2018, Trump congratulated Putin on his re-election as President of Russia, despite widespread criticism from Western leaders and human rights groups over the fairness of the election. Trump's congratulatory call was seen as a departure from the traditional stance of the United States, which has often criticized Russian elections and human rights abuses.

In a statement, the White House said that Trump and Putin discussed "a number of important bilateral and global issues" during their call, including the situation in Syria and the Iran nuclear deal.

It's worth noting that the relationship between Trump and Putin has been the subject of much scrutiny and controversy, with many critics accusing Trump of being too cozy with the Russian leader and potentially compromising national security interests.
