DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Following President-elect Donald Trump’s sweeping victory in the U.S. presidential election on Tuesday, several leaders from countries around the world offered their responses—some more congratulatory in nature than others.

Trump made a historic comeback from his loss in 2020 and swept the electoral vote by at least a 277-224 Electoral College margin—with several states still uncalled, but with Trump leading—while also taking the popular vote by nearly 5 million votes, according to multiple reports.

World leaders were closely watching the election—as Harris’ and Trump’s approach to foreign policy varies widely—and offered compliments on his victory, while other nations typically considered American adversaries seemed to take a more muted and cautionary tone.

“Italy and the United States are ‘sister’ nations, linked by an unshakable alliance, common values, and a historic friendship,” Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said in a statement on Wednesday. “It is a strategic bond, which I am sure we will now strengthen even further.”

A nome mio e del Governo italiano, le più sincere congratulazioni al Presidente eletto degli Stati Uniti, Donald #Trump.

È un legame strategico, che sono certa…

“Congratulations on history’s greatest comeback!” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:
