Smaller Indiana

Making people and ideas findable

I am very intrigued by the world's view of what our election means. I took some time this morning to look at a few international news stories (mostly op-ed) But very interesting.


Russian Pravda

Egypt Al-Ahram

Iran Daily

China Daily

Just thought I'd share these links if you'd like to get a quick look. There are tons of stories out there- I just picked my first few finds.

@Stephen - Those were just a few that I looked through- I read many others. But I chose to post those because of our current relations with some of those countries. I thought the Russian response was particularly interesting. I tried to post ones that I thought others might be less inclined to look up. It's just food for thought- not commentary on my part either way.

Thank you for sharing these. I believe it is interesting and important.

It's interesting that you picked all anti-democratic, repressive regimes commenting on our voting process. It would be an even more historic election in these countries if people were able to choose candidates that were not handpicked by the current powers. I'm guessing that they hope for less public criticism.

Thanks for the links, it is always interesting hearing what the rest of the world is thinking about the USA.
I think we have made a bold statement to the rest of the world. I am proud to be an American!
