Barack Obama has been promoting the thesis of his belief in American exceptionalism since 2009, ”she said.
Zakharova stressed that Obama's successors followed a similar concept, for example, former US President Donald Trump constantly spoke about the need to "make America great again", while the current American leader Joe Biden is also not without ideological prejudices and his administration follows the concept "promoting democracy".
