MOSCOW, November 10. /TASS/. Incumbent US President Donald Trump stated on Tuesday that big progress was reached in the fight to contest the US presidential election results.

"WE ARE MAKING BIG PROGRESS. RESULTS START TO COME IN NEXT WEEK. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" he wrote on Twitter. "WE WILL WIN!"

Trump did not provide any further details.
