Russian nationalist leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky said “rural, provincial, working-class Britain has said no to the Union, which was created by the financial mafia and globalists”.
The leader said the EU would disintegrate, and in five years time it would be a forgotten term.
The outspoken leader called the decision of the British people “a great act of bravery”.
He added: “Following Britain, NATO, Schengen and the euro will collapse. Long live the Russian rule and the development of relations with all the democratic countries of Europe!”
The mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin wrote on Twitter: “Without the UK, there will be nobody in the EU to defend sanctions against Russia so zealously.”
Russian politicians have seen a link between the EU and the collapsed Soviet Union.
The president Vladimir Putin said: “The British people have decided to leave the European Union. We have never interfered with the process.”
Experts believed that Putin was secretly backing a Leave vote as that would weaken the EU and then boost Moscow.
