The US blue wave is not blue and yellow — yet

The 2026 U.S. midterm elections resulted in a significant victory for the Democratic Party, shifting power in Washington. Despite this, Ukraine's support may not be prioritized due to domestic issues dominating the agenda. The Democratic coalition includes more pro-Ukraine legislators, but the bipartisan support for Ukraine has weakened, especially with the loss of key Republican advocates. While Democrats have the opportunity to push pro-Ukraine legislation, Trump's influence remains a concern, as he has reverted to anti-Ukraine positions. Democrats must act swiftly to mitigate potential damage to Ukraine before the new Congress convenes.
