What Trump’s midterms debacle could mean for US support for Ukraine
The recent midterm elections have led to a cautious optimism in Ukraine regarding future US support. Ukrainian President Zelensky expressed hope for increased funding and aid, noting the Democrats' commitment to Ukraine. However, President Trump retains significant foreign policy authority, limiting the Democrats' ability to enact substantial changes. Experts suggest that while the Democratic Congress may prioritize support for Ukraine, they face challenges in translating their intentions into policy, especially with Trump’s potential resistance. The upcoming negotiations between Russia and Ukraine may also influence US foreign policy direction.
