Democrats may override Trump veto to pass Ukraine aid, Reuters reports

pravda.com.ua (Ukrainian) —

US congressional Democrats may approve new aid for Ukraine by overriding President Trump's veto, according to Reuters. The party's control of both chambers starting in January could enable this move. Trump has largely halted direct financial and military aid to Ukraine despite bipartisan legislative support. Democrats also plan to challenge his actions on Russian diesel fuel sanctions and the Iran war, potentially cutting defense spending or delaying nominations. Democratic aides stated that aid to Kyiv is a priority. The party secured 220 House seats, solidifying control of both chambers.
