Ukraine expects new dynamics in US support after Democrats win midterms

timesofindia.indiatimes.com —

Ukraine expects new opportunities for US support after Democrats won control of both chambers of Congress in the midterm elections, with Kyiv hoping for increased military and financial aid. Foreign minister Andrii Sybiha said Kyiv anticipates "new dynamics" and further assistance from Washington. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted Democrats have been vocal supporters of Ukraine, adding that stronger US backing could pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin. Democrats secured at least 54 Senate seats and 28 House seats, potentially enabling a two-thirds majority to override President Donald Trump's veto on Ukraine aid. Democratic aides have prioritized assistance to Kyiv, though the outcome may cause legislative deadlock.
