Zelensky expects stronger US aid after Democrats win midterms

nv.ua (Ukrainian) —

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed hope for increased US aid to Ukraine following the Democratic Party's victory in the midterm elections, as stated in an interview with German broadcaster ZDF. Zelensky said Democrats clearly declare support for Ukraine, and a balance of power could lead to more assistance. He believes stronger US support might influence Russian President Vladimir Putin to consider peace negotiations and end the war. Democrats are projected to regain control of both Congressional chambers, with 54 Senate and 240 House seats, potentially enabling them to pass direct financial and military aid to Ukraine, possibly overriding a veto by Donald Trump.
