Democratic Control of Congress Could Restore U.S. Aid to Ukraine
Democrats won control of both chambers of the U.S. Congress after the November 3, 2026 midterms, giving them the ability from January to advance a new package of direct financial and military assistance for Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hopes the shift will increase U.S. support, while congressional Democrats also could block parts of the Trump administration’s policy toward Russia.
