What Happened
Democratic Gains Could Accelerate Support for Ukraine
The pace of US military aid to Ukraine is likely to increase if Democrats gain control of the House and Senate in the upcoming midterm elections, according to Rep. Jim Himes. A switch in power could lead to aid packages being approved in a matter of weeks, rather than months. The Trump administration has been criticized for its handling of Ukraine aid, and a Democratic takeover could lead to a more consistent and supportive policy.
