Asked whether a Democratic-held Congress would hinder U.S.-led diplomatic efforts on the war in Ukraine, Peskov stressed that the outcome of the midterm elections is “America’s internal matter.” “There are ongoing developments, and very soon there will be another round of trilateral negotiations, as well as Melania Trump’s successful peacemaking and humanitarian efforts. We hope all of this will continue,” Peskov said. Democrats captured majorities in both the Senate and House on Tuesday as U.S. voters delivered a devastating rebuke to Trump’s policies during his second term in office, including costly tariffs, mass deportations and the highly unpopular war against Iran. The incoming Democratic majority is likely to put pressure on Trump and his foreign policy endeavours, especially with an anticipated flurry of war powers resolutions designed to end the Middle East conflict, though the immediate implications of the...
