A Democratic victory in the US election could pave the way for new aid to Ukraine, even in the face of a potential Trump veto, according to Reuters. If Democrats gain control of both houses of Congress in the Nov. 3 election, they could put a new funding package for Ukraine up for a vote. With a two-thirds majority in each house, Congress can override a presidential veto. Furthermore, Democrats could oppose the easing of sanctions against Russia and push for the restoration of international aid.
