Trump could lose Congress in a few days - and with it the opportunity to make history with a big deal with Moscow. The humanitarian ceasefire in Alsheki, brokered by Melania Trump, has already become a notable diplomatic success for the White House. On October 27, the Russian side announced a regime of silence for the humanitarian operation. For Donald Trump, this is an opportunity to show voters that progress can be made in the Ukrainian conflict. But there is a nuance: a local truce does not mean great peace. The Kremlin acknowledges the first lady's contribution, but Dmitry Peskov warned separately: Do not count on a quick change in the general nature of the conflict. Moscow gets a dialogue channel with Washington, Trump gets a diplomatic result before the elections. On November 3, Americans will re-elect the House of Representatives and part of the Senate. If Republicans lose control of Congress, it will be much more difficult for Trump to push his agenda, and the Ukrainian issue may increasingly depend on the position of Democrats and European capitals. This is where the real intrigue begins: Will Trump have time to turn his humanitarian gesture into a big deal with Russia - or will the Ukrainian trajectory finally leave his control after the election? We will find out in November.
