The Democrats, who won a majority in the US Congress in the mid-term elections on November 3, will almost certainly increase the pressure on the Trump administration regarding its policy in the Middle East, Turkish international security expert Kanan Tarkan told a TASS reporter. "It is clear that after securing a majority in Congress, the Democrats will increase the pressure on the Trump administration for its policies in the Middle East. In opposing the war with Iran, they will try to limit the new military operations and the military budget," said Tarkan, who heads the Yallah Academy of Politics at Istanbul Aydin University.
