DID Press: Democrats in the US Congress are seeking to increase military and economic assistance to Ukraine and intensify sanctions pressure on Russia before the new Congress takes office in January 2027.
According to the report, Democrats also plan to strengthen support for Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and are seeking to incorporate these measures into the US National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) to accelerate their approval and implementation.
The initiative comes amid uncertainty over the future of Washington’s support for Kyiv, as the composition of Congress changes and US political developments continue to shape policy.
Republicans, particularly Donald Trump, have adopted a different approach to the war in Ukraine and US military and economic assistance to Kyiv, emphasising the need to reassess Washington’s policies in this area.
