The political scientist assessed Zelensky’s strategy before the US congressional elections

Brief retelling from RIA II

Political scientist Vladimir Kornilov believes that Vladimir Zelensky’s hopes for the Democrats in the US Congress will most likely not come true again.

According to Kornilov, Zelensky’s team lacks professional foreign policy specialists, otherwise Zelensky would have been explained that Trump will remain president after November and will retain influence on the volume of aid to Ukraine.

The new composition of the House of Representatives and the fate of 35 seats in the Senate will be determined in the US elections on November 3.

MOSCOW, October 9 - RIA Novosti. Vladimir Zelensky’s reliance on the Democrats in the US Congress will most likely not come true again, says political scientist Vladimir Kornilov.

“As the congressional elections approached, Zelensky began to openly criticize the White House and its team, thereby playing along with the narratives of the Democratic Party. He is again betting on this political force in the hope that this time his strategy will be successful. He demonstrated a similar approach during the last presidential race in the States, but then this bet did not work,” Kornilov told the Vzglyad newspaper.

According to the political scientist, Zelensky’s team lacks professional foreign policy specialists. According to Kornilov, otherwise they explained to him that after November, US President Donald Trump will still remain president, and the new Congress will meet only next year. He emphasized that even if the Republicans lose their majority in both houses, Trump will retain influence on the volume of financial and military assistance to Ukraine.
