Meanwhile, the Kremlin said that ⁠it ​hopes that the ⁠results of the US ⁠midterm ​elections ‌will not impact ‌what it ‌said were president Donald Trump’s “peacemaking efforts" on Ukraine, Reuters said.

In comments ‌broadcast by Russian state ​media, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said:

“We ⁠are sincerely ​counting on [Trump] ​continuing ​his peacemaking ​efforts.“

“Governing in the United States will be almost impossible in the coming years given the level of internal division and polarisation. As a European politician I will mainly look of course to trade policies, ⁠support to Ukraine and Nato.”
