US Midterm Elections: Democratic Victory and a Heavy Defeat for the Republicans
Published
The midterm elections in the United States produced the Democrats as winners. The result caused a heavy defeat for the Republican Party, to which President Donald Trump belongs. HuffPost Greece spoke with Dimitris Tsarouchas about the developments and their consequences.
According to Dimitris Tsarouchas, the Republicans' electoral defeat is a "resounding failure." He also speaks of a "personal defeat" for Trump. These assessments concern the overall political outcome of the elections and the president's position after them.
For Greece, Dimitris Tsarouchas argues that the policy of the United States will not change. The issue is of interest to Greek readers, because relations between the two countries affect many areas, from defence to the economy.
The midterm elections take place in the middle of the president's four-year term and decide the composition of Congress. The results show that the Democrats are gaining an advantage in the electoral contest. HuffPost Greece will continue to follow developments in American politics.
