  "account": "Ukraine's Chargé d'Affaires in the United States, Denys Sienik, commented on the election results, stating that while the political balance of power has shifted, their priorities remain unchanged. Sienik highlighted recent Russian attacks, including a devastating strike on a school in the Zaporizhzhia region that killed 40 civilians, as well as ongoing assaults on Ukraine's power generation facilities, which have forced nuclear power plants to reduce output. He emphasized that Russia's war against Ukraine is far from over and must be halted. Sienik expressed hope that Ukraine would maintain strong bipartisan support in both chambers of the U.S. Congress, welcoming any initiatives to save more lives. He affirmed the commitment to work closely with President Donald Trump's administration, confident in the United States' role as a global leader to achieve a just and lasting peace. Sienik urged representatives from both political parties to maintain and intensify U.S. support for Ukraine, urging Russia to take concrete steps rather than continuing to kill innocent Ukrainians and weaken international unity. Democrats secured a significant victory in the midterm elections, securing control of both chambers of the U.S. Congress.",
