The U.S. midterm elections could become a serious test for Donald Trump. Forecasts suggest that Republicans risk losing their majority in the House of Representatives, and their control over the Senate is also in doubt.

For the American president, this would mean that Congress could turn into the main arena of confrontation with the White House, where every administration decision would be accompanied by examinations, investigations, and attempts to block presidential initiatives. Trump is already signaling that he does not intend to accept such a scenario.

Can the Democrats place the president under real checks and oversight, how far is Trump willing to go to avoid losing control over American politics, does the United States face a new wave of political crisis, how likely is a presidential impeachment, and what level of support can Ukraine expect from Washington?

Oleh Shamshur, Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States and to France, shared his thoughts on this and other issues in an exclusive interview for OBOZ.UA.

Проміжні вибори до Конгресу США можуть стати серйозним випробуванням для Дональда Трампа. За прогнозами, республіканці ризикують втратити більшість у Палаті представників, під питанням також і їхній вплив на Сенат.

Для американського президента це означатиме, що Конгрес може перетворитися на головний майданчик протистояння з Білим домом, де кожне рішення адміністрації супроводжуватиметься перевірками, розслідуваннями та спробами заблокувати президентські ініціативи. Трамп уже дає зрозуміти, що не збирається миритися з таким сценарієм.

Чи здатні демократи поставити президента під реальний контроль, наскільки далеко Трамп готовий зайти, щоб не втратити контроль над американською політикою, чи загрожує США нова хвиля політичної кризи, наскільки ймовірний імпічмент президента і на яку підтримку Вашингтона зможе розраховувати Україна?

Своїми думками щодо цього й інших питань в ексклюзивному інтерв’ю для OBOZ.UA поділився надзвичайний та повноважний посол України у США та Франції Олег Шамшур.
