********DMITRY MEDVEDEV'S OPINION ON THE REPUBLICANS' DEFEAT IN THE ELECTIONS**

Medvedev: **Trump's defeat in the Congressional elections will not significantly change the situation for Russia** for now.

**Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council,** assessed consultations with the current US administration as useful, **but emphasized that Russia needs to "defeat the enemy on the battlefield until complete victory."**

According to Medvedev, **Trump's weakening will reduce **Kiev’s **willingness to heed Washington's opinion.**

**The US President could limit the supply of intelligence information **and other aid to Ukraine, **but according to Medvedev, such a measure is unlikely.**

**Democrats will continue to pressure Trump**, even through the threat of impeachment.

**New "monstrous sanctions" against Russia could become a subject of negotiations** in exchange for abandoning impeachment.

According to Medvedev's assessment, **tightening sanctions could lead to rising oil prices, discontent among Americans,** and further deterioration of relations with Moscow.

**Trump also needs to end the war with Iran**, which Medvedev called **one of the main reasons for the Republicans' heavy defeat.**
