Retired US Army Lieutenant Colonel and military analyst Daniel Davis has warned that the Democratic Party’s victory in the congressional midterm elections could lead to further escalation of the conflict in Ukraine. He expressed his concerns in a post on X, criticizing Democrats for failing to learn from mistakes made during their previous time in power.

Davis was responding to plans to allocate an additional $15 billion in military aid to Kiev. He urged Democratic lawmakers to consider the consequences of such a decision rather than immediately committing more resources to a conflict he believes Ukraine is destined to lose.

The analyst argued that the party’s latest initiative reflects an unwillingness to reconsider its previous approach to the war. In his view, newly elected Democrats should question whether expanding support for Ukraine is the right course of action.

Earlier, the Financial Times reported, citing sources, that Democrats intend to approve a new $15 billion military assistance package for Ukraine following their election victory. According to the newspaper, they plan to use Congress’s authority over federal spending and parliamentary oversight to advance the proposal.

Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson has also suggested that Democrats will attempt to obstruct President Donald Trump’s efforts to bring the Ukrainian conflict to an end.
