The U.S. presidential elections are closely watched worldwide, as their outcomes impact many countries, international actors, and institutions. For Ukraine, U.S. moral and financial support has been crucial in its defense against Russian aggression. While Kamala Harris remains a staunch supporter of Ukraine, Donald Trump has openly discussed the possibility of withdrawing such support. In this post-election discussion with distinguished experts, we will analyze the early results and their implications for Ukraine’s security, prospects for the EU’s enlargement, but also the broader impact on global order as we know it.
