The future president of the United States, Donald Trump, has won the final victory in the last "swing" state, Arizona.

This was reported by Reuters.

"Republican Trump, who had received 270 electoral college votes needed to win the White House by Wednesday morning, is now expected to have 312 votes to Harris' 226," the journalists note.

Thus, Trump won electors in all seven swing states. It is noted that he received 74.6 million votes across the country (50.5%) against 70.9 million for Harris (48%). In addition, the Republicans have gained a majority in the Senate, and the fight for the House of Representatives is still ongoing. Republicans are also in the lead there.

Earlier, Donald Trump's adviser , Brian Lanza, said that the new US administration intends to achieve peace rather than return the territories of Ukraine annexed by Russia. However, the Trump team said that Lanza was not speaking on behalf of the Trump campaign:

"Brian Lanza was hired for the campaign. He does not work for President Trump and does not speak on his behalf."

Instead, Donald Trump's peace plan to end the war in Ukraine may include a demand to refuse to join NATO for 20 years and freeze the front line without returning the territories. However, Trump has not yet approved a specific plan, including how he will convince Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to sit down at the negotiating table.

Earlier ,Mykhailo Shabanov , associate professor of political science at the Mechnikov ONU, expressed his opinion on the air of Intent.Insight that the victory of any of the presidential candidates in the United States will not lead to the termination of aid to Ukraine, but they will act differently.

Mykhailo Shabanov assessed Donald Trump as a man who likes to be liked, and primarily by Americans. The American audience, according to the political scientist, is less interested in foreign policy, but in this area, the perception of the United States as a hegemonic country is important to them.
