According to the Guardian, Donald Trump's defeat in the US midterm elections and the Democrats taking charge of both congressional chambers have diminished his power, shattering the aura of invincibility surrounding him, writes foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall. This shift has raised hopes among Iranians that the war against Tehran's regime might cease, though such celebrations could prove premature. In Israel, many voters who backed change welcome the humbling of Benjamin Netanyahu's primary supporter, while Ukrainians voice optimism that a Democratic-controlled Congress will curb the appeasement of Vladimir Putin's Russia. However, analysts warn that Trump's diminished lame-duck status and his frustration at no longer being the center of attention could aggravate old tensions and spark new explosions.
