The detention of Ukraine's best-known investigative journalist, Mykhailo Tkach, and his cameraman Yaroslav Bondarenko in Vienna this October caused an understandable outcry in both Ukraine and Austria. The two work for Ukrainska Pravda media and were reporting on the whereabouts of former Ukrainian prosecutor general Ruslan Kravchenko, who had reportedly relocated to Austria's capital shortly after Kravchenko's personal office was searched by Ukraine's anti-corruption bodies as part of a large-

The European Union is unlikely to accept a U.S. proposal to resume Russian gas deliveries to Europe through Ukraine, EU officials told the Kyiv Independent, despite Washington's belief that the scheme could help secure a ceasefire and provide economic benefits to Kyiv. The proposal would allow Russia to resume gas exports to Europe through a U.S. intermediary, potentially generating transit revenue for Ukraine while offering European consumers access to Russian gas.

The upcoming midterms will play a major role in shaping Washington's domestic and foreign policy for the coming years. Control of the House and the Senate decides who sets the agenda on security assistance, sanctions against Russia, and oversight of the White House's peace diplomacy. It also increasingly decides how far Congress is willing to act on its own. This year has already shown that Ukraine policy in Washington is no longer decided solely in the White House. In June, a bipartisan coalit
