OPINION - Vladimir Putin using North Korean troops could become a nightmare for Russia — and China
Donald Trump has promised to settle the Ukraine war within 24 hours – and so many expect a difficult peace, a “dirty deal” according to Max Hastings, early next year. Russian forces are now on a roll, pushing along nearly 800 miles of front in Ukraine itself, and squeezing Ukraine forces in the pocket of Russian territory round Kursk they took last summer. Any deal for ceasefire and armistice wouldn’t be Trump’s but Putin’s. Right now, Putin’s team have said they are no mood for talks to end the war.

House Republicans will hold onto a thin majority, and while the chamber's exact partisan divide is still to be determined as votes are tallied in a handful of states, the results of 435 House races nationwide have produced hardly any change to the makeup of the chamber. In fact, it's more like a stalemate: Republicans and Democrats have each flipped seven seats, while just eight incumbents nationwide have lost their races.
