Levitsky discusses US support for Ukraine

October 28, 2022 The Hill

Melvyn Levitsky, The Hill: While lawmakers may ultimately fall in line behind the Biden administration, the divisions and political damage may not fade so quickly.  “On the progressive side, [it] makes them look like they’re weak in the sense of not supporting freedom, not supporting the autonomy of nation-states. I don’t think they’re in a good position. Even if the Republicans take the majority… I don’t think that there will be a push to kind of draw back. It’s not a Republican image. But there’s also some leverage in that position as well, and they’ll have leverage in at least one house across the board.”
