With Democrats set to control Congress, Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy hopes for more US help, while the Trump administration continues to pursue talks with Russian and Ukrainian officials. Commentators disagree on whether the US should step up military support or push for a negotiated end to the war. Readers place each article between these two approaches.

## How to read this

Each article is placed by reader votes on a scale from -100% ("More US support") through 0 ("Mixed approach") to +100% ("Negotiated settlement"). Scores are averages of community votes, not editorial ratings.
