Washington: The US presidential election is not likely to significantly impact the Ukrainian crisis, as both parties in Washington share the same stance in terms of supporting Ukraine and fighting Russia, Aleksey Polishchuk, the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry’s second CIS department, has told Sputnik.

“The US election is not likely to have a significant impact on the situation around the Ukrainian crisis. It is well-known that there has long been a bipartisan consensus regarding support for Ukraine and fighting Russia,” the diplomat said.

Meanwhile, Kiev’s recent statements are definitely aimed at influencing the US presidential campaign in a way beneficial for Ukraine, Polishchuk added.

Last week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy presented a plan to end the conflict in Ukraine to the parliament. The document includes five points and three secret additions. In particular, the Ukrainian leader proposes inviting Ukraine to NATO with subsequent membership, lifting restrictions on strikes deep into Russia, and deploying a “comprehensive non-nuclear deterrence package” on Ukrainian territory to contain Russia. According to this plan, the conflict should end no later than 2025.

The US presidential election will be held on November 5. The Democratic Party will be represented by Vice President Kamala Harris, and the Republican Party by former President Donald Trump.
