KABUL: U.S. President Donald Trump delivered his annual address to a joint session of the United States Congress on Tuesday evening, seeking to bolster support ahead of this year\u2019s midterm elections.
According to Reuters, Trump spoke at a time when his administration faces mounting political challenges, with midterm elections approaching later this year and the president needing strong backing from fellow Republicans.
Rising tensions with Iran over its nuclear program and the high cost of living for American voters are among the issues that could overshadow the speech.
The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, political developments in Venezuela, and Trump\u2019s tariff policies toward U.S. competitors and allies also feature prominently in the broader political landscape.
Lawmakers greeted Trump warmly as he entered the House chamber, but it remains to be seen whether his arguments will persuade members of Congress and resonate with American voters ahead of the elections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
