“The Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate will bring a tough new tone to the debate over Washington’s foreign policy, with lawmakers expected use their new clout and power over the budget to promote a more interventionist foreign policy. Republicans plan to pressure the White House to take a tougher line on Iran, Russia and Islamic State fighters in Iraq and Syria. Two of Washington’s most vocal foreign policy hawks, John McCain and Lindsey Graham, came in line to chair two key Senate panels. McCain, who has advocated a more robust response in both Ukraine and Syria, will lead the Senate Armed Services Committee, which oversees military policy.”
