US midterms: Democrats sweep, Trump accepts results

The Democratic Party won majorities in both the Senate and the House of Representatives in Tuesday's US midterm elections, according to projections by major US television networks, with some describing the outcome as a wipe-out of President Donald Trump's Republican Party. Trump said he is "absolutely willing" to accept the results and prepared to work with Democrats, while the White House insisted he is "still your president" a day after the losses. World leaders voiced hopes for a reset with the US, and analysts say the Democratic sweep dims prospects for a Trump-Kim Jong-un summit. Korean stocks opened sharply higher Wednesday, with the KOSPI rising 124.21 points, and US stocks surged while Brent oil's price dropped below $95 per barrel.
