33 minutesDuring an interview at the annual Wall Street Journal CEO Council Summit in Washington, DC, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said he understood the necessity of not allowing Russian President Vladimir Putin to prevail in Ukraine and Eastern Europe, but maintained that giving more aid to Ukraine was out of the question until an agreement was made between Congress and the White House on U.S. border security. These remarks were made amid Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky making a third trip to the U.S. to plead for more aid as the Russian invasion of his country continued.
