Speaker Johnson promises to do everything possible to help Ukraine after his conversation with Zelenskyy

This was reported by The Hill.

"When we spoke to each other, he said that he will do everything to support Ukraine, and he’s on our side, and he understands how heroic our people, our soldiers, and civilians," Zelenskyy said. - "And he said … that his prayers are with us, and he said that he will do it.”

The president added that he delivered the same message to the White House as he did to Johnson during his visit to the United States, during which he called to “put the pause” on partisan issues between Democrats and Republicans and help lawmakers reach a deal. 

"Yes, I gave this message, my message. I think that Johnson heard it. And Biden also heard it. So that’s it. What can I do? I can’t push the Speaker. This is his decision, but I think he understands all the challenges, what we have."
