President Zelensky’s return to the White House was met with a less enthusiastic reception compared to his previous visit. While he continued to press for additional funding for Ukraine, some Republican lawmakers opposed such funding until they received a comprehensive breakdown of prior allocations. Despite 26 elected officials signing a letter requesting transparency, President Biden's administration appeared determined to provide additional funding. Zelenskyy's plans to address a joint congressional session were thwarted by Speaker Kevin McCarthy, citing time constraints and expressing questions about Ukraine's spending. The debate surrounding Ukraine's funding and America's involvement in the conflict remained contentious.
