Reps. French Hill (R-Ark.), Mike Quigley (D-Ill.) and Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.) met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday as Congress debates whether — and how much — further assistance should be provided to Ukraine amid its war with Russia.
"Since the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion, U.S. assistance has helped stop the aggressor and unite the world. Robust and long-term support will achieve a common victory and the restoration of stability in Europe and the world," Zelenskyy wrote in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The visit comes as Speaker Mike Johnson and other conservative House Republicans believe funding for Ukraine should be split from considerations of aid to Israel.
"Our consensus among House Republicans is that we need to bifurcate those issues," Johnson said in a Thursday interview with Fox News.
