"Zelensky's Plea for Ukraine Aid: Biden Responds with $200M Military Assistance"

President Biden warns that Russia is celebrating American division over providing aid to Ukraine, as President Zelensky faces resistance from congressional Republicans during his visit to Washington. Republicans insist on pairing new aid for Ukraine with tighter security at the southern border, and even supporters of aid have given up hope of approving it before Congress goes on holiday break. Biden accuses Republicans of holding military aid to Ukraine "hostage" in exchange for their partisan agenda on immigration. American support for Ukraine appears to be waning, despite Biden's pledge to stand by the country. European lawmakers release a joint letter urging Congress to support funding for Ukraine.
