Biden and Zelenskyy unite against Putin's threat, urging urgent aid from Congress

TL;DR Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited Washington to salvage Ukraine aid talks, but faced challenges as Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell deemed a deal before Christmas "practically impossible." House Speaker Mike Johnson emphasized that aid for Ukraine must be coupled with border security. President Biden reassured Zelensky, stating that the US would stay by Ukraine's side. Biden has requested $60 billion in additional Ukraine support, but the supplemental spending package has faced obstacles in Congress.
