Johnson noted that working on national bills, including funding for the U.S. government, is a higher priority than discussing another aid package for Ukraine.

He also added that the difficulties with approving a new aid package for Kyiv are related to the fact that the White House does not want to answer key questions about the conflict in Ukraine.

The speaker emphasized that the fault for the delay in providing aid lies with the White House.

This process has been delayed not because of the House of Representatives, but because, in my opinion, the White House is unwilling or unable to provide the necessary answers
