Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is making a fresh push to secure new military assistance for Ukraine, but faces challenges from both Democratic opposition and rebelling conservative members of his party. Amid discussions of structuring the aid as loans and seizing Russian assets to fund it, Mr Johnson has raised tensions within his own party over the move, with the White House warning that Ukraine is losing ground without continued American support. The proposal comes as the Speaker grapples with internal unrest and a precarious hold on his position, as conservative members of the House plot against him. With national elections looming in November, navigating these divisions and securing Ukraine aid will be crucial for Mr Johnson and his party.
