British Foreign Secretary David Cameron is in Washington on Tuesday to press senior Republicans to unlock money for Ukraine, after meeting a skeptical Donald Trump in Florida.
Cameron says victory for Ukraine is "vital for American and European security," but the former president and presumptive Republican candidate is a critic of continued U.S. support, and lawmakers aligned with him are holding up an aid package for Kyiv in Congress.
British officials did not say how the meeting went. Cameron and Trump have had several notable differences of opinion in the past. Cameron called Trump's proposal during his first presidential campaign to ban Muslims from the U.S. "divisive, stupid and wrong." In Washington, Cameron plans to urge U.S. lawmakers to approve a new aid package for Ukraine, warning Congress that it is putting the security of the West at risk by continuing to hold up the funding. He's due to hold talks with lawmakers including Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, and is hoping to meet House Speaker Mike Johnson, whose role is key.
