This was stated by a member of the upper house of Congress Mitt Romney.
According to him, those present at the briefing were not ready to discuss what is required "to conclude a deal."
"There was no reason to sit and listen to people talk about the importance of helping Israel and Ukraine. We know this and agree with it," RIA Novosti quoted Romney as saying.
In addition, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell called for a vote against aid to Kyiv.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy also canceled his speech to US congressmen at the last moment.
