Earlier this week, FOX News Senior Foreign Affairs Correspondent Greg Palkot spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv.
Palkot sat down with him Wednesday, just hours after the U.S. Congress approved a $95 billion foreign aid package, that includes $60 billion intended to assist his country in their ongoing war with Russia.
The two discussed how Ukraine would spend the money, the state of the war, and why Zelenskyy thinks U.S. taxpayers should understand the importance of Ukraine’s struggle against Russian President Vladimir Putin.
It was a long conversation as he weighed in on many topics including the ongoing war in the Middle East and whether he thinks he could work with President Donald Trump if he is reelected this November.
We made some edits for time and thought you might want to hear the whole thing – especially since there’s a lot of great stuff we did not include in our original segment.
On Today’s FOX News Rundown you’ll hear all of Greg Palkot’s incredible conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymy Zelensky.

Extra: More From Ukrainian President Zelenskyy

Pro-Palestinian protests continue across college campuses, as hundreds of American students demand a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas War. Though many protesters claim they're standing to prevent genocide, there are also many spewing antisemitic threats, leaving Jewish students fearing for their safety. As the Biden Administration attempts to condemn antisemitic behavior and support Israel while also discouraging acts that harm innocent civilians, what will the Administration's next moves be? Retired Army Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg discusses how the Israeli government could conduct a military operation with as little collateral damage as possible, the likelihood of conflict expanding in the Middle East, and the probability of a two-state solution.

Congress delivered after months of starts and stops, with the House and Senate giving final approval to a 95 billion dollar international aid package that will provide critical weapons to Ukraine, Israel, and partners in the Indo-Pacific. While praised by most, this new bill could come at a cost to House Speaker Mike Johnson's speakership amid threats of a motion to vacate the chair. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram explains how this piece of legislation survived being in limbo since the fall.

Evening Edition: Autism Acceptance Month: Early Intervention Key In Language Development

The Supreme Court heard arguments this week in former President Trump’s immunity case. The former President’s attorney D. John Sauer argued that a President should be immune from prosecution when it pertains to “official acts” of the office. The Department of Justice has argued that creating presidential immunity would create a slippery slope, encouraging future presidents to commit crimes without fear of persecution. FOX News Sunday Anchor and "Livin’ The Bream" podcast host Shannon Bream joins the Rundown to discuss what she took away from the arguments, what precedent could be set if the Court sides with the defense, and what could be coming next for the former President.
