Over the past six months, Ukraine has had to ration ammunition, and that has resulted in the loss of some territory in the east, including the city of Avdiivka. The bill makes important investments in our defense industrial base that will strengthen our own military. And, of course, it provides timely support to our allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific as well.

WATCH: White House holds briefing after Biden signs Ukraine, Israel aid bill into law

An election-year roast of President Joe Biden before journalists, celebrities and politicians at the annual White House correspondents’ dinner on Saturday butted up against growing public discord over the Israel-Hamas war. The message today, I think, is quite obvious, and that’s that vaccination requirements work. They’re implementable without disruptions. And they boost — they boost dramatically vaccination rates.

It is an amalgam of capabilities that come together and combine with the bravery and skill of Ukraine’s fighters that’s going to make the difference in this conflict. We are also providing Ukraine with new capabilities. I’m able to confirm, as you’ve heard from others, that in February the President directed his team to provide Ukraine with a significant number of ATACMS missiles for use inside Ukraine’s sovereign territory. That shipment started moving in March as part of the PDA that the President authorized on March 12th, and those missiles have arrived in Ukraine. Russia has tried to grind out very slow, costly progress on multiple fronts over the past few weeks. They are threatening the town of Chasiv Yar.

For me and my family, we will reflect on how deeply thankful we are that we can safely be together. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre briefed reporters and responded to questions on several issues, including funding for new border wall construction, combating gun violence, and Ukraine aid. White House press secretary Sarah Sanders was just asked why Trump accepted the meeting with North Korea's Kim Jong Un without "preconditions," such as the release of the three Americans that are being held there. We’re not saying we do not want TikTok to exist.

But, you know, we want to make sure that people have the opportunity to peacefully protest — peacefully protest. And we’ve been consistent here throughout this administration. The President has been consistent about it, obviously, since 2017, but even before that, when he saw what happened in Charlottesville. We have to call out hateful, violent rhetoric. So, we’re going to let that process play out.

And I think Mitch McConnell spoke for himself on that. Obviously, we have shown our commitment to the great people of Ukraine as it relates to defending themselves against Russia’s aggression. And we believe that we need to do everything that we can to make sure that they have what they need to fight for their democracy, to fight for their freedom.

And so they are not — were not operating in good faith, and we were left in a situation where it was either bringing Brittney home or no one at all. And so we took the opportunity of bringing Brittney home to her family and her friends. And we are going to continue to work — going to continue to keep it a priority to get Paul home. But, look, you know, again, the President has — has worked tirelessly and has — so has his administration to — to get — wanting to get both of them home. But, regrettably, the Russians have treated Paul Whelan’s situation very differently, in a totally illegitimate way.

When we see violent rhetoric, we have to call that out. When we see physical intimidation or grotesque antisemitic remarks, we have to speak that out. And you saw that from the President’s statement when he — this President’s statement on Passover. He talked about action — taking action and making sure that we’re calling that out. And, of course, in the immediate aftermath of it, he picked up the phone and called Bibi Netanyahu.

“We have to take this serious — eight years ago we could have written it off as ‘Trump talk’ but not after January 6,” Biden told the audience, referring to the supporters of Trump who stormed the Capitol after Biden defeated Trump in the 2020 election. But the president quickly segued to a grim speech about what he believes is at stake this election, saying that another Trump administration would be even more harmful to America than his first term. Despite being similar in age, Biden said, the two presidential hopefuls have little else in common. “My vice president actually endorses me,” Biden said. Former Trump Vice President Mike Pence has refused to endorse Trump’s reelection bid. So, we will continue to work with Moderna, Pfizer, J&J — the three U.S. manufacturers — to expand production and do all they can to help the world, because we don’t defeat this pandemic until we’ve defeated it both at home and across the globe.

What I can say is that the President will continue to be vigilant about our national security, and — and he will remain — we will remain to act swiftly to protect it. Again, this is not a decision that he made lightly. Yesterday, U.S. officials met with Paul Whelan’s family to inform them of the news.

And they can speak to what is going to happen at the time that they’re ready to speak to it. And actually, as you know, just in the last couple of weeks, Ukraine has passed a new mobilization law. And, frankly, for those people — innocent civilians — who are not in Rafah, they too need and deserve shelter, support, food, medicine, and everything else. And, you know, we are insisting that that happen, in addition to ensuring the safety and protection of the people of Rafah.

And what we have seen since then, as I was speaking about before with respect to the provision and facilitation of humanitarian assistance, has been a significant difference. But the administration will be well represented at that event. And so, we will continue in — to engage with the Prime Minister — the President will. We’ll continue to engage with his team in an effort for them to fully understand our perspective and where we think the right steps forward are and to listen to them as well.

And he will not give up.On a personal note, Brittney is more than an athlete, more than an Olympi- — Olympian. She is an important role model and inspiration to millions of Americans, particularly the LGBTQI+ Americans and women of color. She should never have been detained by Russia.
