Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., reiterated in an exclusive interview that Ukraine and Israel aid should be dealt with separately and that U.S. border security is the top issue.

In an exclusive sit-down interview with Fox News Digital, Schmitt said that border security is the top issue in the aid supplemental.
"I've been very clear. I think all these issues should be dealt with separately," Schmitt told Fox. "The issues on the ground, the realities on the ground, the strategies, the political coalitions, the likelihood of success are very different for Israel versus Ukraine. I think that having a real debate about those things one by one would really be a more informed debate in supposedly the most deliberative body in the history of the world. That's not where we're at right now, which I think is frustrating for a lot of people."
