Q Mr. President, what has your reaction been to the Herschel Walker controversy in Georgia? And do you think Democrats can hold that seat?

THE PRESIDENT: Negative. And yes.

Q Mr. President, Blumenthal and Khanna right now, they're calling for a stopping of U.S. arm sales to Saudi Arabia. Do you support that legislation?

THE PRESIDENT: We're going to react to Saudi Arabia, and they're doing consultation when they come back. And we will take action.

Q What's your reaction to recent Russian attacks on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine?

THE PRESIDENT: Same as it's always been: It's brutal. It's just — it's beyond the pale.

Q You said you would be open to meeting with Vladimir Putin to discuss Brittney Griner. Have you seen any movement on that front?

THE PRESIDENT: Not with Putin.

Q You want to codify Roe v. Wade, sir, right?

THE PRESIDENT: Yes.
