The most recent top meeting in the dispute over raising the US debt ceiling ended on Monday without a result, according to the Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives, Kevin McCarthy. “We’ve had a productive conversation. We haven’t reached an agreement yet,” McCarthy said at a news conference following an hour-long meeting with Biden in the Oval Office. Time is of the essence: without an agreement, the United States is threatened with insolvency from June.
