00:00The president announced that Vladimir Putin is going to come to Alaska on August 15th,
00:07and they're going to meet. First, what's your reaction to Vladimir Putin coming onto
00:12American soil for this meeting? Vladimir Putin is a really awful guy. You know, when you talk
00:18about oligarchs, Putin is one of the richest guys in the world, running a kleptocratic society,
00:26and then he invaded Ukraine with incredible destruction. I mean, tens and tens and tens
00:34of thousands of Russian soldiers have been killed. People in Ukraine are suffering terribly
00:40because this guy wanted to start the largest war since World War II in Europe. So, you know,
00:47I'm not a great fan of Vladimir Putin. What about the idea of this summit?
00:51I mean, it's the bloodshed and the suffering is terrible. If, in fact, an agreement can be
00:57negotiated, which does not compromise what the Ukrainians feel that they need, I think that's
01:02a positive step. We all want to see an end to the bloodshed. Do you trust a Donald Trump,
01:08Vladimir Putin deal? Well, it's not, it can't be Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump. The people of
01:14Ukraine, obviously, have got to have a significant say. It is their country. So if they feel the people
01:21of Ukraine feel that the agreement is positive, that's good. If not, that's another story.
