00:00We have a meeting with President Putin tomorrow.
00:03I think it's going to be a good meeting,
00:04but the more important meeting will be the second meeting that we're having.
00:07We're going to have a meeting with President Putin,
00:09President Zelensky, myself,
00:11and maybe we'll bring some of the European leaders along, maybe not.
00:16I don't know that it's going to be very important.
00:18We're going to see what happens.
00:19And I think President Putin will make peace.
00:23I think President Zelensky will make peace.
00:26We'll see if they can get along.
00:28And if they can, it'll be great.
00:29You know, I've solved six wars in the last six months,
00:34a little more than six months now.
00:36Mr. President, on D3, come on.
00:38Go ahead, please.
00:38Mr. President, thank you.
00:39Do you think this summit and the incentives for peace you were putting on the table
00:44could end up rewarding Putin for his invasion of Ukraine?
00:48And what kind of signal do you think that could potentially send to other aggressors?
00:52No, I don't think it's a reward.
00:54I think that what we have is a situation that should never have started,
00:58should have never started.
00:59It didn't start under me.
01:01And for four years, it wasn't even discussed.
01:04And I could see it was going to happen after I left.
01:07I could see what was happening.
01:08Everything that we did was wrong.
01:11Everything that was done was wrong.
01:14Everybody's to blame.
01:15Putin's to blame.
01:17They're all to blame.
01:18And this is a war that would have never happened.
01:21Well, he came to our country.
01:22And I heard CNN fake news talking about that that was a big win for him.
01:29Normally, you would say the opposite.
01:31But they said, oh, it's a big win that he came here.
01:33Normally, we'd say the opposite.
01:35You know, he came here.
01:36I think that President Putin would like to see a deal.
01:41I think if I weren't president, he would take over all of Ukraine.
01:44It's a war that should have never happened.
01:47If I weren't president, in my opinion, he would much rather take off, take over all of Ukraine.
01:54But I am president, and he's not going to mess around with me.
01:57Would you support or agree to reducing NATO troops in Europe, in countries like Poland,
02:03in order to get Russia to agree to a peace deal?
02:06That hasn't been put before me, and I'll think about that for later.
02:10But it has not been put before me.
02:12Go ahead.
02:12Is anything less than an unconditional and immediate ceasefire a victory for the U.S.?
02:17Tomorrow?
02:18Yes.
02:18Well, tomorrow we'll see.
02:20I say, you know, I don't know where that comes from.
02:22It's sort of not a good question.
02:24I would say that tomorrow, all I want to do is set the table for the next meeting,
02:28which should happen shortly.
02:30I'd like to see it happen very quickly, very shortly after this meeting.
02:34I'd like to see it actually happen maybe in Alaska, where we just stay, because it's so much easier.
02:39But I think that, I think it's going to be very interesting.
02:43We're going to find out where everybody stands, and I'll know within the first two minutes,
02:48three minutes, four minutes, or five minutes, like we tend to find out,
02:52whether or not we're going to have a good meeting or a bad meeting.
02:55And if it's a bad meeting, it'll end very quickly.
02:57And if it's a good meeting, we're going to end up getting peace in the pretty near future.
03:01Do you okay?
