00:00The war is grinding on to another winter. Are we any closer to a peace agreement?
00:05No, is the short answer. Are we any closer to a peace agreement? Not that anyone can see.
00:13Putin doesn't appear to be interested at this stage in an off-ramp. I don't think he sees an upside to it.
00:21Is it because he's winning? Is it because he's winning?
00:24I do believe that Putin thinks that he is, in a way, winning. And part of it may be that he doesn't see a way to get out of it.
00:33And that's different than saying he thinks he's losing. He may well want to wrap this up.
00:41It is costing his economy enormously. His energy infrastructure is taking a beating just from the homegrown Ukrainian ability
00:50to strike deeper inside Russia with their drone efforts and their homegrown missile systems.
00:57So, you know, it may be that Putin wants to get out of it. He just doesn't see how that works
01:03without losing an enormous amount of face here and potential support from the Russian population.
