00:00We were just talking that Ukrainians don't even have a navy and yet they're doing a fine job of
00:07defending their coast against the very vaulted Russian navy. And what they've done is they've
00:15taken warfare to that next step, which is inevitable. It becomes a little bit more
00:21dangerous or a little bit more tactical. And for the Ukrainians, what they've done is they figured
00:25out with these drones that are not that expensive, we can be incredibly efficient at making sure that
00:32we strike deep in the heart of Russia, as they have done, or we can attack their navy as they
00:39have
00:39done. We can do damage to their infrastructure as well. And that, I think, has helped arms dealers
00:47around the world recognize that, oh, we don't necessarily have to go big and mighty and massively
00:53expensive. We can just make sure that we outfit a drone. And this is one of the areas that
00:58Ukrainians have done very well. I can remember watching a late night talk show and it was the
01:05three-week mark. And we were all amazed that Ukrainians had still not surrendered. They,
01:13Russians, had not sort of rolled over them. And it just continues. And now we're, I think,
01:20truly in a stalemate. The Ukrainians are doing very good, making headway in the battlefield.
01:27Either they're reclaiming more or they're certainly not letting Russia reclaim more.
01:32And it's at a true stalemate. And you have a leader on the Ukrainian side who is not willing to
01:40give up
01:40territory. You have the Russians and President Vladimir Putin who absolutely want that.
01:46And they're just at loggerheads. And you have Donald Trump, who seems distracted by so many other
01:53issues, so many other big, if it be tariffs or tonight, the State of the Union or what's going
01:59on in Gaza, what's happening in Iran. So you don't have that one unifying force who's bringing everybody
02:06together on a consistent basis to try to hammer home what are the issues that we can sort out.
