00:00Ukraine has gone down the priority list during the last 100 plus days of the Israel-U.S.-Iran war.
00:08And President Zelensky doesn't like to be ignored.
00:12He will push himself into any space to make certain that people are talking about Ukraine.
00:19That's not a criticism.
00:20It's just that's what he does.
00:22It's sort of his job.
00:23And the White House really didn't want Zelensky, President Zelensky at this event.
00:29But the other members of the G, the other G6 did, and President Macron did, because they're always hoping there'll
00:37be a moment where President Trump can give something that President Trump didn't even expect, sort of like they're concerned
00:45about the blow-up.
00:46But in this particular case, there is an opportunity.
00:50But President Zelensky is really not going to be getting what he wanted.
00:57He wants licensing of technology to build missiles inside the White House and the Pentagon in Washington.
01:05They're not excited about licensing technology because they're afraid of technology transfer.
01:10They're afraid some of it could, because of corruption in Ukraine, it could get sold or given to Russia, to
01:16China and other adversaries.
01:18So, you know, that's not really there.
01:20And then you have the bigger problem.
01:22And the bigger problem is when the war started, it's Russia versus Ukraine.
01:27So to stop the war, it should really be Russia and Ukraine.
01:30Then the U.S. comes in.
01:32So now there are three parties in the U.S.
01:35Ukraine sees the U.S. as an ally.
01:38Russia sees the U.S. as a mediator.
01:40And that hasn't worked.
01:43Now, within the last couple of weeks, we've had the European Union come in.
01:47And the European Union says, wait a minute, we want a seat at the table.
01:50That's 27 countries.
01:52Then you have U.K.
01:53That makes 28.
01:55Now we have 31 people at the table.
01:58How anyone thinks that's going to bring closer an end to the fighting is beyond me.
02:033.
02:032.
02:043.
02:062.
02:063.
02:063.
02:064.
