00:00If you extend this invitation to Vladimir Putin, will he respect it? Will he join you?
00:04Very good relationship going, the two of us.
00:06And we're, the President and I are trying to figure out a solution.
00:12And I think it's going to happen. I really do. I believe it's going to happen.
00:15But we have a lot to talk about, so we're going to go quickly with the press.
00:20But the relationship is very strong, and with Europe it's very strong.
00:23And you saw what just happened with Greenland, which is something very special.
00:29So maybe I'd ask you to say a few words, and then we're going to get down to business.
00:33All right? Thank you very much.
00:35Thank you very much, Mr. President.
00:37Thank you very much for this meeting, and thanks for your personal support, bipartisan support.
00:43And bipartisan support when they voted the Lindsey Graham bill.
00:48Thank you very much for this.
00:49Thanks, Jared and Stephen, for the meeting with us.
00:53They came to our Capitol. Thank you so much to the society.
00:56It's very supportive.
00:58I hope that we will end this war, and President Trump will help us to end this war.
01:04And I think that we need it to do as quick as possible before winter, better before winter.
01:10Big thing before winter, right?
01:12Yeah, so we will discuss a lot of different things.
01:15So let's start.
01:18Mr. President, last year at this assembly, you said that you think Ukraine can take back all its territory.
01:27Do you still think that's the case?
01:28Or what do you think they're going to have to give up for peace to happen in Ukraine?
01:31Well, I think they're going to make a deal.
01:32And I don't want to say what the deal is.
01:34We talk about it a lot, including with President Putin.
01:37And I think something's going to happen.
01:39But certainly they are very good fighters, really.
01:43They could be proud of themselves.
01:45Regardless, we'll see what happens.
01:46But very, very capable people.
01:49Mr. President, Mr. President.
01:50Very capable leadership.
01:52The President, the European leaders.
01:53The strikes inside Russia on the refining capacity and the diesel, it seems like that's been a serious hit on
02:01the Russians.
02:02Can you talk about that?
02:03Well, it is a serious hit on the Russians.
02:04It's also a serious hit on the price of diesel.
02:08The diesel oil, diesel fuel has gone up quite a bit.
02:12But we'll be talking about that.
02:14But no, it's a very serious hit, certainly on Russia.
02:18So a lot of people in the U.K. are very worried about the mood music from the U.K.
02:24and other European leaders about the inevitability of direct conflict between us and Russia.
02:30Can you stop that happening?
02:32Are you talking about the U.K. and Russia?
02:33Yes, and the U.K. and extended Europe.
02:35I think it'll be okay.
02:36But I will say the rhetoric from your last Prime Minister was too tough.
02:41He has to be a little bit careful.
02:42And this one?
02:43Well, I haven't heard the rhetoric too much, but I think he's going to be good.
02:47I will say he's on your side very much.
02:51But it's a very interesting thing that you say.
02:54I've seen that dialogue, and that dialogue is too nasty.
02:58President, Senator Sullivan today has called for a ban on diesel exports, a temporary ban.
03:03On what?
03:03A ban on diesel exports.
03:05Chuck Grassley called for the same thing.
03:06Mike Rogers called for the same thing.
03:07Is that something you're considering?
03:09Well, I've called for that too.
03:11I've said let's not send out the diesel.
03:13We make a lot of diesel.
03:14It could have a little bit of an effect on regular automobile gasoline, because when you
03:20do that, you know, it's a sort of a flow.
03:22It's a balance.
03:23But no, I've called for it.
03:25I've called for it within my people.
03:26I've been talking about it.
03:27Scott, do you want to talk about that for a second?
03:29Yeah, we're examining that, whether it's feasible in terms of the overall refining capacity
03:37and whether a full or a partial ban would work.
03:41Is there a timeline for a decision on that?
03:43One way or the other.
03:45Mr. President, if President Zelensky told us, one, that he is ready to come to Miami for
03:52G20 summit and sit down with you and Vladimir Putin, if you extend this invitation to Vladimir
03:57Putin, will he respect it?
03:59Will he join you?
04:00Well, I don't know.
04:01I know that he will meet, and we've had a meeting already in Alaska.
04:04I think he'll do another one.
04:06I don't know about Miami.
04:07We have a big thing happening in Miami very soon.
04:10But no, he'll meet.
04:11He's willing to meet.
04:13He'd like to see the war end.
04:14With both you and Vladimir Putin?
04:15I think they both want to see the war end, to be honest with you.
04:18It's time.
04:19A lot of people are being killed, and they don't want that.
04:21But I think they both want to see the war end.
04:23Mr. President, how does the deal look with the Belarusian President over Potash?
04:30And if that goes through, are you concerned that the money for that deal would strengthen
04:35Russia's hand at all in the war?
04:36No, not at all.
04:37But Belarus has a lot of Potash, and our farmers need good prices, and we want to get a lower
04:43price than Canada.
04:44And we'll continue to go with Canada, but Belarus would like to sell it for a much lower price.
04:50He said there's not much left.
04:51Has anyone from your team met with the Iranian delegation?
04:54Anyone from, or plans to meet with who?
04:57What do you say?
04:58Yeah, today.
04:59How was that conversation, Mr. President?
05:01About an hour ago.
05:02Okay.
05:03How was that?
05:03It was very well.
05:04It ended an hour ago.
05:05It was a meeting that lasted for three hours.
05:08It ended an hour ago.
05:10What was that?
05:10It was a very good meeting.
05:11I mean, I must say it's very good.
05:13I can't imagine why they wouldn't want to do it.
05:16It's greatness, potential greatness, or obliteration.
05:21What do you mean for it right now?
05:22I mean, in one case it's obliteration, and the other alternative is potential greatness.
05:28It could be a great country.
05:29Are you planning to implement the Instagram bill?
05:34It's one of the questions that Ukrainians have very interested in.
05:36Well, something we're certainly studying.
05:38It's a very severe bill.
05:39It's very severe, very tough.
05:41Yeah.
05:41Are you planning?
05:42Very strong.
05:43What is your meeting with the President of China?
05:47Because it might impact him in the first way.
05:50I'll probably talk about it.
05:52We're going to talk about it a lot.
05:53It's going to be a great meeting.
05:55And we're going to have a very good relationship.
05:59Look, he likes China.
06:00I like the U.S.
06:01He loves China.
06:02I love the U.S.
06:04That's the way it is.
06:05But we're going to have a big deal tomorrow night.
06:07I'll tell you, everybody wants to be there.
06:10Everybody wants to be there.
06:11Mr. President, you have a big deal.
06:13I wish we had the ballroom.
06:14If we had the ballroom, we could have 2,000 people.
06:17But we have a very small room.
06:19But as one of the papers reported,
06:22that's the hottest ticket that they've said in a long time
06:24when President Xi comes in.
06:26Almost as hot as when Zelensky comes into town.
06:30Will we bring Zelensky the ballroom next time?
06:32What?
06:33Will we bring Zelensky the ballroom?
06:35Yeah, well, we might have that.
06:36It's going to be it's under budget and ahead of schedule.
06:41Mr. President, I don't know.
06:42Can we tell us a little bit more about the Serenian meeting?
06:46Did Mr. Cusher and Mr. Whitclough participate?
06:48Well, there's nothing to say.
06:49They had a very good meeting, a very productive meeting,
06:51and they have another one scheduled in the very near future.
06:54I think Steve, if you want to, or Jared, want to say something.
06:57But they had a very productive meeting, yes.
07:00I think you don't want to say something, Steve.
07:05Can you give us something?
07:06Did they say anything about your speech today?
07:08How are you feeling after that meeting?
07:11I feel very good right now.
07:13How will you feel tomorrow?
07:15I think very good.
07:17It's a blessing working for President Trump.
07:20They had a very good meeting, and we'll see how it turns out.
07:22But certainly it's to their advantage to make a deal.
07:26And if we can do that, it's preferable, I guess.
07:29You know, there's two alternatives, and you heard them in my speech today.
07:33One is a very bad thing, and another, it could lead to greatness for the country.
07:39So I would think they'd want to do that.
07:42Mr. President, I have a good meeting.
07:44Yeah, please.
07:45You announced the possible production of Patriot missiles in Ukraine.
07:50Would you be able to deliver on this promise?
07:52We're talking about that.
07:53We'll be talking about that now.
07:56See, if you would have come in at the end, we would have had an answer.
07:59But we'll be talking about that now.
08:00Very capable production.
08:03I mean, we talk about it all the time.
08:05Very capable people.
08:06Really amazingly capable people.
08:08Thank you very much, everybody.
08:09Thank you, Brad.
08:10Thank you, Brad.
08:10Let's go.
08:11Please look up the same way.
08:13Thank you, guys.
