President Trump is concentrating now on this meeting that he's going to have in Hungary with President Putin.

The date still isn't set for that.

And he didn't want to push President Putin into a corner before that meeting took place.

But the important thing is, and this is the interpretation that we've had on the war room, giving these Tomahawk missiles to Zelensky wasn't simply a military strategic objective on behalf of Zelensky.

It was his attempt to lasso America into this war to support him in this war of attrition.

And that is not, at least for now, that is not going to be taking place.

That's the critical part.

Look, I don't want to preempt that meeting because I don't know how much room President Putin himself intends to give on this.

But let's, you know, we'll read the tea leaves and then run up to the meeting.

Steve, I have to say, for me, the important thing about this meeting is that it's taking place in Hungary, in Viktor Orban's Hungary.

There is not a member state in the European Union that has been more

that has refused more to play the Ursula von der Leyen line.

And I'm just thanking God that President Trump didn't ask to have this meeting here in Rome, Italy, under the support of the Prime Minister, Fonny Maloney.

That would have been absolutely awful.

The fact that he's given it to Orban is a massive sign of support in Orban.

He's very isolated here in the European Union.

And I'm very grateful for the president for having done that as well.

Oh, my beady-eyed cynicism is on maximum now for the next weekend.

It's Harnwell, my surname, Harnwell on Getter, my social media platform of choice.

Thanks, Steve.
