I I I agree with you. voice-verified

I mean, Putin is the man who said, uh, you know, the greatest disaster of the 20th century was the collapse of the Soviet Union, and he's tried to recon reconstitute the idea of the Soviet Union ever since. voice-verified

So that's part of the Ukraine thing, and he bears a thousand percent responsibility. voice-verified

However, it is well documented that when Bush turned from voice-verified

What he believed was a legitimate war that he supported in Afghanistan to what he did not support, Bush's war on Iraq, he started to turn against the United States. voice-verified

And he s significantly turned against the United States during the uh Obama administration when uh Obama led a coalition of NATO nations over Libya. voice-verified

And Russia, Putin had agreed to a limited uh operation in the UN and then it went too far and that pissed him off even more. voice-verified

I'm not saying and I'm not excusing him. voice-verified

What I'm saying is that when you talk and lament correctly about a lack of of diplomacy, a lack of ability to talk to some of these leaders that might not lead you to, you know, to to whatever. voice-verified

Putin should have been able to talk to the West, talk these things out. voice-verified

And he's got that kind of character where he backed himself into a a corner of voice-verified

Of mistrust, distrust, and his own. voice-verified

Ego-maniacal, you know, revanchist notion of history. voice-verified

So I think that's absolutely true. voice-verified

And I think that um I think that, you know, President President Trump has also, like Putin, decided to go into a war of choice with Iran. voice-verified

Again, as you know and I know, there were actual negotiations on the table, both in July or June, whenever it was 25, and in February of the voice-verified

This year that could have led to a solving of the nuclear file, which Trump precipitated by pulling out of the nuclear accord that the whole world, including Russia, including China, had signed on to. voice-verified

So this is voice-verified

gone nuts, in my opinion. voice-verified

It's just nuts. voice-verified
