Of course, Putin could keep fighting and keep wrecking his economy and isolating his country. or you may see an opportunity with Trump to get out of this war and to set Ukraine up in a situation where he retains its freedom. Putin can live with it on his borders. That that means You know, we're not going to agree to Ukraine being disarmed, but Ukraine will agree to be neutral.

Ukraine won't be put in NATO, at least for the next 10 to 25 years. We won't raise that issue. I mean, how do you twist Putin's arm? He has seen... Fairly invulnerable to sanctions. He'll subject his people to extreme levels of pain to maintain his policy. It's going to take personal diplomacy. And look, it's going to be tough. I don't know that we'll win this, but I think it's worth trying.

They've done significant damage to the Russian economy, but Russia is still able to sell its energy. And the problem with our strategy with Russia is that we've pushed Russia into the arms of China. And China is buying Russian energy and goods and probably providing funds to sustain the Russian economy. This is a huge threat to global security long term.

We need to break that growing nexus between Moscow and Beijing, which also includes Iran and North Korea, I might add. And that's another reason why ending this war is so essential. And I don't think we should give anything to Putin other than what I just said. And I don't like the idea. that Putin wouldn't be forced to give back all the territory he's taken.

But I think we should still keep it on the table that someday we're going to ask Russia to return the territory, maybe after Putin leaves office.

I think it's a concern. That's why Ukraine has to be fully armed to and ready to prevent any Russian invasion. And we have to have peacekeepers along the border to monitor a ceasefire.

And I mean, there's a concern that there might be an agreement that the Trump administration, a future president wouldn't support it or or maybe Putin would defer to Trump, but would invade after Trump leaves office. Steps will have to be taken to submit this deal.
