They obviously have a lot of interests at play here.

Can you explain, I guess, what they're hoping comes out of these talks and how much they're playing into Trump's thinking?

Well, we're having this conversation about...

The possibility, the very real possibility of military intervention in Iran.

I guess I'm just curious how much of a threat Iran actually poses to the United States as we sit here today.

I do feel like generally speaking, when the United States is on the precipice of military action, like the country seems to be right now, presidents do communicate about that either with the American people or with Congress or both.

How has President Trump been doing that, I guess, as this whole Iran situation has developed over the last couple of weeks?

All right, we can take a quick break and more on all of this in just a moment.

And we're back.

And this month also marks four years since Russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Greg.

Can you get us up to speed on that conflict there and what is the current state of the war?

Well, President Trump said earlier this year that he wanted an end to this conflict by this summer, Franco.

Where is the U.S.

involvement stand right now in this war and moving towards that aim?

Well, you mentioned Europe kind of replacing the United States as the sort of main driver behind Ukraine's military efforts.

Is that specifically because President Trump has sort of taken a more hands off approach than President Biden did in terms of supporting Ukraine?

I mean, where do things go from here in terms of timeline?

Are we any closer or...

Is a resolution in sight at all, or is there even the glimmer of down the road of a resolution here, or does it feel like this is just indefinite stalemate moving forward?

No, you're absolutely right.
