Donald Trump said he wanted to end the Ukraine war. It was a big promise. He said he'd end it on day one. He hasn't done that. And he clearly thinks threatening to sanction Russia is a way of making it happen. So he has said the potential sanctions are likely.

He also said to reporters on Tuesday that he had suggested to the Chinese President Xi Jinping that Beijing should help to get the conflict settled, that they've got a lot of power. Support for Ukraine is interesting. He was asked if he intends to cut that off. There are lots of Republicans that don't want to keep providing money and support to Ukraine. Trump didn't give a firm answer.

He sort of said that European nations should be doing more since they're in closer proximity to the conflict. This is what Trump does. He announces a policy. Well, it's not that he's announced a policy on Russia, I should say, but then he says something else on his social media. So it's you kind of have to read between the lines.

I love the Russian people. I've always had a good relationship with Putin. But clearly, Donald Trump thinks he has to sort of make these kind of threats, I guess, and his bluster may pay off. Let me just also add the U.S. already has steep tariffs on Russian metals and the Biden administration imposed sweeping sanctions to cripple the Russian economy.

Yes. So this targets refugees and specifically this is going to impact refugees from Afghanistan. So there were about 1,660 who were previously cleared by the government to come to the U.S. And that included family members of active duty U.S. military personnel, unaccompanied minors flying to America to reunite with family.

And then there were those who fought for the Afghan government that was backed by the U.S., taking huge risks to themselves.

There'll be some Republicans who will be uncomfortable with it, especially for those Afghans who, as I mentioned, helped America. And if you compare it to the Biden administration, Joe Biden, you know, he... Approximately 200,000 Afghans were brought to the US following the US troops' withdrawal from the capital. But this is what Trump... He promised to be tough on immigration.
