And then on the Ukrainian side, one of his allies was arrested while trying to flee the country from this massive corruption probe that's going on.
So Herman Halashenko was detained at the border trying to leave by train.
And I think he's tied up in this thing.
He resigned in November and is under a lot of heat for this corruption.
So.
looks like the corruption scandal is continuing to escalate in, in Ukraine.
So I think those are the latest developments I see in Ukraine.
What do you guys think is going to happen?
I would say I don't I don't expect an agreement anytime soon, like not within the next few weeks or months.
I think it's going to keep going because I still think that right now, as things stand currently, Russia has all the advantages to just keep it going.
And so they don't need to compromise on anything.
And right now, Zelensky is not willing to compromise on all the land that would essentially have to be given up to bring this to an end.
And so I think they're at an impasse.
And they are having more talks in Geneva coming up.
So they are trying to come to an agreement.
But I don't know if it's possible with Zelensky.
I think it might require some kind of election and a new leader to say we're going to put an end to this.
And I don't see that happening soon either.
So that's why at this point I would define it as just having the war stop and giving up all the territory you need to to make it happen, because I think it's just going to get worse.
I think, you know, people in the past have said, oh, in the winter, everything's just going to stop, but it's not stopping.
