00:00How quickly can it end?
00:02Should end immediately.
00:04Should have never started.
00:05That would never have started if I were...
00:07I used to talk to Putin about it.
00:09Ukraine was the apple of his eye.
00:11But there was no chance that he would ever do it.
00:13And he didn't do it.
00:14For four years he didn't do it.
00:15Have you spoken to him?
00:16Putin shouldn't have done it.
00:17He shouldn't have done it.
00:19And it has to stop.
00:21Do you know they've lost about 850,000 Russian soldiers
00:24and 700,000 Ukrainian soldiers?
00:27If they don't settle this war soon,
00:29almost immediately,
00:30I'm going to put massive tariffs on Russia
00:33and massive taxes and also big sanctions.
00:37And I don't want to do that.
00:39You know, I love the Russian people.
00:40They're great people.
00:41I don't want to do that.
00:42But we've got to get this war ended.
00:44And if they don't make a settlement like fast...
00:46And Zelensky, I will say this, he wants to settle now.
00:49He's had enough.
