00:04It is. President Trump is certainly putting more pressure on President Putin because he already
00:11knows that he can get pretty much whatever he wants out of President Zelensky. President
00:16Zelensky will be vocal. He will insult. He will dispute. He will say some things and do some
00:24things that are really uncomfortable, make President Trump angry. But in the end,
00:28President Trump knows and President Zelensky knows that the Ukrainian government is going to fall in
00:34line with what the U.S. wants. On the Russian side, however, President Trump is frustrated. And the key
00:41for everyone to understand is that when President Trump says he will walk away, he will walk away.
00:49He is not a politician with that DNA that once they get attached to an issue, that no matter what
00:55happens, they have to stay attached. President Trump can at one point say, you know, I've given it a
01:01shot. These two aren't paying attention. I'm moving on. And then he knows that that puts pressure on
01:07Europe, which is a win for him because he's always wanted Europe to do more anyway.
