00:00The White House says under this new administration, President Trump is, quote,
00:05taking swift action to bring peace and prosperity to the world. Is it working?
00:13Well, there's not peace yet, Tom, as you know.
00:19And of course, President Trump famously said during his campaign and since then and leading up to that he could solve the Ukraine-Russia war,
00:29the Russia's war on Ukraine, in 24 hours.
00:33Had he done that, I think that would have been a bad thing, actually, for Ukraine,
00:37because it's a complicated business to find a solution, to negotiate a ceasefire.
00:44President Trump, to his credit, has put this at the top of his priorities, top of his foreign policy priorities,
00:51and has sent his foreign minister, his secretary of state, he's sent envoys, he's spent a lot of time himself,
01:01he met just a couple of days ago with President Zelensky, as we see,
01:06all to say that there is a big effort by the United States for the first time to actually end this war.
01:14So that part is, you know, the effort is there.
01:18The problem, Tom, is Putin.
01:22The problem is the Russians.
01:24And President Trump is, I think, now, finally figuring out that that's the problem.
