## Transcript

See. Also. Economy. Of Ukraine. Ukraine. Ukraine. President Trump. I expect to have a meeting with Putin that I think it will be good, but it might be bad and I have, hey, I'm here for one reason to get rid of a war that somebody else started should have never happened. And if I could end it, great complex war. A lot of a lot of bad blood. A lot of bad blood. But Zelensky's been there for three and a half years. So if you put them in a room now, I will say this. Ultimately, I'm going to put the two of them in a room. I'll be there or won't be there, and I think it will get solved. It could be a good meeting and we'll go a step further.

We'll get it done. I'd like to see a cease fire very, very quickly, very quickly. I'd like to see it immediately, but I'd like to see it very quickly. And we're going to be dealing with the European leaders, and we're going to be dealing with President Zelensky, and hopefully we're going to have a great success.
