1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: No such thing as a ceasefire. This morning. Unfortunately, it's

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: all breaking down in the Middle East. Israel is coming

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,320
Speaker 1: out with more fighting talk, the rockets are back on.

4
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: And as for Ukraine, Trump hasn't exactly cloaked himself in

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,319
Speaker 1: glory with this so called deal. And I say so

6
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: called deal because it hasn't actually held yet. First, it

7
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: was only partial, no full cease fire like Zelensky had

8
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: agreed to. Second, it covered energy and infrastructure, a thirty

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: day pause for them. But already the Russians have fired

10
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: at energy facilities, They've already fired at Rhodes, They've already

11
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: taken on two hospitals. Now, if you go and have

12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: a look at the redoubt from the call between Trump

13
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: and Putin, it says Putin gave the order immediately, gave

14
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: the order to his top brass to stop the firing. Right, So,

15
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: either the military is going rogue and firing anyway, or

16
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: Putin's up to his old tricks. Actually, both of those

17
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: things could be happening at the same time time. How

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: with Russia, they could both be true, right, But either way,

19
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 1: for Trump, the big game he talks, the art of

20
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: the deal, has just hit a Kremlin wall in Trump's

21
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: favor reputation wise, is at least people are talking about peace. Right,

22
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: We've just had three years of war. Whenever you get

23
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: a world leader meeting, it's talk about more and more

24
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: and more more war, a ceasefire and armistice, a peace

25
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: steal whatever. These things require action, the act of putting

26
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: down your weapons, a truce if you will, that that

27
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: act first needs talks, and at least Trump can argue

28
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: at least the phones are ringing.

29
