Night clear to Lord journalists, 3 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 2: good even clear, Good to see you and Josie Bagani's 4 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 2: here child fun Ceo, Hi, Josie, Hello, Hello, great to 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 2: have you both here. Now let's start with what's happening 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 2: with Ukraine in a funny kind of a way. Clear, 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 2: And I'm not saying I love Trump, but. 8 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 1: You better not. 9 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 2: He's come out. He's come out. He's come out, and 10 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,319 Speaker 2: he's shaken the tree, and he's actually got Europe to 11 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: do really what the Americans have wanted Europe to do 12 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 2: for the last forty years, which is up their defense 13 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 2: spending and look after their own backyard. 14 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 3: I think that's but like beating somebody up so that 15 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 3: they go on a self defense course. Can't say I 16 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 3: think that's a really good way of going around it. 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: Well, it worked, I mean, look at them. 18 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but the body boys in the White House, 19 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 3: you know, are basically mobsters. Now in my view, they 20 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 3: are going to reach what they so eventually because you know, 21 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 3: Putin has really played them, he will continue to play 22 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 3: them when there is eventually a resolution, which there has 23 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 3: to be. You cannot keep on fighting war like this 24 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 3: forever because it is literally killing so many people on 25 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 3: both sides, young people. It's an utter tragedy. But you know, 26 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 3: Putin will still be there in Russia. He will probably 27 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 3: And we've got to remember this is week five or 28 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 3: six of Trump's second term. There are many more weeks. 29 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: But already we're talking about a potential cease fire, and 30 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 2: we've had three years without those words really entering the lexicon. 31 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 4: Josie, Well, Ryan, what we're really talking about here, this 32 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 4: deal that Trump is putting forward is a deal for surrender, 33 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 4: not peace. You've got to be really clear about that. 34 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 4: I mean, you know it does involve Ukraine getting nothing 35 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 4: and giving up everything. I'm just staring at the cover 36 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 4: of Private Eye actually this week, which Trump asking Zolensky 37 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 4: a question, what guess what the deal is, and Zelensky replying, 38 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 4: I give in, and Trump says, correct, it is a surrender, Ryan, 39 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 4: it is a surrender. And I think that what you 40 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 4: what you're seeing here is a kind of replay of 41 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 4: what Churchill went through in nineteen forty, where all the 42 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 4: pressure came on to surrender to appease Germany, and you 43 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 4: know you now understand the kind of pressure that he 44 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 4: was under. But it would also Ryan, I just heard 45 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 4: you're talking about independent foreign policy for me. Independent foreign 46 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 4: policy for New Zealand is not about picking one side. 47 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 5: Or the other. 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 4: It's actually about hedging, hedging so that we don't go 49 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 4: right we're all in with America, and frankly, I don't 50 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 4: think we want to be all in with America. I 51 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 4: don't want to. I agree with that, Panama, but you've 52 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 4: got a hedge between China. 53 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, But my point is you will hedge all day 54 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: long until it comes to a head, and you'll have 55 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: to pick aside at some point. 56 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 4: But you're not you're picking. Yes, you're picking a side 57 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 4: in terms of our values and our principles. And I 58 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 4: think the key thing with Ukraine is we have to 59 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 4: be a tight, really tight team here of countries that 60 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 4: are democratic, that believe in freedom of individuals, freedom before 61 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 4: the law. So we do have to make a decision 62 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 4: to be part of the coalition of willing. That's absolutely true. 63 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 4: That doesn't mean we walk away from China. You know, 64 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 4: that's a very different question. 65 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 3: And Ryan, you've got to remember when you talk about 66 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 3: what Ukraine will settle for. They gave away in nineteen 67 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 3: ninety five. They gave away their nuclear arsenal in exchange 68 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: for specific protections from the United States the UK and 69 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 3: it has where has that got them? And Russia was 70 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: actually one of those, one of those who agreed not 71 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 3: to have aggression. I think one of the many casualties 72 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 3: of this will be any sort of nuclear disarmament talks 73 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: in the future. KO are ever going to give them away? 74 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: Now? 75 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 5: Totally? 76 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: Why would you? And well, no one can be trusted 77 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: on their work, can they? And a word doesn't last forever. 78 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 3: No, and especially Trump, I would not trust a single 79 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 3: thing he says. 80 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 4: You've got I think we've got to wake up and 81 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 4: smell the coffee here. I mean, Trump's USA has now 82 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 4: swapped sides. There's no doubt that Putin is the person 83 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 4: he's supporting sorts. 84 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: I have a hard time agreeing with that. And I 85 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 2: have a piece of audio. When we come back. I've 86 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 2: got a piece of water. 87 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: I'm going to play you persuade us. 88 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: And I'll persuade. 89 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,679 Speaker 4: You audio and we'll see where we stand. 90 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: Clear the law and Josie Buccani about to get schooled. 91 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: The huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty, the ones 92 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: with local and global reach news talks. 93 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 2: It is thirteen minutes away from six and cleared the Lord. 94 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 2: Journalist Josey beginning child fun CEO with me tonight. Now, 95 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: I promised you before the break, I'll play a little 96 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 2: bit of audio. This is from Donald Trump at his 97 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 2: press confidence at the weekend with Zolenski. And this is 98 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: because everybody keeps saying, oh, he's he's gone with the 99 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 2: rush and he's starting with potion. He was actually asked 100 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 2: about this at the prisoner and here's what he had 101 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 2: to say. 102 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 5: How explined him, Well, if I didn't align myself with 103 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 5: both of them, you never have a deal. He wants 104 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 5: me to say really terrible things about Putin and then say, Hi, Vladimir, 105 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 5: how are we doing on the deal. That doesn't work 106 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 5: that way. I'm not aligned with Putin. I'm not aligned 107 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 5: with anybody. I'm aligned with the United States of America 108 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 5: and for the good of the world. I'm aligned with 109 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 5: the world, and I want to get this thing over with. 110 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 5: You see the hatred he's got for Putin. It's very 111 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 5: tough for me to make a deal with that kind 112 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 5: of Hey, he's got tremendous hatred and I understand that. 113 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 5: But I can tell you the other side isn't exactly 114 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 5: in love with you know him either, So it's not 115 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 5: a question of alignment. I have to I'm aligned with 116 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 5: the world. I want to get the thing set. I'm 117 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 5: aligned with Europe. I want to see if we can 118 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 5: get this thing done. You want me to be tough. 119 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 5: I could be tougher than any human being you've ever seen. 120 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 5: That'd be so tough. But you're never going to get 121 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 5: a deal that way. So that's the way it goes. 122 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: Josie does that. 123 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 4: I'm the toughest man you'll ever see. 124 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 5: But Yeah, the. 125 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 2: Point is he's saying, basically, I don't want to you know, 126 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 2: I'm trying to curry favor with both of them because 127 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 2: I'm going to have to sit down and actually do 128 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: a deal with them. 129 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 4: Why would you call well, but what is actually what 130 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 4: he's actually saying? Though, if you substitute, and I know, 131 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 4: using the word Hitler, you've lost the argument already. But 132 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: if you substitute the word Putin for Hitler or Russia 133 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 4: for Germany's Second World War, imagine that conversation in nineteen forty. 134 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 4: So what he's asking here is for complete capitulation from 135 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 4: a country that was invaded. Now, if you think that 136 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 4: Russia is going to stop at the border of Ukraine 137 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 4: or stop at the border of the territory they've already got, 138 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 4: you're dreaming. Every single time that Putin has signed a deal, 139 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 4: he's broken it. So the key thing here is that 140 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 4: who trusts Putin in this so called deal that Trump 141 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 4: thinks he's the toughest guy around that he can organize 142 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 4: it is simply surrender. 143 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: Let's move on to pets. 144 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 3: No must, This is so much fun. 145 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 4: This is much better. 146 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: In one word, did I convince you clear? 147 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: No? You did not. 148 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: I do think so. 149 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 3: You convince me that you're younger and optimistic, and I 150 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 3: love that about you. 151 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,239 Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with being. 152 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: Young, There is nothing wrong about it. 153 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 4: I will wish I was Are you a dog man 154 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 4: or a cat man? 155 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: Right, I'm definitely a dog man. I was just saying earlier, 156 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 2: I've got a wee beagle in my household, and I 157 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 2: just honestly, I'm just in love with her. And it's 158 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 2: such a I always look used to think about those 159 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: dog people in those pet people, and I think, man, 160 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 2: you guys are kind of losers. Like, you know, go 161 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 2: and hang out with some humans, make some meaningful relationships. 162 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: Why are you at home all the time with your pet? 163 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 2: But clear honestly, it's it's it's quite addictive. 164 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 3: Do you have full ownership of this dog? And are 165 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 3: you financially responsible. 166 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 2: For this dog? Yes? 167 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 3: Okay, and yes we have one remaining cat of two 168 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 3: got very sick about four weeks ago. Let's say she's 169 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 3: really the twilight of a life. But anyway, went to 170 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 3: the vet.
