00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, Radio News.

2
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 2: Good Morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here

3
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 2: are the stories we're following today.

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 3: Karen, we begin this morning with the passing of a

5
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 3: civil rights icon, The Reverend Jesse Jackson.

6
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 4: Has died at the age of eighty four.

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 3: Bloomberg's Alexis Christoffers joins us with more. Good morning, Alexis,

8
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 3: Good morning.

9
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 5: The famed civil rights leader who marched alongside Martin Luther

10
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 5: King Junior and later ran for president twice, died peacefully

11
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 5: this morning, surrounded by his loved ones. According to his family,

12
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 5: a cause of death was not immediately given. Jackson revealed

13
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,919
Speaker 5: he had Parkinson's in twenty seventeen and had been hospitalized

14
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 5: since November after being diagnosed with a degenerative condition. Jackson's

15
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 5: activism spanned decades, including two runs for the Democratic presidential

16
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 5: nomination in nineteen eighty four and eighty eight. In two thousand,

17
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 5: President Clinton awarded Jackson the country's highest honor, the Presidential

18
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 5: Medal of Freedom, citing his decades of work to make

19
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 5: the world a better place. Jesse Jackson has survived by

20
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 5: his six children and his wife of sixty years in

21
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 5: New York. Alexis Christophers Bloomberg Radio.

22
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 2: All right, Alexis, thank you. We now turned to a

23
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: couple of high profile talks in Geneva. The US and

24
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 2: Irun are sent to me for a second round of

25
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 2: nuclear talks as they seek to avoid renewed conflict in

26
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: the Middle East. On Air Force One, President Trump said

27
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: he will be following the talks closely, so.

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 6: I'll be involved in those talks indirectly, and they'll be

29
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 6: very important, and we'll see what can happen. Specifically, Rants

30
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 6: are very tough negotiate with it.

31
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 4: I think they want to make a deal.

32
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 6: I don't think they want the consequences of not making

33
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 6: a deal.

34
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 3: They want to make a deal, and along with President Trump,

35
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 3: Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he's hopeful Tehran and

36
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 3: Washington broker in agreement. Rubio spoke with Bloomberg News editor

37
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 3: in chief John Micklethwaite on the sidelines of the Munich

38
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 3: Security Conference.

39
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 7: I think it's pretty clear that Aron will never be

40
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 7: allowed to have a nuclear weapon, and that that poses

41
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 7: a threat not just to the United States, to Europe,

42
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 7: to world security and to the region. There's no doubt

43
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 7: about it. The second is, we obviously want to have

44
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 7: forces in the region because Iran has shown the willingness

45
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 7: and the capability to lash and strike out at the

46
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 7: United States presence in the region. You know, we have

47
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 7: bases because of our alliances in the region, and Iran

48
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 7: has shown in the past that they're willing to attack

49
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 7: us and or threat in our basis. So we have

50
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 7: to have sufficient firepower in the region to ensure that

51
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 7: they don't make a mistake and come after us and

52
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 7: trigger something larger.

53
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 3: Secretary of State Marco Rubio speaking with Bloomberg editor in

54
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 3: chief John mckelthwaite, Iranian officials have expressed willingness to discuss

55
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 3: their nuclear enrichment activities, but they've tied any concessions to

56
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: the potential easing of US sanctions.

57
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 4: Well, Nathan.

58
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: President Trump is reaping high praise on Vice President Jdvans

59
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, but fell short of

60
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 2: saying if he would support either one of them to

61
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: lead the Republican presidential ticket in the twenty twenty eight election.

62
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 6: Something I don't have to worry about now. I've got

63
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 6: three years to go, so it's something I don't have

64
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 6: to burn JD's fantastic at markers at both.

65
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: Granted, President Trump made the comments to reporters on board

66
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: Air Force One.

67
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,119
Speaker 3: And as we approach the fourth anniversary of Russia's full

68
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: scale invasion of Ukraine Careen, there will also be US

69
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 3: broker talks between Ukrainian and Russian officials in Geneva. Bloomberg's

70
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 3: Hugo Miller has the latest from Switzerland.

71
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 8: It's going to be up to whether the lead US envoys,

72
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 8: Steve Whitcoff and Jared Kushner can really kind of bring

73
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 8: the sides together, knock some heads together. They've also brought

74
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 8: their own idea of a US free economic zone. But

75
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 8: that's interesting, and that's one thing that both the Russians

76
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 8: and the Ukrainians agree on. They're both rather cool on

77
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 8: the idea of a kind of neutral free economic zone.

78
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 8: So there's really going to be a full day, perhaps

79
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 8: two days of discussions here in Geneva, but no one

80
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 8: is too optimistic that a lot of headways going to

81
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 8: get made.

82
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 3: Bloomberg's Hugo Miller says the intensity of military strikes has

83
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 3: risen sharply on both sides this month, despite US efforts

84
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: to end the war.

85
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: Well back here in the nation's capital, Nathan, the Department

86
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: of Homeland Security is still shut down amid a congressional

87
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: funding impass. According to an aid to send it Minority

88
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 2: Leader Chuck Schumer, the Democrats have sent a counter offer

89
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 2: on limits their demanding on immigration enforcement activities to the

90
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: Republicans and the White House. The lapse in funding could

91
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: last for weeks with Congress on a recess.

92
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 3: And there's yet more fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files.

93
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 3: Karen billionaire Tom Pritzker says he is stepping down as

94
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 3: executive chairman of Hyatt Hotels, citing his association with the

95
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 3: disgraced financier. In a news release, Pritzker says he exercised

96
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: terrible judgment in maintaining contact with Epstein Angelaine Maxwell. He

97
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 3: says there's no excuse for failing to distance himself sooner. Meanwhile,

98
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 3: Republican Congressman Thomas Massey is taking aim at Attorney General

99
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 3: Pam Bondi for the Justice Department's handling of the files.

100
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 9: Ultimately, it's her who is responsible for the document production.

101
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 9: According to our law, the Attorney General, it's not Todd Blanche.

102
00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 4: It's not the people below.

103
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 9: Then you can assign asks to people, but you can't

104
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 9: assign your responsibility.

105
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 3: Republican Thomas Massey appeared on ABC's This Week Heard Sundays

106
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 3: on Bloomberg Radio. The latest trunch of Justice Department documents,

107
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: as well as a cash of emails from Epstein's Yahoo

108
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 3: account show he also worked behind the scenes at the

109
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 3: World Economic Forum to help his friends score accommodations and

110
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: meetings with billionaires and government officials at the event. The

111
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 3: DOJ files include messages between Epstein and World Economic Forum

112
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 3: President Borga Brenda. Brenda says he had been completely unaware

113
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 3: of Epstein's criminal activities.

114
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 2: Nathan authorities are saying a shooting during a Rhode Island

115
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 2: youth hockey game has left three people dead, including the shooter.

116
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 2: Authorities say they believe the shooting was a targeted attack

117
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: stemming from a family dispute. And here's Potucket Police Chief

118
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 2: Tina Gonsalves. We probably had about one hundred people within

119
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: the station that we talked to.

120
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 4: We can also tell you.

121
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 6: That a good Samaritan stepped in and interjected in this scene,

122
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 6: and that's probably what led to a swift end of

123
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 6: this tragic event.

124
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 2: And that's paw Tucket Police Chief TENA. Gunsalvis, who says

125
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: the shooter died from an apparent self inflicted gun to

126
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 2: shot wound. Gun Salvis identify the shooter as Robert Dorgan,

127
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: who said she also went by the name ROBERTA.

128
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 4: Esposito.

129
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 3: Well, Karen, let's get to the latest on Nancy Guthrie's disappearance.

130
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 3: The search for Today's show hosts Savannah Guthrie's mother is

131
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 3: now into a third week. Investigators are consulting with management

132
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 3: at Walmart to develop leads. The Ozark Trail Hiker pack

133
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 3: backpack that the suspect was wearing in surveillance video from

134
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 3: Nancy Guthries's porch is sold exclusively at Walmart. Investigators also

135
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 3: say a glove found near the home was sent for

136
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: DNA testing. Steven Jensen is a former investigator from the

137
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 3: FBI's Washington Field office.

138
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 10: Descriptors like the clothing, the globe, the unique culture that

139
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 10: he was wearing.

140
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 4: Can we identify where this was purchased?

141
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 10: And it sounds like Walmart is a prime retailer for

142
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 10: many of these items, and then you're looking for patterns

143
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 10: inside of the retail data.

144
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 3: It's former FBI investigator Stephen Jensen. P mc County Sheriff

145
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 3: Chris Nanos also says members of Guthrie's family, including siblings

146
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 3: and spouses, have been ruled out as suspects. President Trump

147
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 3: told The New York Post he would ask the Justice

148
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: Department to seek the death penalty if Nancy Guthrie is

149
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 3: not returned alive.

150
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 2: Nathan, Let's turn to the markets now. Futures are lower

151
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 2: as Wall Street returns to a holiday shortened trading week,

152
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 2: and it will once again be a busy week for earning.

153
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: To get a preview with Bloomberg's Charlie.

154
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 11: Pellett, Investors are looking beyond the headline and guidance numbers

155
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 11: for clarity on AI capital investments. Mark Lushini is chief

156
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 11: investment strategist at Jenny Montgomery Scott. He's watching revenue.

157
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 10: I mean, right now we're seeing not only estimates obviously,

158
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 10: as we're closing out confessions. He's in for the first

159
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,840

166
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,960

Speaker 2: Hey then shares a bhp. They are at more than

172
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 2: one percent in Europe. The world's largest minor posted earnings

173
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: at the upper end of analyst expectations. A year's long

174
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 2: effort to shore up copper production, combined with a historic

Speaker 2: ore business time now for a look at some of

177
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: the other stories making news in New York and around

178
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,760

179
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: Michael Barr.

180
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 4: Michael, good morning, Good morning, Karen.

181
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 12: It is a tragic day for an Indianapolis community. Authorities,

182
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 12: say a beech Grove officer was shot and killed Monday

183
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 12: while responding to a domestic incident, and another officer was wounded.

184
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 12: Thirty three year old officer Brian La was killed at

185
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,959

186
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 12: Indiana State Police said the suspect was caught.

187
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,439
Speaker 13: An alert community member flagged down a police officer and said, hey,

188
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 13: something's not right, and they were correct. They pointed us

189
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 13: in the direction of where we they believe the suspect

190
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 13: was hiding. An impd Swatt was able to move in

191
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 13: within minutes of that tip.

192
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 12: Sergeant Pernes says officer Elliot had been with the department

193
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 12: a little over the year. The second officer is expected

194
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 12: to survive. A federal judge has ordered and exhibit about

195
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 12: nine people enslaved by George Washington to be restored at

196

197
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,840

198
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 12: The City of Philadelphia sued last month after the National

201
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 12: family confirmed he died Monday at his Virginia Farm. Dval

202
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 12: sat his most quotable line. It came from The Apocalypse.

203
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,359
Speaker 4: Now Hello, the Spill.

206
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 12: role as Tom Hagen and The Godfather and The Godfather

207
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 12: Part two.

208
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 6: Nobody has ever gone down a New York police captain.

209
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 12: Never.

210
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 4: It would be disastrous.

211
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 3: All the five families would come after you, Sonny, the

212
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 3: Corleone family would be outcast. Even the old nice political

213
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 3: protection would run for COVID.

214
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,000

Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business opp This is Bloomberg Daybreak.

238
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 4: Good morning on Nathan Hager.

239
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,559
Speaker 3: Geneva is the epicenter of diplomacy today, with the US

240
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 3: holding high level talks both on Iran's nuclear program and

241
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 3: the war in Ukraine. President Trump says he will be

242
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 3: involved in the Iran discussion indirectly.

243
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 6: Typically, Rans are very tough negotiator and good negotiators, or

244
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 6: band I would say they bad negotiators because we could

245
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 6: have had a deal instead of sending the V twos

246
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 6: into knockout their nuclear potential.

247
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 3: I was President Trump of Board Air Force one last night.

248
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 3: This morning, were joined by Bloomberg Chief Europe correspondent Oliver

249
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 3: Crook ollie, Good morning. What are we expecting from this

250
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 3: next round of Iran talks?

251
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,079
Speaker 15: Yeah, well, listen in a very tall order for the

252
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 15: Trump administration trying to resolve or at least make progress

253
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 15: on two of the most sort of complicated geopolitical crises

254
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 15: and situations that we've got, both Russia and Ukraine, and

255
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 15: of course Iran and the United States, which are now

256
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 15: in open dialogue about kind of what the future of

257
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 15: that relationship looks like. What the United States would like

258
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 15: to achieve is to get forward on a sort of

259
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 15: framework for the sort of denuclearization, the sort of commitment

260
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 15: against enriching uranium, those sorts of things with the Iranians

261
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 15: want in return is sort of sanctioned relief. And given

262
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 15: sort of how tall an order this is, we should

263
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 15: say that these conversations with Iran, unlike the ones with

264
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 15: Russia and Ukraine, these are still at the very sort

265
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 15: of early stages here. But really upping the stakes here

266
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 15: is the fact that there's a second aircraft carrier that's

267
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 15: headed into the regions. We also had over the last

268
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 15: couple of days the Iranians Revolutionary Guard. They're holding exercises

269
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 15: again in potential preparation for some kind of conflict. And

270
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 15: that really is the kind of stakes here that have

271
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 15: been set for the stage, whether it's President Trump, whether

272
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 15: it's Mark or Rubio for the last couple of days,

273
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 15: basically all saying that they prefer a diplomatic resolution to

274
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 15: this issue, but making very clear that forrest is certainly

275
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 15: an option that is on the table.

276
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 4: So we'll be watching very closely.

277
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 15: In Geneva, they've been speaking for about about two hours

278
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,599
Speaker 15: now so far this morning, so we see if we

279
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 15: get anything out of that. And as far as the

280
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 15: markets are concerned, as we take as a sort of

281
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 15: barometer for how worried they are, you know, the oil

282
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 15: market looking pretty sedate this morning, so we're watching very

283
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 15: closely what we get on that, certainly.

284
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 3: But with those two aircraft carriers in the region, does

285
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 3: that suggest something about the timing that the US is

286
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 3: looking for in terms of hammering out a final deal here.

287
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 15: Well, I think that that's sort of a very sort

288
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 15: of interesting side of it, right, because this is something

289
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 15: that is obviously intended to escalatet the pressure on the Iranians.

290
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 15: But given how complicated any kind of deal between the

291
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 15: two sides is going to have to be. You know,

292
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 15: I don't imagine that this is something you can just

293
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 15: hammer out in a couple of summits. The first round

294
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 15: of talks was on February the sixth. This is only

295
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 15: the second round of talks. When you think about the

296
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,439
Speaker 15: difficulty and the diplomacy here required in order to strike

297
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 15: a deal, this is not something that is likely to

298
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 15: happen overnight. That being said, we have been surprised in

299
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 15: the past by Trump foreign policy efforts that have yielded

300
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 15: something that was completely unexpected. We think, of course, of

301
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 15: the truce or the ceasefire that was arrived at between

302
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 15: the Israelis and Hamas, which really is something that at

303
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 15: first I think there was very little optimism could really

304
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 15: be achieved and then suddenly sort of came into fruition

305
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 15: rather quickly.

306
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: And in terms of the Russia Ukraine discussions, I've kind

307
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 3: of lost track of which round we're on there. But

308
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 3: are we expecting any breakthroughs in Geneva today?

309
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think that the sort of expectations are fairly

310
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 15: low from the sort of renewed effort with the trilateral

311
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 15: talks that involve the United States, the Ukrainians, and the

312
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 15: Russians were basically this is the third meeting in about

313
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 15: three weeks, so there certainly has been an increase of

314
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 15: the cadence of these sort of negotiations. That being said, again,

315
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 15: you listen to Marco Rubio while he's been in Munich,

316
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 15: while he's been in Budapest over the last couple of days,

317
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 15: he's basically saying, some days I feel better about it

318
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 15: than others, but at the end of the day, you know,

319
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 15: I'm not really in a position to say whether or

320
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 15: not we're any we're any closer to a resolution for

321
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 15: this war. What we did hear, interestingly from Zelenski at

322
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 15: the Munich Security conference over the weekend was basically saying

323
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 15: that if we can negotiate a ceasefire for two months,

324
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 15: then the Ukrainians are willing to hold an election in Ukraine,

325
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 15: which is, you know, a sort of meaningful step from

326
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 15: the President of Ukraine, particularly since the Trump administration in

327
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 15: Trump himself has put some pressure on the Ukrainians to

328
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 15: do that. That being said, we should also say that

329
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 15: the Russians have been absolutely hammering the energy infrastructure over

330
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 15: in Ukraine, and we should just say, just to give

331
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 15: people a reminder here, the temperature in Kiev right now

332
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 15: is seventeen degrees fahrenheit with a low of ten degrees

333
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 15: without about hundreds of thousands of people across the country
