Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news, single.
Speaker 2: Best idea and a little bit of history here what
Speaker 2: we've done at Bloomberg surveillance and a zillion years ago
Speaker 2: Bloomberg on the economy. When we started this effort, we
Speaker 2: didn't do politics, we didn't do international relations, and some
Speaker 2: of our statistical people said there was a real interest
Speaker 2: in it, and so I very carefully tested years and
Speaker 2: years ago doing what in America we call international relations
Speaker 2: over in foreign policy would be another phrase over in Europe.
Speaker 2: And I was thunderstruck by the response. It's really become
Speaker 2: a heritage of the program. And when you have Trump
Speaker 2: Putin Trump, you want to call up people that you
Speaker 2: know with experience on this relationship. I started with the
Speaker 2: wonderful Marshall Goldman of Wellesley and Harvard years ago, otherworthies,
Speaker 2: but no one has been more effective than Angeli's stent
Speaker 2: will get to her in a moment. Here is Richard
Speaker 2: Portis of the London Business School, with all of his
Speaker 2: expertise on Russia.
Speaker 3: Putin's got the cards, partly because Trump is willing to
Speaker 3: let him play them, and he's playing Trump. But Trump
Speaker 3: seems to think that's just fine, and that maybe he'll
Speaker 3: get a Nobel Peace Prize out of this. But as
Speaker 3: I say, I think the Europeans are not going to
Speaker 3: play ball with that kind but a kind of a
Speaker 3: deal that Putin has in mind, and that's going to
Speaker 3: be a big area of conflict between the europe and
Speaker 3: the United States potentially if Trump tries to pursue it.
Speaker 2: Richard portis there of the United Kingdom of Great Britain
Speaker 2: of the London Business School. Angelos Stent was my first
Speaker 2: call the day of the invasion of Ukraine. Her book
Speaker 2: Putin's World was my book of the year. I made
Speaker 2: my book of the year in February, that's how important
Speaker 2: her book is. It's just a great one volume read
Speaker 2: of the foundational beliefs of Vladimir Putin. Angelus Stent of
Speaker 2: the Brookings Institute of Georgetown University.
Speaker 4: On this historic day, I would say, we're more or
Speaker 4: less all living in Putin's world at the moment, right
Speaker 4: we're waiting to see what he will say. I think
Speaker 4: you have to understand that Putin is not interested in
Speaker 4: a ceasefire. Now he said that in principle he's interested
Speaker 4: in it, but he still believes that Russia is winning
Speaker 4: and he wants more concessions from Ukraine. President Trump obviously
Speaker 4: would like Putin to accept a ceasefire. He has said
Speaker 4: that what they're going to talk about is territories, land,
Speaker 4: the nuclear power plant. I'm assuming he means the biggest
Speaker 4: one in Europe in Upprarisia, which the Russians now occupied,
Speaker 4: and then.
Speaker 2: He takes ACCTS.
Speaker 5: Now. I don't really know what he means by assets,
Speaker 5: but I would think that Putin's going to string him
Speaker 5: along on the ceasefire. What Putin's interested in is the
Speaker 5: restoration or hes Russian relations.
Speaker 2: Angel's stent of the Brookings Institute, and then Richard portis
Speaker 2: before as well. Again, look to all of Bloomberg's coverage
Speaker 2: here with the Henry Winter and others here, decades of
Speaker 2: experience in Moscow and of course in Eastern Europe. Now
Speaker 2: on Ukraine, on Russia, on the United States, on your
Speaker 2: community across the nation. We're on Apple, CarPlay, Android, Auto,
Speaker 2: Sirius XM Special Good Morning in ninety nine one FM
Speaker 2: in Angelo's stents at Washington, Bloomberg eleven three to zero
Speaker 2: in New York in ninety two nine FM in Boston.
Speaker 2: We're on YouTube and on YouTube podcasts. This is a
Speaker 2: single best idea seven
