Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news.
Speaker 2: The single best idea and on short notice with the
Speaker 2: shocking headlines out this weekend, the team put together a
Speaker 2: great set of conversations on this historic, truly historic moment
Speaker 2: in Washington. I think it's in the summer August ninety degrees.
Speaker 2: Everybody doing what you do in the middle of August.
Speaker 2: It's all crept up on us. The gathering of NATO
Speaker 2: leaders in Washington today on an emergency basis, We've never
Speaker 2: seen this, back to the Atlanta Charter of nineteen forty one.
Speaker 2: We chose to speak to Angela's Stent. She's at the
Speaker 2: Brookings Institution with decades of experience, including the late Marshall Goldman.
Speaker 2: I would say definitive on Russia, on Eastern Europe and
Speaker 2: NATO diploma. See Angela's stent. On the distance from Anchorage
Speaker 2: to Washington.
Speaker 3: It's going to be very difficult.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: President Trump completely reversed himself. He went into the discussions
Speaker 3: in Alaska saying they had to be a ceasefire first,
Speaker 3: and then they discussed the conditions. And now so, I mean,
Speaker 3: the thing that the Europeans and Ukraine have to do
Speaker 3: today is to persuade President Trump that that's just not
Speaker 3: viable and that they have to push for a ceasefire.
Speaker 2: First, we continue with Angela's st Paul Sweeney asked her
Speaker 2: about Congress and people in the Republican Party who fled
Speaker 2: out disagree with their president.
Speaker 3: We know that a number of the US Senators, including Republicans,
Speaker 3: were very concerned about what happened in Alaska and about
Speaker 3: President Trump really seving Putin what Putin wanted. So there
Speaker 3: is the question is will the Congress stand up and
Speaker 3: you know, try and persuade the Trump administrationarticularly the Republicans
Speaker 3: at Congress that they have to really profress.
Speaker 2: On and Angela's stent of the Brookings Institution, We're on
Speaker 2: podcasts on Apple, on Spotify, and on YouTube podcasts. It's
Speaker 2: single best idea.
