I'm not saying they're going to leave that room with a peace deal, but I think the fact that people are now talking to each other: This wasn't happening for three and a half years.

So, tomorrow, we'll be meeting with President Zelenskyy. We'll be meeting with European leaders.

Children should be returned to their families. We- on that position, I don't think there's any ambiguity on our side.

Well, ultimately, yes. But, I mean, what he means by root causes is this long historical complaints that we've heard repeatedly.

This is such a stupid media narrative that they’re coming here tomorrow because Trump is going to bully Zelensky into a bad deal.

Well, ultimately, yeah. But I mean, what he means by root causes is this long historical complaints that we've heard repeatedly.

Our goal here is to have a peace agreement to end this war.

The United States is not in a position to accept anything or reject anything, because ultimately, it's up to the Ukrainians.

Well, Putin has already seized land by force, and that, in and of itself, is not a positive precedent.

I feel perfectly safe

It will require both sides to make concessions. It will require both sides to get things they're asking for.

We want to wind up with a peace deal that ends this war so Ukraine can go on with the rest of their lives and rebuild their country and be assured that this is never going to happen again.

That's not an unreasonable request. That's something that needs to be worked on.

It was a lie. It was a lie.

I would not support that.

We've been working with these people for weeks, for weeks on this stuff.

It would be a very big move by the president if he were to offer a US commitment to a security guarantee. That will be his decision to make.

You’re saying talks are over. For the foreseeable future, for the next year or year-and-a-half, there’s no more talks, because there’s no one else in the world that can talk to him (Putin).
