The decision to halt the visas followed outreach from multiple congressional offices.

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

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

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

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.

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

They're coming here tomorrow because they're supposed to come here tomorrow. We invited them to come.

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).

I'm not saying we're on the verge of a peace deal, but I am saying that we saw movement.

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

It allows us to now target what they're operating and to use other elements of American power, intelligence agencies, the Department of Defense, whatever ... to target these groups if we have an opportunity to do it.

Allows us to now target what they're operating and to use other elements of American power — intelligence agencies, the Department of Defense, whatever — to target these groups if we have an opportunity to do it.

It becomes a national security issue.

It's no longer a law enforcement issue.

The Supreme Court has made clear for decades that visa holders or other aliens cannot use the First Amendment to shield otherwise impermissible actions taken to support designated foreign terrorist organizations like Hamas, Hizballah, or…

I think what we have is a better understanding of the conditions under which Russia would be prepared to end the war.
