00:00Donald Trump has now changed the deadline for Vladimir Putin to come up with a solution, a ceasefire.
00:06He said 10 to 12 days. Originally, it was going to be in September.
00:09What do you realistically expect to happen in 10 to 12 days?
00:14I'm not sure I know what I expect to happen because Donald Trump is such a moving target.
00:19You know, he never really comes down decisively on the side of a particular option,
00:25or at least quite often does not come down on the side of a particular option.
00:29So I'm hoping that at the end of 10 to 12 days, we will see a very decisive statement imposing sanctions on Russia,
00:38but more importantly, secondary sanctions on China and India and the countries that have been buying Russian oil and gas since the start of the war,
00:47because that's what we really need.
00:49Sanctions against Russia are not very important.
00:52The United States does not have a lot of bilateral trade with the Russian Federation.
00:56It's just not a big target.
00:59The big target is those third countries which have been continuing to buy Russian energy.
01:05They're the ones we really need to crack down on.
