| 0:00.0 | All right, Alexander, let's start things off with Elensky's trip to the U.S., and he was in the U.S. on Monday. |
| 0:10.9 | Actually, he was in Argentina for the inauguration of Malay. |
| 0:14.5 | I don't know if you want to comment about that very quickly. |
| 0:17.5 | And then he flew to the United States, And today he's meeting with Biden. And there are |
| 0:25.4 | reports that he's going to meet with various senators, as well as with the Speaker of the House, |
| 0:31.5 | Johnson. And I think that's probably the big meeting to try and get Johnson to approve the $61 billion. |
| 0:38.7 | But there's really not much information as to the reason for Zelensky's trip to the United States. |
| 0:46.8 | I think the trip to Argentina was a cover. |
| 0:50.2 | I think the Biden White House told Malay invite him to Buenos Aires, and that'll give us an excuse to invite him to the United States instead of telling Zelensky from Kiev, come to the U.S. now. We want to talk to you. It provides a little bit of a cover and doesn't make it look like the Biden White House is in such panic mode. That's just my thoughts about the trip to Argentina. |

| 1:29.9 | the trip to Buenos Aires by Zelensky. It has all the looks of diplomatic cover, a providing |
| 1:38.4 | cover, not to Zelensky, but to the White House. They know that for many people in Washington, |
| 1:44.9 | he is a deeply unpopular person, |
| 1:48.0 | and that the White House, |
| 1:50.3 | that the President has suffered political damage |
| 1:55.2 | by the closeness of his apparent association with Zelensky. |
| 2:00.0 | So this way, the White House is able to say, |
| 2:02.5 | well, you know, he was conveniently in the Americas to meet with Malay. So what more natural thing |
| 2:09.8 | to do than to invite him to come to Washington and have our discussion there. So just to say this, |
| 2:16.3 | I think you're absolutely right. |
| 2:19.1 | And it's the first time I've heard anybody mention that. |
