0:00.0 | Professor, thank you for doing this. |
0:02.4 | The arc of, and it's not the topic of today's conversation, but the arc of your career |
0:06.7 | as someone who's just watched it pretty carefully all of these years. |
0:09.5 | You've wound up where I think all of us want to be, which is universally respected, |
0:13.9 | regarded as an Oracle. |
0:14.8 | It must be sort of nice to look back and be vindicated. |
0:18.5 | So anyway, so I'm honored to have you. |
0:22.7 | Where are we in Ukraine right now? |

1:46.2 | and here we're talking mainly about the Europeans, is willing to cut a deal that's acceptable |
1:51.2 | to the Russians. So there's no way you're going to have a diplomatic settlement to this war. |
1:58.0 | It's going to be settled on the battlefield battlefield and the Russians are going to win an ugly |
2:02.7 | victory and you're going to have a frozen conflict. Why can't you have a negotiated settlement? |
2:10.1 | Because Russia has a set of demands. There are three main demands and I'll spell them out in a second. |
