| 0:00.0 | All right, Alexander, let's talk about the sanctions situation with Russia, connected to Project Ukraine, and Trump a couple of days ago put out his truth social post, his ultimatum to NATO, which was stop buying Russian oil and tariff China, 50 to 100%. And then he's all in when it comes to |
| 0:25.8 | sanctions against Russian. And there will be major sanctions, he said, in his truth social post. |
| 0:32.2 | Anyway, he's given various media interviews as well. And he's pretty much said the same thing as what he posted |
| 0:38.5 | on Truth Social. We have Lindsey Graham, who continues to push the bone-crushing sanctions |
| 0:44.8 | on Russia, and he says he has the support in the Senate to move forward with the secondary |
| 0:51.5 | sanctions, 500% bone-crushing secondary sanctions on China and India. |

| 1:56.2 | What's left for the Europeans? |
| 1:58.8 | I mean, are they getting the hint? Are they getting the picture now of what Trump is telling them? |
| 2:05.6 | The truth social posts that Trump made, which you are alluding to, I can absolutely guarantee to you, has had an absolutely electrifying effect around Europe. |
| 2:21.0 | It has shocked the Europeans profoundly. |
| 2:24.1 | And the proof of that is the way it's been covered in the European media. |
