All right, Alexander, let's talk about the diplomacy that is about to take place in Saudi Arabia between the United States and Ukraine.

From what I understand, the latest reports are that there is not going to be a meeting between Russia and the United States directly after the meeting between, I believe it's Rubio, Whitkoff,

and Waltz, along with, they're going to be meeting with Yermak and his team.

Zelensky is not going to be there.

He is not being allowed to participate in this meetings.

I think that's significant.

That says a lot.

But let's talk about the diplomacy. Once again, we're getting a lot of reports about what the U.S. is going to offer Ukraine, what Ukraine is going to tell the United States. We're getting reports about what Putin is ready to concede. It's in a ceasefire from Bloomberg. I don't believe these reports, but we're getting them.

We're getting reports from NBC News, which claims that Trump wants not only a mineral

deal, but he wants negotiations, and he wants some sort of concession from Ukraine that

they're willing to cede territory to Russia. I don't have an

understanding as to what exactly the territory that they want to see to Russia. What that means? Does

that mean the current front line? Does that mean something more? I don't know. NBC's not telling us.

And we're getting the counteroffer from Ukraine, which is very much along the lines of

what Stamer and Macron pitched to Trump, which is a no-fly zone, effectively, a no-fly zone,

and then European troops in Ukraine. So anyway, that's kind of the information that's floating

around the diplomacy that's going to take place in Saudi Arabia. Once again, I don't know if these

reports are true. Who knows? We'll find out. We'll find out in the next couple of days, I guess.

Anyway, what are your thoughts on the diplomacy that is going to take place between the United States and

Ukraine? I think the best thing to do about all of these reports is to put them to one side,

actually, because there's so much that's floating around, which is completely contradictory

and inconsistent.
