| 0:00.0 | It's Wednesday, November 13, 2024. I'm Albert Moller, and this is the briefing, a daily analysis of news and events from a Christian worldview. |
| 0:14.4 | Well, speaking of worldview, world leaders are responding to the 2024 presidential election and the election of Donald Trump to a second |
| 0:23.3 | term as president of the United States. The return of former President Trump, now president-elect |
| 0:28.8 | Donald Trump, is setting the stage for an unprecedented amount of conversation on the international |
| 0:34.9 | scene. That's true of a climate summit being held right now in |
| 0:39.3 | Azerbaijan. It is also true in world capitals all over the globe. It's also catching global |

| 1:39.4 | nation against nation, you're talking about wars, You're talking about alliances. You are talking about |
| 1:44.8 | people. When we talk about Russia invading Ukraine, we are talking about two men in particular, |
| 1:51.6 | Vladimir Putin, who is the autocrat of Russia, who decided to invade Ukraine, and we're talking |
| 1:57.3 | about President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, who has come to personify |
| 2:02.0 | Ukraine in world global terms. As you are thinking about the United States, the president of the |
