Full Episode
Ukraine's President Zelensky is standing on business and pushing back against all this ridiculous talk about Donald Trump getting a Nobel Peace Prize and whether Zelensky should nominate Donald Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize. Zelensky's like, look,
Maybe I will nominate him when he starts to put pressure on Vladimir Putin, when he institutes secondary sanctions, and when he's actually tough on Putin. Then we can have conversations about me nominating him from a Nobel Peace Prize. And Zelensky went on Fox to deliver that message nonetheless. And I think it was a powerful statement by him. I want you to watch what he said.
Let's play this clip.
Do you think that President Trump should be nominated next year? Would you do it? I really, I think that we will be very happy to nominate President Trump next year, Nobel Prize, if he will, because only him for today, only he can. So if he will pressure and stop Putin, if he will, Putin at the table of dialogue, negotiations, if President Trump will stop these killings.
And I think that ceasefire, sometimes we understand that ceasefire, it's not, you know, it's not really finishing the war. But between us, when the ceasefire, this is the biggest step to the final, to finish the war. But if he will do it, I hope so. And God bless that he can do it. Of course, in this case, we will nominate him and we will be proud to congratulate him.
Wonderful.
Now, on that same interview with Fox, Zelensky then gets into the specifics and he talks about the United States needs to apply these secondary sanctions on Russia and that Trump's been saying for a long time he's going to do it. But then it's two weeks. It's three weeks. Trump sends a social media post. I'm very angry. I'm going to do it.
But then when it really comes down to it, Trump doesn't do it. And then Putin will make a post and say, oh, I think that the Nobel Peace Prize is rigged against Donald Trump. And then Donald Trump will take that flattery and then allow Putin to continue the atrocities in Ukraine. Watch what Zelensky says here. I think it's a powerful moment.
Secondary sanctions, very painful for Russia. Everybody understands it. It depends on President Trump's will. And I agree with the President. I'm asking him to support this package of secondary sanctions. And of course, not to connect it with European decisions, but I agree that Europe has to stop to buy. And by the way, Europe made big progress.
