Part 5/8:
Transitioning to geopolitics, the speaker discusses the United States' stance on the Ukraine conflict, emphasizing that it largely stems from Ukraine's and Europe's direct interests rather than solely American concerns.
He suggests that while the U.S. aims to prevent Putin from expanding his influence unchecked, the core responsibility lies with Ukraine and Europe. From this perspective, President Trump’s approach—willingness to disengage or escalate sanctions—is seen as a strategic move rather than a sign of weakness.
