Part 9/13:
During the event, the President briefly addressed international issues, notably the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. He commented on the potential for peace talks between Putin and Zelensky, noting that they are unlikely to meet soon but may be encouraged to do so in the future. The U.S. aims to facilitate peace efforts, acknowledging the enormous toll of casualties—approximately 7,000 lives lost weekly—and emphasizing the importance of ending the conflict.
He also touched on foreign policy figures like John Bolton, criticizing him as a "low life" and questioning his patriotism following a recent FBI raid, which Trump had only just learned about that morning. He expressed trust that law enforcement would handle the matter appropriately.
