00:00So, do you think that we are close to a peace deal, and do you think Russia does want to
00:04negotiate?
00:05Well, that's very much an open question.
00:09Right now, it seems to me that it would be very much in the Russian interest to simply
00:16allow nature to take its course, to allow the U.S. to ramp up pressure on the Ukrainians
00:22essentially to cave to their demands.
00:25I don't think that the Russians want to bargain against themselves at this point.
00:30But I think the overall outline of at least an interim solution acceptable to them is
00:38relatively clear, and I think that they are counting on the U.S. to deliver that to them.
