1
The President's The President's The President's Hello, Mr. President.
2
The President's Hi, how are you?
3
Hi, good.
4
The President's What would you like to know today?
5
Do you start off by telling us the latest one with Russia and Ukraine?
6
Are you expecting Zelensky to come visit you?
7
The President's We're having good — I don't know,
8
he would like to come,
9
but I think we should get a deal done first.
10
We're having good talks.
11
We started with Russia.
12
We're having some talks with Russia.
13
Ukraine is doing well.
14
I think they're pretty happy about it.
15
They'd like to see it end.
16
And we won't know for a little while, but we'll—we're making progress.
17
What are the big stings?
18
You settled eight wars, and I thought this would be one of the easier ones because of my relationship with President Putin.
19
But this is probably one of the more difficult ones.
20
There's a lot of hatred.
21
Mr. President, you said there were a few points of disagreement that were still left to be—
22
Can you tell us what those are?
23
Well, it's just standard things,
24
but people are starting to realize it's a good deal for both parties.
25
If they've got to stop the war,
26
they're losing a lot of people,
27
a lot of soldiers, mostly soldiers.
28
In that 28-point plan, this originally changed their risk of portions of that that said that Ukrainian...
29
Well, that was an original proposal,
30
and then from there we went back and forth.
31
So when it comes to ceding land to Russia,
32
is that still on the table, or has that changed?
33
Well, they're talking about going land both ways and trying to clean up a border.
34
You know, you can't go through the middle of a house.
35
You can't go through the middle of a highway.
36
So they're trying to work something.
37
It's a complicated process.
38
It doesn't go that quickly.
39
And what about the U.S security guarantees and Ukraine joining the U.S.?
40
We're working that out with Europe.
41
Europe will be largely involved in that.
42
We're working that out with Europe.
43
Europe really wants to see it end if possible.
44
There were a lot of Republicans who found that the first plan,
45
the first 28-point plan, was too favorable to Russia.
46
Have you changed that?
47
Well, that was just a map.
48
All that was is a map.
49
That was not a plan.
50
It was a concept.
51
And from there, they've taken each one of the 28 points,
52
and then you get down to 22 points.
53
A lot of them were solved,
54
and actually very favorably solved.
55
So we'll see what happens.
56
Do you think that Russia,
57
that Ukraine was being asked to give too much land back to Russia?
58
I know at one point you said they shouldn't have to get any back.
59
The President's really up.
60
Look, the way it's going,
61
if you look, it's just moving in one direction.
62
So eventually that's land that over the next couple of months might be gotten by Russia anyway.
63
So do you want to fight and lose another 50, 60,000 people?
64
Or do you want to do something now?
65
In some cases, the land is going in the other direction.
66
So they're negotiating.
67
They're trying to get it done.
68
You want to have a border?
69
You can't have a border that goes through a highway or a border that goes through the middle of a town.
70
So it doesn't work.
71
So it's a long, complicated process.
72
It's very sad because so many people are being killed.
73
What's the next step?
74
They're going to keep talking.
75
They're talking to Russia now.
76
Steve Whitcoff is going over, maybe with Jared.
77
I'm not sure about Jared going,
78
but he's involved in the process.
79
Smart guy.
80
And they're going to be meeting with President Putin,
81
I believe, next week in Moscow.
82
Next week in Moscow?
83
I think so, yes.
84
What kinds of concessions are the Russians going to have to make?
85
Well, they're making concessions.
86
They're big concessions.
87
They say stop fighting and they don't take any more land.
88
Again, it's a war that would have never happened if I was president.
89
This was not anything that was going to happen.
90
This happened because of stupidity.
91
It's too bad.
92
Mr. President.
93
So if Wyckoff is going to Russia next week,
94
does that mean that Thanksgiving deadline doesn't stand anymore for Ukraine?
95
We're going to see what happens.
96
They set up a date,
97
and the date is going to be sometime in the very near future.
98
Do you have a new deadline for a deal to be reached?
99
I don't have a deadline.
100
I just, you know, the deadline for me is when it's over.
101
I think everybody's tired of fighting at this moment.
102
They're losing too many people.
103
Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?
104
I haven't heard it.
105
No, but that's a standard thing.
106
Because he's got to sell this to Ukraine.
107
He's got to sell Ukraine to Russia.
108
That's what a dealmaker does.
109
You've got to say, look, they want this.
110
You've got to convince them with this.
111
That's a very standard form of negotiation.
112
I haven't heard it, but I heard it was standard negotiation.
113
And I would imagine he's saying the same thing to Ukraine,
114
because each party has to give and take.
115
So you're not worried that he's too pro-Russian?
116
No, I think, look, this war could go on for years,
117
and Russia's got a lot more people and a lot more soldiers.
118
So I think if Ukraine can make a deal, it's a good thing.
119
I think it's great for both.
120
Frankly, I think it's great for both.
121
But Ukraine's got a much smaller group of people.
122
They've lost a lot of people.
123
Russia's lost a lot of people.
124
But Russia has a much bigger pool of people.
125
Mr. President, are you planning to unveil a health care plan anytime soon?
126
Well, we're looking at different alternatives.
127
I mean, I like my plan the best.
128
Don't give any money to the insurance companies.
129
Give it to the people directly.
130
Let them go out and buy their own health care plan.
131
And we're looking at that, if that can work.
132
We're looking at that.
133
That's sort of taking off.
134
That's what I like.
135
Don't give the money to the insurance companies.
136
They go out.
137
They go out and buy their own plan.
138
You give the money to the people.
139
I like it the best.
140
Are you planning to spend those subsidies?
141
I'd rather not.
142
Somebody said, I want to extend them for two years.
143
I don't want to extend them for two years.
144
I'd rather not extend them at all.
145
It may be some kind of an extension may be necessary to get something else done,
146
because the Unaffordable Care Act has been a disaster.
147
It's a disaster.
148
And I said it was when it first got put in.
149
Unfortunately, we lost a couple of Republican votes,
150
and the Democrats voted for it.
151
It's a Democrat plan.
152
And the premiums are going up,
153
and it's the Democrats' fault.
154
But, you know, they are negotiating with me.
155
It's very interesting.
156
They want to see something happen.
157
Who are you talking to on a Democrat?
158
I can't tell you who, but we have...
159
A lot of Democrats want this plan to happen.
160
They would love to see the money go to the people,
161
and the people go out and get their own health care.
162
And there would be nothing like it.
163
Are you planning to replace Kash Patel as a...
164
No, he's doing a good job.
165
This week, please.
166
Kash Patel?
167
No, he's doing a great job, I think.
168
I think.
169
This week we saw those cases against James Colby and Letitia James tossed out.
170
Do you still have faith in Lindsay Halligan?
171
Oh, she's great.
172
I think she's great.
173
They got out on a technicality,
174
and you'll see what happens from here on.
175
But if you look at the actual charges,
176
I think anybody that looks at it very fairly would say,
177
boy, are they guilty.
178
So let's see what happens over the next week.
179
You know, the court didn't say you couldn't bring the case,
180
re-bring the case, or appeal the case.
181
So they have a lot of options.
182
They're going to call the shot.
183
I'm not calling the shot.
184
But Lindsey's a very talented lawyer, actually.
185
Mr. President, on Venezuela, sir,
186
are you planning to talk to Nicolás Maturá?
187
I might talk to him.
188
We'll see.
189
But we're discussing that with the different staffs.
190
We might talk about Venezuela.
191
And just talking up, the U.S this week did,
192
of course, name-hang the leader of a foreign terrorist organization.
193
So why do you want to talk to him?
194
Say it again.
195
Maduro, the U.S designated him the leader of this foreign terrorist organization.
196
Why do you want to talk to him if he's the leader?
197
If we can save lives,
198
if we can do things the easy way, that's fine.
199
And if we have to do it the hard way, that's fine, too.
200
Mr. President, do you have any reaction?
201
Well, I'm not going to tell you what the goal is.
202
You should probably know what the goal is.
203
But they've caused a lot of problems.
204
And they've sent millions of people into our country.
205
They had, I mean, they were probably the biggest abuser with Trend de Aragua and all the others that they sent in,
206
the drug dealers and drug lords,
207
the people that they sent in, the jail burnt.
208
They opened their jails and prisons and dumped them into the United States.
209
And we're not happy about it.
210
Do you have any reaction to Mayor Bowser announcing she's not running for re-election in D.C.?
211
Well, I got along with her very well.
212
I liked her.
213
We worked together.
214
D.C is now a safe community.
215
It's a great community.
216
You people know it better than I do, because you live there.
217
But D.C is now safe.
218
The restaurants are booming.
219
The place is booming.
220
We have no crime.
221
And we did that all in a period of three or four weeks and then made it better and better and better.
222
and now we're setting new records.
223
I mean, literally, it's as safe as there is anywhere in the country now.
224
And if you go back a year,
225
it was a very unsafe place.
226
Before I got here, D.C was a very unsafe, and it's our capital.
227
We have to make it safe.
228
We're doing really well in Memphis,
229
Tennessee, and we're doing well in other places.
230
The one that is really troubling is what's happening in Chicago.
231
The crime, it's a potentially great city again,
232
But the governor has totally lost control.
233
That's where you had the young lady burned.
234
That's where you had a lot of killings over the last very short period of time.
235
Killings.
236
The governor has totally lost control of the state,
237
and the mayor is grossly incompetent.
238
How was your call with the Japanese prime minister?
239
Right.
240
It was great.
241
I had a great talk.
242
I have a very good relationship with her.
243
I also had a very good talk with President Xi of China.
244
And I think that part of the world is doing fine.
245
Can you tell us about the content of your talks?
246
Mostly trade.
247
I spoke to President Xi about a lot of things,
248
but trade and buying our farm products.
249
And he said he agreed with me.
250
He's going to — I think he's going to very much surprise you on the upside.
251
I think he's going to — I asked him,
252
I'd like you to buy it a little faster.
253
I'd like you to buy more.
254
And he's more or less agreed to do that.
255
I think we will be pleasantly surprised by the actions of President Xi.
256
President Xi have a good relationship great relationship with him.
257
I like him.
258
He likes me I'm gonna be going there in April.
259
I guess you'll all be going with me,
260
but I'm gonna be going to China in April With Japan likewise.
261
I just came back from Japan and We have a great relationship the new prime minister myself.
262

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
