fox news interview. well, this was a phone interview with a fox news radio show.asked a lot about ukraine, as you might expect, in the course of that interview. you know, you've been discussing it already. obviously, we had those comments on social media a couple of days ago in which president trump called the ukrainian president a dictator. this interview sort of picked up that baton and continued to run with it. very critical of volodymyr zelensky, saying that he had essentially led his country to ruin over the past few years that he had spurned this recent good faith offer by america, as donald trump was describing it, to broker a deal, as you've heard, mr trump essentially said that they've done nothing. he said he was friends with emmanuel macron. no attempts to talk to russia, he said. at the feet of those two leaders as he does at of uk—us relations? nervousness in europe about what this policy position from the us president is going to mean in the long run. of the interview that you've just conducted there, with president trump, a negotiating tactic, this

in regard to discuss gauze on friday, trump dialed back on his plan and an interview with fox news radio, saying he only recommends it and wouldn't impose that. the arab league is expected to respond at an extraordinary meeting in cairo, scheduled for next month to meet them evident, go out to 0 for inside story. the . let's bring you know, a pedal of guests to discuss all of this today in washington dc with joined by dani, odessa, she's executive director of the gulf international forum. electra georgetown university in london. you'll see medical book is senior consulting fellow, a chest of the house. and in the mound, jordan diode kotob is a publishing in june list and also of the state of palestine. now thank you all 3 of you for joining us, don. yet let me start with you on this summit that took place in riyadh and he lost a few hours who attended and what was the i'm so the summit consisted of the 6 golf corporation council countries and egypt and jordan and it, it was an unofficial meeting actually, as they stated, but clearly it is to address uh, the elephant in the room, which is

today" white house correspondent francesca chambers and josh kraushaar fox news radio political analysthen miller kind of lay it all out there at the white house. what's your take of this 30 days? >> well, it's hard to believe it's only been a month. it feels like it's been a year with all the executive orders, a lot of disruption across the board with the federal bureaucracy. a lot of chaos and disruption on the foreign policy stage as we have learned this week. look, you know, there is some new polls out this week it. looks like donald trump still has higher job approval numbers right now than he did almost throughout that first term. but they are a little bit on the decline. and i think the big concern if you are the trump administration is that there is growing worries about the state of the economy inflation is still a nagging worry for a lot of the americans, including a lot of those republican voters that backed him in hopes that the price of groceries would go down and price of eggs would go down and so on. so, you know, i think the one concern if you're the trump administration

guy benson political editor at town hall.com host of the guy weaponson show on fox news radio.it sounded promising. i think there were ukrainian activists licensed to the nuances of some of the president's answers and got worried that he is going to give away the store in this negotiation. is he going to meet with putin separately in saudi arabia first and interest is just doubts or questions about how that negotiation is going to go. >> yeah, we just like any conversation around the middle east has to start with october 7th and what hamas did. with this conflict must be said russia started it. a war of aggression completely legitimate and that's a starting point. we are now years into it, hundreds of thousands of deaths. we heard some probably difficult truths from the defense secretary today on this front. the breaking newsing act, which is extremely difficult is house do you extract the united states and both of the parties in this war from an ongoing crisis without seeming to have rewarded russia for what they did. there have to be some concessions from both sides. be painf

. >> um, uh, the president had an interview on fox news radio. he talked about a lot, but he also talked about the plan forward for the legislation to get his agenda through congress. and the president first said that he wanted one big, beautiful bill, and then it was fine with 1 or 2. then he went back to one. and then in this interview, he said it could be 3 or 10 bills, as long as it adds up to the same thing. more bills for the president's agenda. it really doesn't make it any more likely that it gets everything he wants right? >> well, that's right. and also, republicans only have so many bites at the reconciliation apple. uh, the reconciliation process, the budget reconciliation process is sort of what makes this possible. being able to do this with just republican support, it's filibuster proof in the senate. they only need the 53 senators that they have on their side of the aisle. so anything that's done outside, outside of that process of president trump is is eyeing something outside of the reconciliation process at the end of the day,

i want you to take a listen to this interview on fox news radio. this is from yesterday. >> the way to do it is my plan. i think that's the plan that really works, but i'm not forcing it. i'm just going to sit back and recommend it. and then the u.s. would own the site. it would be no, no hamas, and there'd be development, and you'd start all over again with a clean slate. >> now, we haven't really seen the gulf allies step in here. are they starting to step up to try to come up with an alternative to trump's actually logistically impossible proposal of removing the palestinians from gaza? >> yeah, christina. >> you were kind when you said logistically impossible. it's a it's a ridiculous concept to even. >> consider united states taking. >> over gaza. and. >> you know, to your. >> question, the problem. >> here is. >> that what has just happened over the last several. >> weeks is that president. >> trump has blown the opportunity. >> to. >> take advantage of this calm period. >> the first calm in. >> almost a year and a half, to really negotiate a

trump speaking to fox news radio suggesting that zelenskyy essentially had somehow failed to stop the war. he did admit russia attacked at the beginning of it, that some kind of concession. here's what he had to say. >> and then he complains that he's not at a meeting that we're having with saudi arabia trying to intermediate a peace. well, he's been at meetings for three years with a very. with the president who didn't know what the hell he was doing. he's been in the meetings for three years and nothing got done. so i don't think he's very important to be at meetings, to be honest with you. he's been there for three years. he makes it very hard to make deals. >> now, he also said that he was sick of it. sick of it. he said the idea that zelenskyy had no cards to play in negotiations. look, regardless of where we are in terms of the peace deal, this damage is increasingly palpable here in kyiv to the relationship between the united states and ukraine. it is clearly a personal thing between trump and zelenskyy. clearly, trump does not, it seems, have much respect or time for zelenskyy

trump did an interview with brian kilmeade on fox news radio on friday. you could hear the anger and frustration with zelenskyy coming out during that discussion. all to say, that's where a lot of this is coming into play. but privately, a lot of the people who are part of this u.s. that u.s. delegation in riyadh like rubio, like kellogg, seeing him in kyiv earlier this week, they know that they need to convince ukraine that we still want to move toward a peace deal, because the big goal here, of course, is to find an off ramp to the war. and zelenskyy and ukraine and the united states, european allies are all part of that. and one thing i just want to mention as well is what's going to be very telling, is what we hear from his trump's meetings with macron tomorrow, and then the uk prime minister, keir starmer, on thursday. there's a lot of talk about needing to shift the tone. i'm being told, um, when they come for trump to shift the tone, at least, you know, we'll see what he says publicly. but at least in those private meetings that he's expected to ha

pressed on the subject in an interview with fox news radio on friday, he acknowledged russia had invadedkraine on the order of russian president vladimir putin. here is that clip from president trump. >> would you accept a call from volodymyr zelenskyy today? >> of course i will take a call from him. he's been negotiating for three years. you say russia was the attacker. russia was attacked. russia attacked. there was no reason for them to attack. there was no reason he should have attacked. that whole thing was going on for years. there was no reason he was going in. it should have never happened. that war should have never happened. and i'm telling you, the way they talked, i said these guys are going to go to a war. this is a -- every time i say oh, it's not russia's fault, i always get slammed by the fake news. i'm telling you, biden said the wrong things, volodymyr zelenskyy said the wrong things. they got attacked by somebody much bigger and stronger, which is a bad thing to do. and you don't do that. but russia could have been talked out of that so easily. that should never have b

trump made those comments yesterday on a fox radio news show. then he. about his desire to abandon ukraine and coddle vladimir putin. that exploded into public view this week. on tuesday at mar a lago, president trump attempted to rewrite the 2022 invasion of ukraine by claiming zelensky was the one who started the war. >> you've been there for three years. you should have ended it three years. you should have never started it. you could have made a deal. >> let me be clear. russia invaded ukraine three years ago tomorrow, a sovereign, democratic nation. putin made false claims about ukraine and nato to justify his invasion. zelensky didn't start this war at all. president zelensky responded, saying president trump is surrounded by disinformation. trump then hit back with a long and scathing post on truth social, riddled with inaccuracies and this, quote, a dictator without elections, zelensky better move fast or he's not going to have a country left. end quote the dictator without elections. zelensky, a democratically elected president, was up for reele

fox news contributors... in many ways i feel really blessed because new media began with the talk radio revolution. d then fox took that on hgh and steroids to the next level. and still both remain extraordinarily powerful and relevant today. and then you've got the brogans and the podcasters and the social media. people have too many options and if you are not a truth teller, you are not going to survive in my view, am i wrong on that? >> you are absolutely right and i think people who are trustworthy in the media, that part of the media universe is thriving. it's the propaganda merchants that are shriveling on the vine. joe rogan is absolutely right. no one trust them anymore. the latest unison talking point is constitutional crisis that donald trump's causing. that's the old story. they did in his first term and are doing it again. they are going nuts because no one is listening to them. they've lost their influence. they've lost the trust of the people. they've lost the room and they can't handle it. >> sean: all these years i've been doing us that -- doing this ... i didn't go out there and sta

so you pretty much laid out of this radio interview with fox news. what his plan is, is that to us would take gaza, would clean it out and develop it. and he very much talked about this from the lens of a real estate developer talking about what great land it is and you know right there on the sea. but the most important thing in this interview is he said that he will not impose it. he was just making a suggestion. he act said he was genuinely surprised when the egyptians answered. or any of us didn't want to take any more than $2000000.00 palestinian saying that we give them billions of dollars. and that was the question. was she going to try and use that leverage the billions of dollars that he does get that us gives to egypt and jordan to try and force their hand at a few changes very often. but at least according to this, in this moment with this interview, it does, it appear that he's going to use the leverage. he said a couple of things, which i think clearly demonstrates that he doesn't have much understanding of the intricacies, the history o

do an interview with fox news brian kilmeade. it was a radiointerview, but he went into length, um, more expanded more on his comments about ukrainian president zelenskyy. he continued to attack him to argue that he is not a great negotiator, that it's been three years and he hasn't gotten a lot done. but one very notable moment is that, you know, i was listening to the interview. you could hear the host kind of saying, you know, trying to press the president to admit that russia was the aggressor, that russia was the one who launched an illegal invasion into ukraine. trump kind of ignored the question repeatedly until he finally admitted russia attacked. he said russia attacked, but that there should have never been a war. and he repeatedly tried to place some blame as well on joe biden for what he said was saying the wrong things and not knowing how to negotiate well with putin. all to say, i'm curious to see if there's going to be an opportunity, if he's going to take some questions from some of these governors in the room, hear them out, an
