    Good morning. This is because to get sick whatever the physicists said, just kind of sit down in front of you guys, can you move to the doorman? One table down? Really on the people here on the other side of that table guys yeah okay or no right submarines I hold the Navy Hi be involved in a store also and that money will be reason so many small businesses have been domestically sourced.

    Yeah you can control like you know how we can do this step up for the people. So, back to so that people didn't buy come back in a week and

    one thing versus every physicist and engineer do this as she did before this degree I tell you the first

    thing to like when you make stuff sometime because you're like, sometimes like, how to put things together and get the engineering skill more expensive to be able to do this maybe that's a good thing. Do you make an hour so we will make in an hour. He made all this stuff. If I could support my friends is that for Mr. President? I'm going to tell you more about

    your one time visit another weekend.

    Like meet up for sale also to practice across the country and the market before we do that, and then every now and then it's just kind of funny because people were asking me they found me out making stuff and then like, so people start doing that and then I'm like yeah, I mean, like people always like the negative and the community. Yeah.

    Guys, I don't want to have you

    is not quite right. But

    we know if you if you need any any help getting set up with the SBA

    has helped to guide the web like that. And the mainstream are helping us like setting up like they would have given us a grant to set up this door. That would help a lot. Because I thought like okay, I can do everything myself but you have to put more stuff in the wall pending because I don't know how to contribute. Yeah. So yeah, and then one of the maker who's making your stuff right now. You guys have any questions?

    I know. Do you mind this morning? You spent a lot of time with your national security team at the White House. Are there any updates on Ukraine? Mr. President?

    No, no updates except that there's been no change in the posture of the Russian forces. And now there as you know, along the entire Belarus border. I made it clear to early on to President Putin that if he were to move into you, Ukraine, there'd be severe consequences, including significant economic sanctions as well as I feel obliged to beef up our presence. NATO's presence in an eastern front Poland, Romania, etc. And so, but I see, I was watching one of you on television pointed back. And I think you've got to write whoever was embarrassed. I remember her saying that this is all Putin. I don't think even as people know for certain what he's going to do.

    Would you ever see yourself personally sanctioning him? If he did invade Ukraine?

    Yes, he would receive that.

    What would it take to trigger the deployment of the 8500 troops that you've put on high alert and what's your message to those those forces that are on high alert,

    forces and learn on their part of a NATO operation? Not a sole US operation, and I've made it clear to President Putin that we would be we have we have a sacred obligation, Article Five obligation to our NATO allies and that if in fact, he continued to build up and or was to move we will be reinforcing those truths. And I've spoken with every one of our NATO allies, in person, not person, virtually. And we're all on the same page. You've got to make it clear that that there's no reason for anyone any member of NATO to worry whether or not we would we NATO would come to their defense. Mr. President, what about you about what what when you make a decision about deploying those troops, what will what would lead to that is what's going to happen? What Putin does or doesn't do. And I may be moving some of those troops in the near term, just because it takes time. And, again, it's not progress not provocative. It's just exactly what I said. Is that is that as long as we have to reassure if you notice, you don't see a lot of concern in terms of their security of our NMR at our NATO allies in Western Europe, but in Eastern Europe, there's reason for concern there along the Russian border in the Irish border. So everyone from Poland on us has a reason to be concerned about what would happen and what spillover effects could occur. We have no intention of putting American forces or NATO forces in Ukraine. But we I said they're going to be serious economic consequences if he moves.

    Can you tell me what do you think sir, that the risk of an invasion is increasing, or decreasing or steady just as it has been these recently?

    You know, I'll be completely honest with you. It's a little bit like reading tea leaves ordinarily, before a different leader back that he continues to build forces along Ukraine's border from Belarus all the way around. And you'd say well, that means that he is looking like he's going to do something. But then you look at what his past behavior is and what everyone is saying in his team as well as everyone else as to what is likely to happen. It all comes down to his head to say look, let me conclude by saying there will be enormous consequences if he were to go on and invade as he could the entire country, or a lot less than as well for Russia, not only in terms of economic consequences and political consequences, but will be enormous consequences worldwide. This would be the largest if you were to move in. We're almost forced to do the largest invasion since World War Two, and it will change the world as a consequence. Military there's not gonna be any American forces.

    When we talked about this idea in Geneva have a stable, predictable relationship with Russia. Is that something that's still possible given how aggressive he's been and what his actions have been lately? We'll see how natural gas to Europe the Allies Alright, thanks guys. What was the question you asked me
