You must know now who ordered
the Starlink access in Ukraine to be restricted.
Who was it? Was it Pentagon?
Well, I wouldn't tell you if I did know. I have no idea.
But I wouldn't tell you if I did know. Why would I tell you who you is?
CNN, sir.
Why would I tell CNN?
Zelenskyy said they still are receiving flow.
Well, if there is a problem, I'll get it straight to them.
Have you told Elon Musk to stop messing around
with Ukraine's Starlink connection?
I have not spoken to him.
I might. I might have to, but I have not.
I've heard it was fixed, but if it's not, I'll speak to him.
I don't want to hear it.
Do you have so much power over what goes
on in the war between Russia and Ukraine?
Well, I don't think he does.
I think he's, first of all, he's a very good person.
He's not going to do anything wrong.
He's a very brilliant person, or Starlink wouldn't exist.
That's other things, right?
But Elon will never do anything wrong, I know him very well.
He's a fair person and, you know, it's an unusual situation where
you're talking to a private company.
But he's not going to do anything that's wrong.
The ceasefire is really good news.
Will the First Lady be a part of the trilateral peace talks?
No, but it's not the worst idea I've ever heard.
What she wants to do is save children, and that's her focus.
And both sides are cooperating with her, so doing a very good job.
How did that all come about, Mr. President?
Her initiative.
And they contacted both sides, and both sides wanted to do it.
How do you believe Melania can make peace in Ukraine?
I think she's done a great job.
I mean, she's into saving babies
and bringing babies back home to their parents.
And she's been able to do something that's great.
She's been working very hard on it.
She wants to see babies come back to their families.
That's between Russia and Ukraine.
And they worked a ceasefire in a very rough place, by the way,
and babies are being exchanged. She's done a great job.
Really good. I finally had a nice group of people.
That's what you're going to have.
Mr. President! Mr. President!
