Knowing that it is limited what they could do, and limited what the united states could do, but we do have someone like bill richardson, who is a well unknown to hostage negotiator working on the case. it s a matter of time, we hope the time is not the full 90 years. that is the scary part. you said biden has drawn a line here, do you anticipate that putin will buckle? and have this conversation with him? he is not buckling over the u invasion of ukraine, he stopped conscripting shoulder soldiers in his own country, but he is looking for many different ways to continue his imperialist agenda. his advancement of white supremacy, and the united states right now is getting in the way of that. he is not stopping, so while it is good to hear britney griner s name in biden s mouth, it is not like she had a bright direct line to putin on any of the issues. that is why we have sanctions in a massive coalition. if putin has not stopped citing war and committing work fines,
