🎦 00:13-04:02⏩
Jonathan plays a series of clips from Julia Hartley-Brewer's interview, where she analyses the exchange between Trump and Zelensky. Hartley-Brewer argues:
- Zelensky's direct approach, while unconventional, stems from his position as a wartime leader facing the loss of 20% of his country.
- Trump's stance is embarrassing and humiliating to the US.

- Trump's pro-Putin stance is either due to a compromise or genuine ignorance, making him a "useful idiot" for Putin.
