Max BlumenthalGUEST
That's why you're starting to see, um, a...
Max BlumenthalGUEST
Ukrainian parliamentarians like Oleksiy Goncharenko speak out for a ceasefire, and he was actually thrown out of Poroshenko's party for doing so.
Max BlumenthalGUEST
That's why you see Yulia Mendel, Zelenskyy's former spokesperson, calling for, calling for peace.
Max BlumenthalGUEST
And what you're seeing with Ukraine heading into the winter is v- very disturbing.
Pearson SharpGUEST
We will never, uh, give up the dream of being part of the, of NATO," and these kinds of things.
Pearson SharpGUEST
And now you have some of the hardest line anti-Russian Ukraine politicians over there, Oleksiy Goncharenko, who's a, a Ukrainian MP, came out and finally said, "You know what? Actually, maybe it's time we start negotiating with Russia.
Pearson SharpGUEST
Maybe we should give just-
Matt GaetzHOST
Wow
speaker_6GUEST
Anything that we do that allows Putin to get off the hook diminishes the chances of ultimately solving this through negotiation, which is what we all want.
speaker_8HOST
Uh, joining me now is Ukrainian Parliament member Oleksiy Goncharenko live from Kyiv.
speaker_8HOST
Thank you so much, uh, for your time.
speaker_8HOST
Let's just start there with this energy ceasefire deal that apparently has been declared by Donald Trump.
Peter EricksonHOST
[clears throat] Nothing whatsoever.
Peter EricksonHOST
Within Ukraine itself, you know, uh, I, I mentioned it was, uh, Goncharenko, uh, again, that member of the Rada who said, "Hey, look, we're losing this war.
Peter EricksonHOST
We need to make a deal, you know, and maybe, maybe we could actually offer some protections for the Russian language.
Peter EricksonHOST
Um, you know, maybe we could be neutral." Uh, and then he got kicked out of his party, of Poroshenko's party.
Peter EricksonHOST
By one measure, he's the most popular by far member of the Rada.
Peter EricksonHOST
His name is Russian is Goncharenko and Ukrainian is Honcharenko.
Peter EricksonHOST
He, you know, I say he's the most popular because, you know, he has his own, on social media, he is followed by millions and millions of Ukrainians, much more than, you know, the other, let's say the establishment members are.
Peter EricksonHOST
He's kind of a populist politician.
Chris SampsonHOST
I have an objective view of politics here, like he's as Ukrainian as anyone else.
Chris SampsonHOST
Um, uh, Oleksiy Honcharenko is known as a bit of a gadfly in the, uh, the Verkhovna Rada.
Shaun PinnerHOST
Yeah.
Chris SampsonHOST
And, um, h- and he's, uh, his own party kicked him out essentially a couple of days ago, um, for floating the discussion of negotiations.
Jonathan FinkHOST
Russia will attempt to compensate for ground-level stasis through winter aerial bombardment of Ukrainian energy, heating, and transport infrastructure designed to produce civilian suffering sufficient to force Ukrainian political capitulation by spring 2027.
Jonathan FinkHOST
Well, Goncharenko aside, I don't see anybody else in Ukraine really falling for this or calling for capitulation.
Jonathan FinkHOST
Putin seems to be under the impression that Ukraine does not have the capacity to strike back.
Jonathan FinkHOST
Of course, it does.
