DOUBT CAST on Russia's willingness to agree to energy ceasefire

. MORE TO COME TODAY. THANK YOU. >> WE ARE READY TODAY FOR ENERGY. CEASEFIRE AS PRESIDENT TRUMP. SAID. I DON'T KNOW IF PUTIN IS READY. >> Bill: PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY WAS. WITH US 30 MINUTES AGO REACTING. TO THE ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT. PRESIDENT TRUMP AND ENERGY. CEASE-FIRE.. UKRAINE SAYS RUSSIA CONTINUES TO. STRIKE CIVILIAN AND EMERGENCY. SITES. A LOT OF VIDEO IS GRAPHIC LIKE.

THIS ONE RIGHT HERE. THAT WAS A DRONE STRIKE ON. SUNDAY BLASTING A GROCERY STORE. IN THE EASTERN UKRAINE. THREE PEOPLE REPORTED DEAD, NINE. INJURED. PRESIDENT ZELENSKYY TELLING US. WHY A CEASE-FIRE IS NEEDED FOR A. LASTING PEACE.

>> AFTER RUSSIAN ATTACKS WE LOSE. FROM 20 TO 30 PEOPLE, JUST. CIVILIANS. IT IS NOT ABOUT SOLDIERS. THIS IS AWFUL, A BIG TRAGEDY. WE NEED A CEASE-FIRE TO. COMMUNICATE AND FIND. DIPLOMATICALLY ENDING THIS WAR. CEASE-FIRE IS A GOOD TOOL. FROM BOTH SIDES. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. IF RUSSIA DOESN'T WANT TO.

SUPPORT CEASE-FIRE, I DON'T KNOW. WHY. I THINK ONLY ONE REASON THEY. DON'T WANT TO STOP THIS WAR. >> Bill: FORMER SECRETARY OF. STATE MIKE POMPEO IS A FOX NEWS. CONTRIBUTOR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THERE ARE A LOT OF CROSSCURRENTS. IN THIS WAR RIGHT NOW. SOME OF THEM DIRECTLY AFFECT. AMERICAN CONSUSUMERS. DO YOU BELIEVE THIS ENERGY. CEASE-FIRE IS SOMETHING THAT. COULD STAND UP? >> WELL, BILL, I MUST SAY I HOPE. IT IS. IT SOUNDS LIKE PRESIDENT. ZELENSKYY HOPES IT IS AS WELL.

MULTIPLE OFFERS FOR CEASE FIRES. HAVE B BEEN PRESENTED. AND PUTIN TO DATE HAS REJECTED. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM TIME. AND TIME AGAIN. I SUSPECT HE WILL REJECT THIS. ONE AS WELL. HE CLEARLY THINKS IT IS HIS. NATION'S BEST INTEREST TO BOMB. CIVILIANS AND GO AFTER SCHOOLS. AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE INSIDE. UKRAINE AS WINTER IS. APPROACHING. HE THINKS IT WILL ACHIEVE HIS. ENDGAME. I WISH IT WEREN'T SO. IT SEEMS UNLIKELY THE RUSSIANS.

WILL ENGAGE IN AN ENERGY. CEASE-FIRE. >> Dana: ONE OF THE THINGS THAT. TREASURY SECRETARY SCOTT BESSENT. SAID OVER THE WEEKEND THE. EUROPEANS ARE ALSO COMPLICIT YOU. COULD SAY IN PAYING RUSSIA IN. ORDER TO KEEP THIS WAR GOING. WATCH. >> THE EUROPEANS HAVE GIVEN THE. RUSSIANS MORE MONEY, SINCE THE. START OF THIS WAR SINCE THEY. HAVE GIVEN THE UKRAINIANS. THEY CANNOT WEAN THEMSELVES OFF. RUSSIAN ENERGY. THEY HAD A FAILED ENERGY POLICY.

AND VLADIMIR PUTIN, THEY. CONTINUE TO FUND HIM. SO FOR THEM TO SAY THAT WE. CANNOT HAVE A RESPITE IN DIESEL. PRICING IS COMPLETELY. HYPOCRITICAL. >> Dana: IT KEEPS COMING BACK TO. THIS ISSUE OF ENERGY. AND COMING UP IN THIS WINTER. IT'S ENERGY PLUS DESPERATION ON. BOTH SIDES, PERHAPS, AND YOU ADD. A THIRD LEVEL, WHICH IS EITHER. INCREASE TECHNOLOGY IN TERMS OF. WEAPONS OR A LACK OF WEAPONS TO. FIGHT BACK.

>> DANA, I THINK THAT'S TRUE. SECRETARY BESSENT'S POINT ABOUT. EUROPEAN HYPOCRISY, IT IS WORSE. THAN THAT. THE EUROPEANS HAVE BECOME SO. HEAVILY DEPENDENT ON RUSSIAN. ENERGY AND WE WARNED THEM ABOUT. IT AS FAR BACK WHEN I WAS. SECRETARY OF STATE, NOW LEADS TO. PRECISELY WHERE THEY ARE. THE EUROPEANS HAVE MORE NOW FIVE. YEARS GOING ON SINCE FEBRUARY OF. 2022 HAVE CONTINUED TO FUND THE. RUSSIAN WAR MACHINE BY BUYING. ENERGY FROM RUSSIA. SO THEY HAVE NOTHING TO STAND ON.

HERE WITH RESPECT TO PRESIDENT. TRUMP NOW SAYING WE NEED SOME. DIESEL. I DOUBT THERE IS MUCH DIESEL TO. BE DELIVERED. I DOUBT THAT IN THE NEXT THREE. OR FOUR WEEKS IT WILL CHANGE. ENERGY PRICES AND FRANKLY, I. WISH IT WERE THE CASE THAT THE. UNITED STATES HADN'T GONE DOWN. THIS PATH. SEEMS TO ME WE OUT TO BE DOING. EVERYTHING WE CAN FOR AMERICA TO. MAKE SURE THAT THIS WAR ENDS. QUICKLY AND GIVING VLADIMIR. PUTIN MORE MONEY IS AKIN TO. UNDERWRITING THE IRANIANS AS. WELL. MORE MONEY, MORE TERROR, MORE. HORRORS. THATS THE PATTERN FOR THESE EVIL.

DOERS. >> Bill: SAUDI ARABIA CONTINUES. TO BE AN ISSUE. OVER THE WEEKEND A DIRECT STRIKE. ON THE AIRPORT IN RIYADH. SEVERAL PEOPLE KILLED FROM MANY. DIFFERENT COUNTRIES INCLUDING. THE UNITED STATES. THE PRESIDENT WAS ASKED ABOUT. THAT AS WELL. WATCH HERE ON SATURDAY. >> HAVE YOU DECIDED WHETHER THE. JOIN THE SAUDI STRIKES? >> President Trump: WE JUST. FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECENT. ATTACKS. WE'LL MAKE A DECISION. WE MOVE VERY QUICKLY.

>> Bill: THIS IS A NEW FRONT. THAT GOT SUPER HOT THIS WEEKEND. HOW DO YOU COOL IT DOWN AND CAN. WE? >> BILL, SOME WAYS IT IS A A NE. FRONT BUT IN SOME WAYS THE NEW. FRONT IS THE SAME AS THE OLD. FRONT. THE IRANIAN REGIME 40 YEARS ON. NOW. YOU COOL IT DOWN BY WINNING AND. BY DEFEATING THEM. YOU HAVE TO TAKE AWAY THEIR. CAPACITY TO INFLICT THIS KIND OF. TERROR, FIRING AT CIVILIANS AT. AN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS. UNACCEPTABLE. I HEARD PRESIDENT TRUMP'S. REMARKS.

I'VE BEEN IN THE ROOM WHEN WE. TALKED ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIP. BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND. SAUDI ARABIA. IT WON'T SURPRISE ME AT ALL IF. THE PRESIDENT ENDS UP TAKING THE. NECESSARY ACTIONS TO CONVINCE. THE IRANIANS TO STOP BOMBING. SAUDI AIRPORTS AND. INFRASTRUCTURE. IT IMPACTS AMERICANS ADVERSELY. IN A WAY THAT RAISES ENERGY. PRICES AND NOW KILLED AN. AMERICAN AS WELL. >> Dana: THE OTHER THING IS THAT. AIR TRAVEL ACROSS THE WORLD IS. ONE OF THOUGHS THINGS WHEN YOU. LOOK AND THINK YOU ARE SAFE. FLYING BUT IT IS NOT NECESSARILY.

THE CASE. IN ADDITION TO THE 13 PEOPLE. KILLED, 300 PEOPLE WERE INJURED, SOME CRITICALLY IN SAUDI ARABIA. A QUICK FINAL WORD ABOUT WHAT. PEOPLE SHOULD BE THINKING AS WE. HEAD INTO THE HOLIDAYS. >> THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. THE IRANIAN REGIME IS INTENT ON. USING EVERY LAST TOOL THAT THEY. HAVE AVAILABLE AND THEY -- THEY. NOW RESORTED TO GOING AFTER. CIVILIAN COMMERCIAL AIRPORTS. IT IS WAY OUT OF BOUNDS. I'M CONVINCED THE WORLD NEEDS TO. UNITE TO STOP IT AND CONVINCED. WE WILL.

BUT FOR AMERICANS THINKING ABOUT. TRAVELING WE NEED TO BE CAUTUTIS. AND DO OUR BEST AND CONTINUE TO. LIVE OUR LIVES IN THE FACE OF. THIS HORRIBLE TERROR F.
