00:00Sir, yesterday you said that you were not sure who ordered the munitions halted to Ukraine.

00:07Have you since been able to figure that out?

00:09Well, I haven't thought about it because we're looking at Ukraine right now and munitions,

00:13but I have no, I have not gone into it.

00:16What does it say that such a big decision could be made inside your government without you knowing?

00:21I would know. If a decision was made, I will know.

00:24I'll be the first to know. In fact, most likely I'd give the order, but I haven't done that yet.

00:29Yeah, please.

00:30President, we want to send more weapons to Ukraine, as you said last night.

00:34Last week, the Pentagon paused some shipments of weapons to Ukraine.

00:38Did you approve of that pause?

00:39We want to put defensive weapons because Putin is not treating human beings right.

00:46He's killing too many people.

00:47So we're sending some defensive weapons to Ukraine, and I've approved that.

00:52So who ordered the pause last week?

00:54I don't know. What did you tell me?

00:57I think that's a question for the Pentagon.
