What was said

""Don't we in this negotiation that's going to happen, why doesn't Zelensky suggest and the president can make it happen that Russia and the United States dramatically reduce the number of nuclear weapons.""

Michael Douglas says he works with the United Nations on nuclear issues and argues that, in any negotiation to end the war in Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy could propose a deal in which the United States and Russia “dramatically reduce” their nuclear arsenals. Douglas adds that, in his view, if Donald Trump delivered such an outcome it could help Trump secure a Nobel Peace Prize.
