THE PRESIDENT: The families of — the families in Guantanamo?
Q No, the families of the people who were victims on 9/11.
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, there is a plan for that.
Q So what about — do you know what’s going on in Ukraine right now? There’s the reports that Russia is, like, on the run in large parts of it. What’s happening?
THE PRESIDENT: Yes, I do. But I’m not going to speak to that now because things are in process.
Q Have you spoken with the King?
THE PRESIDENT: Not to — no, I — I have spoken to him many times, but I haven’t spoken to him since he’s become king.
Thank you so much.
