00:00Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are simply right when they say that Europe needs to
00:07do more to defend its own continent. It's myopia to pretend otherwise with Russia
00:14on the march. So this government will lay out a clear pathway to reaching 2.5
00:20percent of our GDP on defence. We have to accept that there is no going back. We
00:28must stop the 1990s clouding our vision. The post-Cold War peace is well and
00:40truly over. This is a changed strategic environment. I've occasionally asked on
00:47my travels here and of course on the doorstep around the country, when will
00:55the Kremlin threat, this upheaval that we're experiencing, end? When will things
01:01get back to normal? My answer is that they will not.
01:05Europe's future security is on a knife edge.
