00:00President Trump has been consistent that he wants to see Europe investing more in defense

00:05and not just relying on America to safeguard us.

00:10Actually, this is something that I agree with.

00:12We need to invest in defense.

00:14The government has said that they will commit to spending 3% on defense,

00:18but actually hasn't given a timeline by when they're going to do that.

00:21And it's hard to see if they're failing to control spending on welfare,

00:24how they are going to achieve that 3% of GDP spending on defense.

00:28We need to invest in our own security, as do other European countries,

00:33and we need to stand with Ukraine.
