00:00Well, I think I have a lot of messages from Gavos, but the primary message is how well the United States is doing.
00:06And I say it all the time. A year and a half ago, we were a dead country, and now we have the hottest country in the world.
00:12So you do not believe that the EU or the UK have any retaliatory financial instruments or measures in their bag that the United States should be worried about?
00:23No.
00:23Europe has very strong tools now, and we have to use them when we are not respected.
00:29But when we look at the situation, it's clearly a very concerning time, because we are killing the structure where we can fix the situation and the common challenges we have.
00:39Without collective governance, cooperation gives way to relentless competition.
00:44Competition from the United States of America through trade agreements that undermine our export interests, demand maximum concessions,
00:53and openly aim to weaken and subordinate Europe, combined with an endless accumulation of new tariffs that are fundamentally unacceptable.
01:03We have decided to join the mutual exercise in Greenland without threatening anyone, but just supporting an ally and another European country, Denmark.
01:14We have to have it. They have to have this done. They can protect it. Denmark, they're wonderful people.
01:30And I know the leaders are very good people, but they don't even go there.
01:35And, you know, because a vote went there 500 years ago and then left, that doesn't give you title to property.
01:42And you're giving a response to President Macron saying he will not join the reporter meeting.
01:48Well, did you say that?
01:49Well, nobody wants him because he's going to be out of office very soon.
01:52And, you know, that's all right.
01:54What I'll do is, if they feel like Costo, I'll put a 200 percent tariff on his wines and champagnes, and he'll join.
02:01But he doesn't have to join. If he said that, you're probably giving it to me a little bit differently.
02:07But if he actually did say that, but as you know, he's going to be out of office in a few months.
