00:00President Trump has made it clear that we will not outsource our national security or our
00:07hemispheric security to any other countries. Our partner, the UK, is letting us down with
00:13the base on Diego Garcia, which we had shared together for many, many years,
00:19and they want to turn it over to Mauritius. So President Trump is serious here. Just as I said,
00:26after Liberation Day last year, I would tell everyone, take a deep breath. Do not have this
00:33reflexive anger that we've seen and this bitterness. Why don't they sit down, wait for
00:42President Trump to get here and listen to his argument? Because I think they're going to be persuaded.
