00:00We took out ISIS, and we had – it was gone, but during the Biden administration,
00:06it formed again a little bit. We hit it very hard in Syria.
00:10And Syria, by the way, spoke with the president, is making a lot of progress,
00:14tremendous progress, actually. We're very happy about that.
00:17We took off all sanctions, which gives them a chance to breathe.
00:21And he is working very, very hard, and I think he's going to put it all together.
00:27So many things are happening, many good things.
00:33Threats to Europe and America, the Middle East, and other places are really calming down.
00:41It's a lot different than it was just one year ago.
00:44Just one year ago, the world was actually on fire. A lot of people didn't know it.
00:49And in Nigeria, we're annihilating terrorists who are killing Christians.
00:53We've hit them very hard.
00:55They've killed thousands and thousands of Christians. What's that all about?
01:01Much of this unprecedented success is possible because I rebuilt our military in my first term,
01:07and now we're making it even stronger.
01:09We have a budget of over a trillion dollars this year, and next year we're going to 1.5 trillion.
01:16Our country's never done better economically. We're taking in numbers that we've never taken in,
01:23not only the fact that the investment is at 18 trillion plus, but our jobs numbers.
01:30Everything is, I think, maybe better than ever before.
01:34I think you're going to see some – and a lot of you are investing in our country.
01:37I think you're going to be extremely happy with your investments.
01:40I think you'll see numbers like you haven't seen before.
01:43I also secured commitments from virtually all NATO allies to increase their defense spending to 5 percent of GDP.
01:52Everybody but Spain – I don't know what's happening with Spain.
01:54Why would they not do that?
01:56They want a free ride, I guess.
01:58Huh?
01:58Every country but Spain increased to 5 percent.
02:02I don't know why.
02:03We're going to have to talk to Spain.
02:06With America's renewed attention to security of the Western Hemisphere,
02:10I've stopped the invasion on our southern border and designated the drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
02:18And you probably saw that we've stopped – virtually stopped almost 100 percent all drugs coming in by water,
02:25and now we're going to stop them on land.
02:26The land is easy.
02:27The water is tough, but that's down now.
02:31I said – I heard it just last night.
02:34It was 97.
02:35Now it's 98.1 percent, and we're trying to figure out who are the 2 percent that are willing to get into those boats.
02:42I don't think they watch television or the news.
02:46But we've taken out almost 100 percent of all of the drugs coming into the United States by water,
02:52and now we'll, I think, very easily stop them on land.
02:55That's the easy part.
02:56We wanted to wait until the other was taken care of.
02:59And earlier this month, thanks to the unrivaled skill, power, and might of the U.S. military,
03:05we have the most powerful military in the world by far.
03:08We captured the outlaw dictator, Nicolas Maduro, and the people of Venezuela are very happy about it.
03:15And we're having great relationships with the leaders of – the new leaders of Venezuela.
03:32That was a great question.
03:36We had an experience of why it was like a belief on how to put a goal.
03:37We set it in the world and of the – why there's which co-ed effort release of the—
03:42two years ago.
