00:05Ron, but he has done this, of course, in our own hemisphere towards Venezuela.
00:10And he has had success at pinpoint military strikes in Venezuela in particular.
00:15And then against Iran in the strikes back in June.
00:18But what we're looking at.
00:20Looking at right now is much different because he has tied this military pressure.
00:25To the protests on the ground in the street.
00:29And.
00:30There's no clear path to achieving a goal of regime change, which seems to be.
00:35Undergirding what he wants through military strikes from outside.
00:40Alone.
00:40And so it's very unclear what he's trying to achieve right now.
00:44He has talked about.
00:45Nuclear program, but we don't quite have a sense of the specifics.
00:50Of what his policy is, and that's creating concern in Washington that it.
00:55Really is a policy without direction.
