00:00The head of NATO, Mark, is fantastic.
00:03Mark Ruta.
00:05I think he's fantastic.
00:07But some of the Europeans, like Spain, has been terrible.
00:10In fact, I told Scott to cut off all dealings with Spain.
00:16Spain, first of all, it started when every European nation,
00:20at my request, paid 5 percent, which they should be doing.
00:23And everybody was enthusiastic about it, Germany, everybody.
00:27And Spain didn't do it.
00:29And now Spain actually said that we can't use their bases.
00:34And that's all right.
00:34We could use their bases if we want.
00:36We could just fly in and use it.
00:38Nobody is going to tell us not to use it.
00:40But we don't have to.
00:41But they were unfriendly.
00:44And so I told him, we don't want to do it.
00:46Spain has absolutely nothing that we need other than great people.
00:49They have great people.
00:50But they don't have great leadership.
00:53And as you know, they were the only country
00:55that NATO would not agree to go up to 5 percent.
00:59I don't think they want to agree to go up to anything.
01:02They wanted to keep it at 2 percent.
01:03And they don't pay the 2 percent.
01:05So we're going to cut off all trade with Spain.
01:08We don't want anything to do with Spain.
01:10The Press.
01:14And I'm not, by the way, I'm not happy with the UK either.
01:19That island that you read about, the lease, okay, he made it.
01:22For whatever reason, he made a lease of the island.
01:25Somebody came and took it away from him.
01:28And it's taken three, four days for us to work out
01:33where we can land there.
01:34It would have been much more convenient landing there
01:35as opposed to flying many extra hours.
01:37So we are very surprised.
01:40This is not Winston Churchill that we're dealing with.
01:43The Press.
01:44What's your expectations towards Germany?
01:47What can Germany do and what should Germany do
01:50to help you in this country?
01:51The President Biden Well, I think they're doing it.
01:53I mean, they're letting us land in certain areas.
01:55And that's we appreciate it.
01:57And they're just making it comfortable.
01:59We're not asking them to put boots on the ground or anything.
02:01I mean, we're just they're a respected country.
02:05We I have a very good relationship with the country.
02:09We have in particular now with this leader, with this new leader.
02:13I think he's an excellent leader.
02:15I had my differences with Angela.
02:18I said, you're hurting your country with immigration
02:21and you're hurting your country with energy.
02:24And we have a man sitting on my right that is, I think,
02:28pretty much the opposite of her on energy
02:30and the opposite on immigration.
02:34And I think he's doing very well.
02:36The Press.
02:37The Press.
02:38The Press.
02:38The Press.
02:39The Press.
02:40Commercial air travel right now is severely restricted in the Middle East
02:43and thousands of Americans are stranded.
02:45Why wasn't there an evacuation plan?
02:47And will you send planes to get people out?
02:49President Biden Well, because it happened all very quickly.
02:51We thought, and I thought maybe more so than most.
02:55I could ask Marco.
02:56But I thought we were going to have a situation
03:00where we were going to be attacked.
03:01They were getting ready to attack Israel.
03:04They were getting ready to attack others.
03:07You're seeing that right now.
03:08And a lot of those missiles that are hitting in,
03:11those are stationary.
03:12Those were aimed there for a long period of time
03:13at these other countries.
03:15So I think I was right about that.
03:16We attacked first.
03:18And if we didn't, it could have been, you know,
03:20look, we're really decimating them.
03:23They're being decimated.
03:26And if we didn't, if we didn't, and by the way,
03:28we have massive amounts of ammunition.
03:31We have the high end.
03:33A lot of it was given away stupidly by Biden,
03:36very stupidly, for free.
03:38And I'm all for Ukraine, but they gave away a lot.
03:42As you know, when I give away ammunition,
03:44everybody pays for it.
03:45The European Union is paying for it.
03:46Then they can do what they want with it,
03:49but they are giving it, let's say, to Ukraine.
03:51And it's okay.
03:52But we gave away a lot of high end.
03:54But we have plenty.
03:56But we have unlimited middle and upper ammunition,
04:00which is really what we're using in this war.
04:03And we have really an unlimited supply.
04:07We also have a lot of the very high end stored
04:09in different countries throughout the world.
04:11With this, we're literally storing it there,
04:13which is actually something that I insisted on in my first term.
04:18I rebuilt the military in my first term.
04:20The military is great.
04:22A lot of, a lot, unbelievable amount of ammunition,
04:29or munitions, as they say, were given away to, you know,
04:33The Wall Street Journal incorrectly covered the story
04:35when they said that it was given away to the Middle East.
04:37Not to the Middle East, it was given away to Ukraine.
04:40Very little was given to the Middle East.
04:42The Middle East would buy a lot, and some of the nations,
04:45because they're rich, they have a lot, but it was given away to Ukraine.
04:50And it just should have been done.
04:53Look, it's a war that should have never happened.
04:55If I were president, that war would have never happened.
