00:00He said, I would like to send the aircraft carriers.
00:03I said, I don't need them after the war has ended and won.
00:08I need it before the war.
00:09So I was very upset with, not upset, I was not happy with the UK.
00:15I think they'll be involved, yeah, maybe.
00:18But they should be involved enthusiastically.
00:21We've been protecting these countries for years with NATO, because NATO is us.
00:26You can ask Putin.
00:27Putin fears us.
00:29He doesn't fear.
00:30He has no fear of Europe whatsoever.
00:32He fears the United States of America and the military that was built by me in the first term.
00:39Prime Minister of UK, United Kingdom yesterday, told me, I'm meeting with my team to make a determination.
00:48I said, you don't need to meet with a team.
00:51You're the prime minister.
00:52You can make your own.
00:52Why do you have to meet with your team to find out whether or not you're going to send
00:56some minesweepers to us or to send some boats?
01:01Have you been speaking with the French President Macron about the coalition to reopen the Strait
01:06of Hormuz?
01:07Yeah, I have spoken to him.
01:10He's been on a scale of zero to ten.
01:15I'd say he's been an eight.
01:17Not perfect.
01:19But it's France.
01:22We don't expect perfect.
01:23Are you confident that France will help with the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz?
01:29Yeah, I mean, sure.
01:30He's going to, I think he's going to help.
01:32I mean, I'll let you know.
01:33I spoke to him yesterday.
01:36I don't do a hard sell on them because my attitude is we don't need anybody.
01:43We're the strongest nation in the world.
01:45We have the strongest military by far in the world.
01:48We don't need them.
01:49But it's interesting.
01:51I'm almost doing it in some cases not because we need them, but because I want to find out
01:55how they react.
01:56Because I've been saying for years that if we ever did need them, they won't be there.
02:00Not all of them, but they won't be there.
02:02I was very surprised with the United Kingdom because the United Kingdom, two weeks ago,
02:08I said, why don't you send some ships over?
02:10And he really didn't want to do it.
02:13I said, you don't want to do it.
02:14We've been with you.
02:15You're our oldest ally.
02:17And we spend a lot of money on, you know, NATO and all of these things to protect you.
