00:00I was surprised to see that NATO, while they agreed that it was a very important thing to do,
00:05they agreed fully. Nobody said, oh, you shouldn't do it. So I think NATO's making a very foolish
00:12mistake. And I've long said that, you know, I wonder whether or not NATO would ever be there
00:18for us. So this is a, this was a great test because we don't need them, but they should
00:22have been there. Are you rethinking the United States' relationship with NATO possibly getting
00:28out? Well, I'm disappointed in NATO that we spend trillions of dollars on NATO. Think of it,
00:34trillions over the years, many trillions of dollars. It's one of the reasons we have deficits
00:40and we help other countries. And when they don't help us, I mean, it's certainly something that
00:46we should think about. I don't need Congress for that decision. As you probably know, I can make
00:51that decision myself. The Pressure on NATO for not supporting you on this. Any repercussions?
00:57Well, no, I just think that it's not good for a partnership when they say what you're doing
01:02is a great thing, but we're not going to help.
