And right now, many of the actions we're taking, unfortunately, mean that we're working against our own strategic outcome at the end.

And you can't bring allies on board if they don't trust you.

We're going to have to deal with this threat by this aberrant, bizarre, murderous regime in Tehran.

And we're going to do it at the end of the day with allies, lots of allies.

Yeah.

And you go to the heart of it right there.

There's a saying about trust.

It departs on a horse at a gallop.

It comes back at a very slow walk.

And I get the sense it's going to take us eight to 12 years to restore the levels of trust that the Allies believe that we are once again

someone they can count on we've treated them poorly and i think it's going to take a while to recover but it's going to be by giving our word on something and living up to it and going back to a strategic approach and a good strategy is an appetite suppressant to war it is not an appetite uh increasing uh

tool, because you don't go off and do silly things if you've got a strategy, because it sets priorities and you don't do something.

For example, reopen Russian oil, take sanctions off Russian oil, because, you know, that's a key problem for Europe right now.

You don't do certain things that end up actually causing you more problems down the road.

So we're going to have to get back to thinking strategically and giving our word and living up to it.

Well, China is benefiting from a lot of this and Russia is benefiting militarily because weapons that could have been given to Ukraine are not being given.

They're being used in other places, that sort of thing.

Economically, Russia is benefiting.

So right now, China and Russia are probably benefiting from this war.

I think it would be very unlikely that this regime would break right now.
