This is absolutely the basis for peace. And they couldn't tell the truth. for three decades. They could not admit what any of us knew because I've been around this region for 36 years in detail. I sat with Boris Yeltsin, I sat with Mikhail Gorbachev, but the Americans would not tell the truth publicly until yesterday that this was so provocative, it was a game. They thought they'd win the game.

I don't know how many people here play or played in their childhood the game of risk. The game of risk was a big game for me. You wanted your piece on every part of the world map. That was the game. When you took over the whole world, world hegemony, we now call it, you won. They're playing that game. until this administration.

So the two most important, three important things have happened in my view in this administration so far. First, our new Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, told the fundamental truth. We are in a multipolar world. First time the sentence was uttered, he told the truth. What does it mean? The American mindset for 30 years was we run the show. Marco Rubio said, well, we don't run the show.

crazy idea swarming still a project of 30 years doesn't go down necessarily in one phone call or one statement by the secretary of defense but it's pretty important that it was said so publicly and so visibly and of course europe is in a tizzy Because Europe signed on to the U.S. project. All these politicians in Europe are there where they are because they were part of the U.S. project.

And now the U.S. is reversing its project. And you didn't tell us. What are we supposed to do? We're way out there. And so they're completely befuddled. And I have to say, I told them.
