Well, I think it is both the US's and the EU's Rome, or Greece, I should say, or Greece to everybody's Rome. I think that the role that we have in the world is one where we are connected to so many places, either from the Commonwealth, the legacy of empire, the Anglosphere. It's not just us, it's Canada, it's Australia. And, you know, it's even places like Nigeria and Kenya.

It is very clear that there is an axis of authoritarian states that are collaborating against the West. You see it with the North Koreans in Russia. You see it with China and Iran. There is collusion taking place. We know this. And yet we, at this point, have just lost our confidence.
