Because I think we have to understand that we want to reinvigorate.

This alliance has to look different because the world looks different.

This alliance has to be about different things than it's been in the past because the challenges of the 21st century are different than the challenges of the 20th.

The world has changed and the alliance has to change.

But the fundamental thing that has to change is we have to remind ourselves of why it is we have an alliance in the first place.

This is not just a military arrangement.

This is not just some commercial arrangement.

It is what holds us together in the first place as an alliance is our shared civilizational values.

The fact that we are all heirs to a common civilization and one we should be very proud of.

And only after we recognize that and make that the core of why it is we're allies in the first place, can we then build out all the mechanics of that alliance.

And then everything else we do together makes more sense.

I think that's a difficult war to say anyone is winning.

The Russians are losing seven to eight thousand soldiers a week.

A week.

Not wounded, dead.

Ukraine has suffered extraordinary damage, including overnight, and again, to its energy infrastructure, and it will take billions of dollars and years and years to rebuild that country.

So I don't think anyone can claim to be winning it.

I think that both sides are suffering tremendous damage, and we'd like to see the war come to an end.

It's a senseless war.

In our view, the president believes that very deeply.
