You know, you look at from Vietnam onwards, endless quagmires, endless problems, Iraq, Afghanistan, and so on and so on. And I look at what's happened in Ukraine, and I'm just looking at it pragmatically. Do we just let a Russian...

Do we let Russia, led at the moment by Vladimir Putin, who I would categorize as a dictator, do we let him just take what he wants? Even if he uses it and dresses it all up as, I'm doing this because I fear about NATO encroachment, which may well be his reasoning. May well be his reasoning. But many people think it's not his reasoning. Many people think.

Do you think that's a good idea? Yes, absolutely. You know why? You're freaking me out. If Ukraine had nuclear weapons, they wouldn't have been invaded. Can we agree on that? We told them to give up their nuclear deterrent.
