Tell me more about your organization.
So this is where you have to ask about your organization.
You're famous.
Not everybody is famous like you.
And then it was.
It was Russian television, actually.
It just had masked the name of that.
And I said, oh, I'm sorry.
The reason is because I just made a decision in 2014.
This actually goes back to when Russia took Crimea.
Yeah.
So if you looked at my history here,
The years before Russia took Crimea, I went on RT.
I used to do that.
But then when Russia took Crimea, this was just quite clearly aggression.
I mean, this is just flat-out aggression.
You're literally seizing territory that's not yours, and you're doing it.
Now, it's a fait accompli, didn't really have much fighting, but nonetheless.
So I had a lot to say in the media about what we should do about that as the pushback to that.
But I just made a decision that I wasn't going to do that.
