They should be grateful to us.

Europeans think this is diplomacy and this will ultimately work.

And I came up with the idea, you know, you people are brilliant.

You have a lot of money.

Let's see what you can do.

You can build your own electric generating plants.

And they looked at me.

They didn't believe me.

All of the names that are really, I think, in the room right now, if you want to know the truth, they didn't believe it.

And I said, no, no, you can't.

They said, we thought you were kidding.

I said, no, not only am I not kidding, you're going to have your approvals within two weeks.

I always say nuclear will take three weeks, but most ongoing that they're going oil and gas.

Okay.

We are in Davos at the World Economic Forum.

You shouldn't offshore your entire industrial base and have it be hollowed out beneath you.

You should not be dependent.
