You don't want us troops firing at Russians in Ukraine, which is exactly why you have to take the tack to let them empower them. The Ukrainians fight for themselves. That's an insurance payment so that Putin doesn't go into a NATO country and we do find us troops shooting at Russians. That's a terrible and bad outcome for this. And so that's my point about defending the peace. Empower a friend to take care of Putin, who has expansionist ideas across Europe. (07:06–07:18)
