It consumes too much energy. Get into the things that can make a difference in people's lives now.
Let's accept there's a different view there, and then work on what we can work on together, what we can agree on.
We obviously have close conversations with our US counterparts, and what I’m going to do is build that bridge and make sure that we’re still all working together to support Ukraine.
I am somebody who believes that unions, trade unions, definitely, and I think unions of countries are better because you face a challenging world in a more confident and stronger way.
