"Weakness is not something that we should show, because people like Mr. Putin will draw the wrong conclusions."

"We must enhance NATO force presence in an eastern Europe to include American forces."

"What we should have said right from the outset is that, 'We're going to fly our airplanes wherever we want, when we want, and what you should do'... 'is avoid that, or else face confrontation.'"

"If we continue to wring our hands and continue to be dominated by fears... then Russian aggression will not just advance in the Middle East."
