Well, look, I think one of the worst messages the United States is sending right now to the world and to Russia is, our delaying the supplemental request in terms of military aid to Ukraine, to Israel, to Taiwan, and what's essentially…
The message that went out from this meeting to the world is that United States credibility in dealing with our allies has taken a real hit.
Autocrats that once operated in their own spheres of influence have now joined together in an axis of mutual support and aggression.
