I think it's really important for food security. The folks -- this is a ban against China, Russia, North Korea and Iran, folks who don't want to see us exist anymore as a nation.
This has been a phenomenon that we haven't had recently, where we've had other countries that have went into our airspace for the purpose of trying to gather information.
I think we need to take these things seriously. I think the president and I think, more importantly, the military are taking it very, very seriously.
