I think actually that the RIG, the Russian Information Group, which I mentioned, is actually a good structure to start with.

But we do not have a strategy to do that, and we do not have anybody in charge of that in the United States Government.

So there has been no threat that we have to remove our air base there.

One of the things that really impressed me was the person who said, you know, if you are not willing to do anything about what Russia did in the United States intervening in your electoral system, fundamental to your democracy, how should…

I want to follow that line of thinking because in your statement, you have been clear with us that our nuclear capabilities are the foundation and the bedrock of our defense.

What other options do we have in response to what North Korea is doing?

This comes as Russia-backed forces encircle United States troops and their partners in al-Tanf.

I think research and development on different ways of doing fuel is going to be important.

I think there is some room in the sanctions regime, but there is not a lot left in there but there are some and we should apply all of those that we can before we are left with only the other choice.

So what does it say to our allies that we have not been willing to take any overarching action against Russia for what they did?

I would urge for a budget to have predictability so we can keep on that track.
