it isa it is a concern that concern. it is a concern that you have both china, north korea, russia, iran, countries that are not necessarily coordinated in the past looking to figure out how they can have impact. inaudible. yes, i do but i am not prepared to talk about the detail in public. and i think you will see that some of our european friends are going to be curtailing their investment in russia, i meant, excuse me, in russia, i meant, excuse me, in china, as long as china continues to have this indirect help to russia in terms of

being able to help their economy as well as help them as a consequence in their ability to fight in ukraine. the other thing that we have talked a lot about is that... and i raised it and i did about is that... and i raised itand i did not about is that... and i raised it and i did not hear... about is that... and i raised itand i did not hear... i cannot swear everyone agreed because nobody got to talk about it but we need a new industrial policy in the west. for example we talked about how both the eu as well as later has to be able to build their own munition capacity, has to be able to generate their own capacity to provide for weapons and the ability that make it came as a surprise to some of us how we had fallen behind in the west in terms of the ability to construct new

material, new weaponry, everything from vehicles to weapons systems and so one of the things that came out of this was we're going to be meeting again, with our european colleagues, is what do we to increase the capacity of the west and particularly in europe and japan, to be able to generate the kind of ability to produce their own weapons systems, notjust for systems, not just for themselves systems, notjust for themselves but to be able to generate that. it is what russia is trying to figure out, that they went to china and they did not get the weapons but then they went to north korea, but we're going to be in a position whether waste is going to become the industrial base for the ability to have all the defensive weapons that we need. that was a discussion as well. �* , �* ., , ., as well. inaudible ready to deal with —

as well. inaudible ready to deal with vladimir _ as well. inaudible ready to deal with vladimir putin - as well. inaudible ready to deal with vladimir putin in l deal with vladimir putin in two or three — deal with vladimir putin in two or three years from now? | deal with vladimir putin in two or three years from now? i am ready to _ or three years from now? i am ready to do — or three years from now? i am ready to do with _ or three years from now? i am ready to do with him _ or three years from now? i am ready to do with him now - or three years from now? i am ready to do with him now and l ready to do with him now and in three years from now. look,... like i said, i am dealing with xijinping right now and in direct contact with them. i have no good reason to talk to putin right now. there is not much he is prepared to do in terms of accommodating any change in his behaviour but there isn't any well either i'm not prepared to deal but i understand the generic point is is putin ready to talk? i am not ready to talk to putin unless he is ready to change his behaviour and the idea... look, putin has got a problem. in this war his suppose of one

and by that i don't hold me to the exact number but i think russia had i7.3% the exact number but i think russia had 17.3% of what they conquered in terms of percentage of territory. they have not been very successful. they have caused horrible damage and loss of life but they have also lost over 350,000 troops, military killed or wounded, 350,000 troops, military killed orwounded, overi 350,000 troops, military killed or wounded, overi million or wounded, over i million people, or wounded, overi million people, particularly young people, particularly young people with technical capabilities leaving russia because they see no future there. they have a problem but what they do have control of is that they are very good at controlling and running the public outcry that relates to how they use mechanisms to communicate with people. they light like hell to the constituencies, they like like hell about what is going on so

the idea we're going to be to fundamentally change russia in the near term is not likely. —— they light like hell. but one thing is for certain, if we allow russia to succeed in ukraine, they will not stop in ukraine. i know you know this because you have written about it, read putin's speech after they moved in, what it was all about in kyiv, anyway, read what his objective is. anyway, so, i think i am prepared to talk to any leader who wants to talk, including if putin call me and wanted to talk. last time i talked to putin was trying to get an armed agreement regarding nuclear weapons in space and that did not go very far so my point is unprepared to talk to anybody but i do not see any inclination. there is on the part of the chinese to keep in

contact with me but i am not sure where this all goes and look what is happened in asia. we are strengthened the asia—pacific area more than anyone else is. —— has. today i asked my nato allies that we bring on a group from the south pacific, australia, new zealand, japan, australia... i really mentioned australia. and i met twice for the iii leaders of the pacific island nations and we slowed out what is going on that, we slowed down china's reach but there is a lot of work to do. this is a moving target and i do not take it lightly. an pr.— target and i do not take it lightly. an pr. thank you, mr

president — lightly. an pr. thank you, mr president. i— lightly. an pr. thank you, mr president. i have _ lightly. an pr. thank you, mr president. i have two - president. i have two questions. earlieryou president. i have two questions. earlier you spoke about— questions. earlier you spoke about the ceasefire plan between israel and hamas and we are now_ between israel and hamas and we are now looking at ten months of war and _ are now looking at ten months of war and i'm curious if there is anything _ of war and i'm curious if there is anything you feel personally you wish— is anything you feel personally you wish you would have done differently over the course of the wet _ differently over the course of the wet i _ differently over the course of the war. i wanted to ask about your— the war. i wanted to ask about your presidential campaign. i remember covering a campaign in 2020— remember covering a campaign in 2020 and— remember covering a campaign in 2020 and there was a moment where — 2020 and there was a moment where you _ 2020 and there was a moment where you refer yourself as a "bridge — where you refer yourself as a "bridge candidacy" a transition to a younger generation of leaders _ to a younger generation of leaders. i want to understand, what _ leaders. i want to understand, what change?— leaders. i want to understand, what change? two things. let's no what change? two things. let's to back what change? two things. let's go back to _ what change? two things. let's go back to when _ what change? two things. let's go back to when we _ what change? two things. let's go back to when we talked - what change? two things. let'sl go back to when we talked about would i change anything that is happening with israel and the palestinians. the answer is, as you recall, from the very beginning, i immediately, i went to israel but i also had a meeting in egypt and i met with the king ofjordan, i met with

most of the arab leaders to try to get a consensus going as to what had to be done to deal with getting more aid and food and medicine into the gaza strip. and we pushed it hard and israel was less than cooperative. the israeli wall cabinet, i have been dealing with israel since golda meir, the last time i sat across from her desk, that is how far back i go. i know israel well and i support israel but this wall cabinet is one of the most conservative wall cabinet in the history of israel and there is no ultimate answer than a two state solution. —— war cabinet. the plan i put

together was that there would be a process for a two state solution we would get the arab nations, particularly from egypt and saudi arabia to be in a position where they co—operate in the transition so that they can keep the peace in the gaza without israeli forces standing gaza. the question from the beginning was what is the day after in gaza and the day after in gaza has to be no occupation by israel in the gaza strip as well as the ability for us to access and get in and out as rapidly as we can all that is needed there. i'd be disappointed that some of the things i have put forward have not succeeded as well. like the pot we attach from cyprus. i was hopeful that would be more successful but thatis would be more successful but that is why when i went to

israel after the massacres that occurred at the hands of hamas, one thing i said to the israelis and members of the war cabinet, do not make the same mistakes america made after ben leyden. there is no need to occupy anyway. go after the people who did the job. you may recall and will get criticised for it, but i was totally opposed from the occupation and trying to unite afghanistan. 0nce trying to unite afghanistan. once we got bin laden we should have moved on because no—one is going to unite that country. i have been over inch of that country, and i said do not make the same mistake i made. do not think you should be doubling down. we will help you find the bad guys and all this criticism that i would not provide the

weapons, i have not provided £2000 bombs, they cannot be used in gaza or any populated area without causing human tragedy and damage but remember what happened when you had the attack on israel from rockets and ballistic missiles, and i was able to unite the arab nations as well as europe and nothing happened, sent an incredible lesson about what was going on in the middle east so there's a lot of things in retrospect i wish i'd been able to convince israelis to do it but the bottom line is, we have a chance now, it is time to end this war. it does not mean walk away from going after yahya sinwar an art away from going after yahya sinwaran artand away from going after yahya sinwar an art and you know me better than most that there is a growing dissatisfaction in

the west bank from the palestinians about hamas. hamas is not popular now and so there are a lot of moving parts. i just have to keep moving to make sure we get as much done as we camped towards a ceasefire, ceasefire, and by the way, look at the numbers in israel. i mean, my numbers are better than in israel. and i tell you they are better than... tell you they are better than- - -_ tell you they are better than... . a than... inaudible you referred to yourself— than... inaudible you referred to yourself as _ than... inaudible you referred to yourself as a _ than... inaudible you referred to yourself as a bridge - to yourself as a bridge candidate for a younger, candidate fora younger, fresher— candidate for a younger, fresher generation of democratic leaders and i wanted to know— democratic leaders and i wanted to know what changed. what chan . ed to know what changed. what changed was _ to know what changed. what changed was the _ to know what changed. what changed was the gravity - to know what changed. what changed was the gravity of l to know what changed. “mat changed was the gravity of the situation i inherited. and domestic division. and foreign

policy. most historians give me credit than most any any other president to get major legislation passed. what i realise was my long time in the senate and it equipped me to have the way to get things done in the senate. irate have the way to get things done in the senate.— in the senate. we got things assed in the senate. we got things passed that _ in the senate. we got things passed that no-one - in the senate. we got things passed that no-one thought| passed that no—one thought would happen and i want to get that finished and if tomorrow, if we had a circumstance where there was a lineup and we just moved things along... there was a lineup and we “ust moved things along... anyway. it is going _ moved things along... anyway. it is going to — moved things along... anyway. it is going to change. _ hailey bull, scripts. sorry,

josh winegrove, i'm sorry, was the next one. i'll do two more questions. reporter: thank you, many of your colleagues — democrats on the hill, are watching tonight as they assess what they want to say about your candidacy. i'm wondering how you're thinking of this right now? it seems like your answer is clear — but they're watching how things go tonight. tomorrow in michigan, next week in texas and nevada. are you thinking that way about how the neck week or two goes that? sham that way about how the neck week or two goes that? am i that way? — week or two goes that? am i that way? are _ week or two goes that? am i that way? are you _ week or two goes that? am i that way? are you thinking i week or two goes that? am i i that way? are you thinking that wa about that way? are you thinking that way about how _ that way? are you thinking that way about how the _ that way? are you thinking that way about how the next - that way? are you thinking that way about how the next two - way about how the next two weeks go? 0r way about how the next two weeks go? or are you thinking about running as the party's nominee?— about running as the party's nominee? �* ., nominee? i'm determined on runnina nominee? i'm determined on running but _ nominee? i'm determined on running but i _ nominee? i'm determined on running but i think— nominee? i'm determined on running but i think that - nominee? i'm determined on running but i think that it - nominee? i'm determined on running but i think that it is l running but i think that it is important to allay fears by letting people see me out there. forthe letting people see me out there. for the longest time, it was you know — biden's not prepared to sit with us unscripted. biden is not prepared to... and anyway. so,

what i'm doing and he' been doing and i think we've done over 20 major events from wisconsin to north carolina. anyway... to demonstrate that i'm going out to the areas where we think that we can win, where we think that we can win, where we think that we can win, where we can persuade people to move our way. where people are already there. look, the other thing is — we have the most extensive campaign organisation that anybody�*s had in a long time. we have well over 1,000 volunteers knocking on doors, making phone calls. we have headquarters — iforget exactly how many. i don't want to cite a number and then find out i'm off, but we have scores of headquarters in all of the toss—up states. we're organised. we're moving, and that's awful hard to replace in the near—term. and so, here's the near—term. and so, here's the other thing. i was in the senate a long time. very proud

of what i've done in the senate. i was chairman of the foreign relations committee for a long time and a ranking member and chairman of the judiciary committee. i'm going to be going down to thejohnson library. i'm going to be going around and making the case of the things that we have to finish and how we can't afford to lose what we've done or backslide on civil rights, civil liberties, women's rights. that little button that we have. control guns — not girls. i mean, the idea that we're seeing here. we're sitting around. more children are killed by a bullet than any other cause of death. the united states of america — what the hell are we doing? what are we doing? we've dot a candidate saying — don't worry, i'm not going to do anything, i'm not

going to do anything, i'm not going to do anything! you've got a supreme court that is what you might call the most conservative court in american history. this is ridiculous. there's so much that we can do still. and i'm determined to get it done. it's about freedom. and by the way... i'll end this. well, i'm not going to do that. hailey has to come up, too. but! to do that. hailey has to come up, too. but i remember! to do that. hailey has to come up, too. but i remember i made a speech on democracy in philadelphia, in independence hall. and i'm not being critical — just observing. the press said, "what the hell is he talk being for? you did. democracy is not an issue. democracy is not an issue. democracy is not an issue. except the point that 60% of the people knew that i was right, orthought the people knew that i was right, or thought that i was right. i'm not asking you a question and you don't have to answer, obviously. but do you think that our democracy is under siege? think that our democracy is undersiege? based think that our democracy is under siege? based on this court? do you think that

democracy is under siege based on project 2025? do you think he means what he says when he says he's going to do away with the civil service? eliminate the civil service? eliminate the department of education? i mean... we've never been here before. and that's the other reason why you say hand off to another generation. i've got to finish thisjob. i've another generation. i've got to finish this job. i've got to finish this job. i've got to finish this job. i've got to finish thisjob, because finish this job, because there's finish thisjob, because there's so much at stake. finish this job, because there's so much at stake. you had some _ there's so much at stake. you had some discussions - there's so much at stake. gm. had some discussions over the past couple of days with your press secretary about the question of health exams, and you said that the take the cognitive test every day in this job. cognitive test every day in thisjob. are cognitive test every day in this job. are you cognitive test every day in thisjob. are you open cognitive test every day in this job. are you open to taking another physical or tests before the election? governor whitmer of michigan for instance said that it wouldn't to take —— hurt to take a test? wouldn't to take -- hurt to take a test?— wouldn't to take -- hurt to take a test? ., , , take a test? two things. number one - i've — take a test? two things. number one - i've taken _ take a test? two things. number one - i've taken three _ one — i've taken three significant and intense neurological exams by a

neurologist. in each case, as recent as february. and they say i'm in good shape. 0k. although i do have a little problem with my left foot because it's not as sensitive, because it's not as sensitive, because i broke my foot and didn't wear the boot. but i'm good. i'm every single day in my neurological capacity for the decisions that i make every day. you talk to my staff. all of you talk to my staff. sometimes my staff talks a lot! but the fact of the matter is — i don't think that you have them at thing you that all of them at thing you that all of the major ideas we've undertaken haven't been in part initiated by me. i remember with the staff, i said, "i'll going to go to south korea and we're going to get that chip." "what are you doing?" "i'm going to get and korea back together after having hostilities together ever since the end of world war ii." "i'm going to the end of world war ii." "i'm 9°ing to move the end of world war ii." "i'm going to move to see if we can

expand that." you know, the only thing that age does is creates a little bit of wisdom if you pay attention. and so the point i'm making is — i think it's important that i... if my neurologist tells me that he thinks that i need another exam... and by the way, i've laid every bit of the record out. i haven't hidden a thing. you've got to ask trump for his, 0k. you've got to ask trump for his, ok. i you've got to ask trump for his, 0k. ilaid you've got to ask trump for his, ok. i laid it all out. and every single day, i'm surrounded by good docs. if they think there's a problem, i promise you, we're going to... evenif promise you, we're going to... even if they don't think it is a problem and if they think that i should have a neurological exam again, i'll do it. but no—one is suggest that to me now. i'll ask you another question. no matter what i did — no—one is going to be satisfied. "did you have seven docs? did you have two? who did you have? did you do

this? how many times?" so i am not opposed if my doctors tell me that i should have another neurological exam — i'll do it. but that's where i am. hailey bull, scripps._ bull, scripps. you said that ou are bull, scripps. you said that you are making _ bull, scripps. you said that you are making decisions - bull, scripps. you said that you are making decisions on| bull, scripps. you said that. you are making decisions on a day—to—day basis when it comes to support for ukraine. does that mean that you haven't closed the door on further considering lifting restrictions for us—made weapons inside of russia and if i may, your convention is coming up where your delegates pledge to make you the official nominee. if they have second thoughts, are they free to vote their conscience?— their conscience? obviously, the 're their conscience? obviously, they're free _ their conscience? obviously, they're free to _ their conscience? obviously, they're free to do _ their conscience? obviously, they're free to do whatever l they're free to do whatever they're free to do whatever they want. but i get overwhelming support, overwhelming support, overwhelming support. i forget how many votes i won in the primary. tomorrow if people show up at the convention and

say that they want somebody else, that's the democratic process. but that's not going to happen. process. but that's not going to happen-— process. but that's not going to happen. even if that means someone _ to happen. even if that means someone else? _ to happen. even if that means someone else? sure, - to happen. even if that means someone else? sure, look... | someone else? sure, look... i'll end someone else? sure, look... ru end this— someone else? sure, look... i'll end this with _ someone else? sure, look... i'll end this with this. - someone else? sure, look... i'll end this with this. i - i'll end this with this. i served in the senate a long time. i understand the impetus of the candidates running for local office. and whether they think if they can help them or not. in my state of delaware, it was a red state when i started. in terms of we now talk red and blue. i don't recall most of the democratic presidents winning my state when i was a candidate. but the truth of the matter is — i understand the self interest of every candidate. if they think that you know, running with biden is going to hurt them, then they're going to run away.

i get it. but so far, go and look at the polling data in their states. look at the polling data in theirstates. look... look at the polling data in their states. look... and by their states. look... and by the way, i think that you'd all acknowledge, and you're all experts. you're experts on this stuff. how accurate does anybody think that the polls are these days? i can give you are these days? i can give you a series of polls where you have likely voters me versus trump where i win all the time. and the unlikely voters win, he wins sometimes. so the bottom line is — all of polling data right now, which i think is premature, because the campaigning hasn't really even started. it hasn't started in earnest yet. most of time, it doesn't start until after september, after labour day. so a lot can happen. but i think i'm the best — i believe that i'm the best — i believe that i'm the best qualified to govern. and i think that i'm

the best qualified to win. but there are other people who could beat trump, too. but it's hard to start from scratch. and you know, we talk about money raised. we're not doing bad. we've got about $220 million in the bank. we're doing well. so, with that — do you want to follow up on any of that, which you just asked me.— you just asked me. yes! laughter _ laughter you earlier explained confidence in your vice—president. confidence in your vice-president. if your vice-president. yes. if your team came _ vice-president. yes. if your team came back— vice-president. yes. if your team came back and - vice—president. yes. if your team came back and showed you data that she would fare better against former president donald trump, would you reconsider your decision to stay in the race? ., , , , your decision to stay in the race? ., ,, , race? no, unless they came back and said that _ race? no, unless they came back and said that there's _ race? no, unless they came back and said that there's no - race? no, unless they came back and said that there's no way - and said that there's no way that you can win. me. no—one is saying that. no poll says that. thanks. , , ., �* , thanks. this ends tonight's -ress thanks. this ends tonight's press conference. - thanks. this ends tonight's press conference. thank i thanks. this ends tonight's l press conference. thank you, everybody.

his first question he did stumble when he mixed up the name of former president donald trump with his own vice—president kamala harris. here's that moment. mr; vice-president kamala harris. here's that moment. my question for ou is here's that moment. my question for you is - _ here's that moment. my question for you is - how— here's that moment. my question for you is - how are _ here's that moment. my question for you is - how are you _ for you is — how are you incorporating these developments into your decision to stay? — developments into your decision to stay? and separately, what concerns— to stay? and separately, what concerns do you have about vice—president harris's ability to beat— vice—president harris's ability to beat donald trump if she were — to beat donald trump if she were at _ to beat donald trump if she were at the top of ticket? look, _ were at the top of ticket? look, i_ were at the top of ticket? look, i wouldn't have picked vice—president trump to be vice—president trump to be vice—president and i think that she's not qualified to be president. let's start there. number one. the fact is that the consideration is that i think i'm the most qualified person to run for president. i beat him once. and i will beat him again. beat him once. and i will beat him again-— beat him once. and i will beat him aaain. . . ., ., him again. after maintaining an even tone _ him again. after maintaining an even tone during _ him again. after maintaining an even tone during most - him again. after maintaining an even tone during most of - him again. after maintaining an even tone during most of the i even tone during most of the news cop french, joe biden did show a sudden burst of anger as he brought up the topic of gun crime in the united states.

we're sitting around. we're sitting around. more children are killed by a bullet than any other cause of death, in the united states of america. what the hell are we doing! what are we doing?! we have a candidate saying, don't worrying i'm not going to do anything. i'm not going to do anything. i'm not going to do anything! you've got a supreme court that is, what you might call, the most conservative court in american history. this is ridiculous. there's so much that we can do still. i'm joined now by a foreign affairs journalist. i'm joined now by a foreign affairsjournalist. it begs i'm joined now by a foreign affairs journalist. it begs the question — if we had seen that performance two weeks ago, would we have had the conversation that's going on in the why circles in the meantime? i the why circles in the meantime?— the why circles in the meantime? ,, ., meantime? i think that there would be _ meantime? i think that there would be a — meantime? i think that there would be a different - would be a different conversation. there would be undertones but significantly less panic. the big take away, those are not the remarks of a man who thinks he's going anywhere. we heard him saying, just like when he played
