there are 2% threshold, but i think the more important metric on naito and on and on. europe writ large, where will they be with the united if there is a second term presidency on rly has been defined. now, both trump and biden houses in their national security strategies is clearly the leading threat to the united states and there are some concern that while the united states has stood by the europeans as it relates to the russian invasion of ukraine that there won't be the same solidarity. god forbid there is a military incursion by china over taiwan or some other. you're right about the heart palpitations and thank you for for mentioning that there is that concern, i think at the challenge is if you look at business they always want things to be predictable they want things to be stable so that they can plan what governments want predictability to. and this is, i think what's caused a lot of heart palpitations, heartburn, all those unpleasant things in the first trump administrationere agreed. and so various issues that it was a lack of predictable but trump was goi

well, the first thing i think he said in his recent comment is the naito allies need to spend more. and i think he's right about that. the naito allies agreed to all hit this percent target, aspe yu in your opening, only 18 of the 32 have are expected do that this year. so the other third need to hit that target. and then also last year at the vilnius summit naito and nancy'w essentially the first serious defense plans for europe since the end of the cold war. the economist magazine estimated that to provide the capabilities for those plans that naito will probably have to increase the defense level to something like 3%. so i do think the allies need to do more. and it's not just a matter of fairness about effective global strategy. if the united states and its allies are going to take on china, russia, iran, north korea, the united can't do it on its own. the allies need to step up. and then in terms of the more inflammatory parts of his statements, i think we learned e first term, and i think we were understood that and i think we've forgotten lessons. but he often starts with kin

it has turned towards the eu and naito, which is why, and nato, which is why, as putin's invasion of ukraine plays out a few hundred kilometres from georgia. georgia's position on the war is being watched closely. georgia hasn't sanctioned russia, nor has it backed ukraine. but despite what the protesters say, the government denies being under russian influence. and while it defends this law, it knows it's not the end of the story. not least because there's an election in georgia later this year. depending on who wins, the law could be overturned. this debate is going to continue. and as we've been seeing, this law on foreign funding is about much more than that. for a lot of people that i'm speaking to, this isn'tjust about the technicalities of a bill that affects ngos. this is about the entire future of the country, whether it chooses a path of european integration or whether it remains in moscow's self—declared sphere of influence. more than 30 years on from the collapse of the soviet union. this choice remains with moscow and washington and brussels all paying close attention

i want you to remember that line today on the naito line our military forces faces to prevent possible invasion. on the other side of the line, the soviet forces also bases to prevent their people from. i'll tell you in a minute why that line is so important and what it tells us about president reagan. at this point, reagan's ideological vision is clear. democracies protect rights, keep the peace and produce economic growth. the soviet system fails on all three grounds. therefore, he said, what we have to consider here today, while time remains as is the permanent prevention of war and the establishment of conditions of freedom and democracy as rapidly as possible in all countries. at the time, it seemed that reagan people rejected it out of hand. but what it really was was like the little boy pointing out that the emperor has no clothes and that and it's all explained in a manner that is why it resonated so well at this point, the rationale behind reagan soviet policies is clear. he called out the soviet union hit back as a failed system to provide rhetorical for those who suffered un

talk about how jens stoltenberg, secretary general naito, was extremely over biden's decision, really, because he, as you said, he decided really to leave before he became president and his his willingness to kind of buck allies in certain when it comes to his very deeply held convictions. it reminds me of how he's approached israel as well. you know, you write that he deeply impacted by his with former israeli prime over the years and how they really deeply ingrained in him that that was only place that they had to go and you that this and he has himself a zionist many times even though at this point right now his approach to israel is obviously alienating many of the us's allies. but he's still very deeply held in those convictions. and so i'm just wondering what you learned, how his own of moral compass and his own you know, he's very well. i wouldn't say stubborn, but, you know, probably people around him call him that. and just in terms of like how he has a a decades long experience in foreign policy, he has many experiences to draw on. and that informs lot of the decisions that

where it doesn't compute that there's no suggestion of direct military conflict between naito the united states and russia. and i don't think that that was the fear that russia had or a fear that russia had at all in terms of the future and not the motivating circumstance for its decision to invade. so in that sense, to it just doesn't map on particularly well to this particular situation. if you refine just a little bit, i think the core fear to the degree that it was, was rational. and that's not to 100%, but it's there is about the growing military relationship between ukraine and, europe and the growing relationship between ukraine and the united states, because that does there's a trend line after 2015 to 2022. and that trend is up. and if you on a map, you know, sort of continue trend line for another ten years, i think it's quite possible, moscow, that it was concluded that this is just not acceptable, this has to be prevented in some in some way and has to be turned back. and so in that sense, it's not fear of the western athens, but a sort of fear of what ukraine could become wi

national security policy of the united states to try to promote around the world like, you know, the naito alliance and other things, because democracy leads to stability worldwide means there are fewer wars. it means we have more trade partners. it means are fewer refugee crises. and we're seeing all of those things coming to roost because of the fragility of democracy around the world. and so we have lost some of our moral authority to lead because of the attacks we are seeing through on our democracy. so i like that framing is a national security issue and to talk about the book, i think we need to start by terms you talk about and misinformation. and do you want to distinguish for us? yeah and you know, maybe maybe people have different definitions these things but as i define them in the book disinformation is the deliberate of lies to deceive and manipulate people. that's disinformation, misinformation is kind of its unwitting cousin. so people may hear disinformation it to be true and spread it without realizing what they're saying is false i'll give you an example because all of us
