neither germany certainly not britain and france either are willing to step up and take over the defense of their realm and they are not merely dependent on the us but they've grown yes. needy and so the us doesn't want to be in a position where it has to jump every time nato gets a twitch and so what he's doing is redefining the strength of the us in the alliance without overcommitting and also this kind of representation speaks well with his base and they are excited because the us is acting like the great power but my middle of the me ask you let me ask you but do you know would this this paradigm here does it actually make america more solid in the alliance and does it make the alliance more solid because if what we have here is a moral hazard ok they're not the europeans or you know they say they're going to spend money and all that but they're just going to look to washington for their defense and you have a president is actually quite skeptical about all these things i mean that's kind of a very dangerous thing to be in ok because you i mean the european in the nato allies are lik

chris: but the leaders of france, of germany, of britain all say they are going to stay in the deal and look for a way to protect european companies that continue to do business, the question is, how hard is the trump administration prepared to go after european companies that ignore the u.s. pulling out? >> two things, chris, first, the wealth that was created in iran as a result of the jcpoa drove iranian malign activity, provided resources for work in syria and iraq. president trump withdrawal in denying them and taking money away from them. i worked hard over the short time i've been secretary of state to try and fix the deal. we couldn't reach agreement with our e-3 partners, i'm hopeful in the days and weeks ahead we can come up with a deal that really works, that really protects the world from iranian bad behavior, not just nuclear programs but behavior as well and i will work with europeans to achieve that. chris: what about the european countries say, look, there's not going to be a renegotiation anymore than there's renegotiation of the paris climate accord. is the u.s. prepar
