[0:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=4) Then, then why are we in NATO? You have to ask that question.

[0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=7) Why do we have billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars, over the years trillions of dollars, and all these American forces stationed in the region if we can only use- we can- we w- in our time of need,

[0:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=18) we're not gonna be allowed to use those bases.

[0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=20) So I think there's no doubt, unfortunately, after this conflict is, is concluded, we are going to have to reexamine that relationship.

[0:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=27) We're gonna have to reexamine the value of NATO and that alliance for our country.

[0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=31) Ultimately, that's a decision for the president to make, and he'll have to make it.

[0:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=34) We're gonna finish the job here. As I said, we're very, very close to achieving our objectives on, on all of these things that I've outlined.

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=40) But I do think, unfortunately, we are going to have to reexamine whether or not this alliance that has served this country well for, for a while is still serving that purpose, or has it now become a one-way street where America is simply in a position to defend Europe,

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=54) but when we need the help of our allies, they're going to deny us basing rights and they're gonna deny us overflight?

[1:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3z98myyHrewy/en/nato-s-value-questioned-over-us-access-to-allied-bases?t=60) I think these are very legitimate questions that we need to be asking, and this are gonna have to be very carefully examined after this conflict is over.
