 Fifth, it's not NATO that actually, you know, given Trump's predilection, that's going to really stand. And in fact, the fact that AUKUS gets up the nose of the French, and particularly President Macron, almost every week will really play in our favour because Trump had fundamental issues with France and Macron in particular, you know?
So if you're going to play the man and not the ball, this is a really good thing to continue to play. The more Macron speaks about that and he's upset about it, the actually probably the better it plays in if Trump starts to pay attention.
