00:00I'm going to go to the back.

00:01I'm going to come —

00:02Kelly.

00:03Thanks.

00:04Thanks, Karine.

00:05I'm going to go back to the NATO meeting, if I could.

00:06Sure.

00:07Polling this week shows the President losing more ground in the American eyes over immigration,

01:06The Prime Minister of Israel, Bibi Netanyahu.

01:08I have had more than a dozen phone conversations, extended phone conversations, with President

01:20I found him very clear and very focused.

01:21I mean, these are — these are leaders that he has had extensive engagement with over

01:28the past three years.

01:29They have seen him up close and personal.

01:32The President looks — very much looks forward to hosting NATO next week, the NATO summit.
