00:00I'll do it. I'll try it.

00:02What's the socket for?

00:04What's the socket?

00:06By the way, I heard good news.

00:08Good news is great.

00:10I tell you what, that's all because of the Prime Minister.

00:12We lost a game to the Labour government.

00:15Is football coming home, Prime Minister?

00:17It looks like it.

00:19Well, welcome.

00:21It's good to see you.

00:23We had a long conversation on the phone

00:25and you won and

00:27we're the best of allies in the whole world.

00:31We really need to continue to cooperate.

00:35A lot has been talked about.

00:37I think that

00:39quite often we talk about

00:41how football looks like soccer.

00:43By the way,

00:45soccer has become

00:47incredibly popular here in the United States.

00:49It really is growing.

00:51But anyway,

00:53there's a lot going on.

00:55I think we're

00:57seeing closer ties in Europe.

00:59I think we're all in this together.

01:01I think it's a great idea.

01:03We're going to be working together.

01:05So we had a good meeting today in NATO.

01:07Very good.

01:09And I think things are moving in the right direction.

01:13I'm really optimistic.

01:15Welcome, welcome, welcome.

01:19Thank you very much, Mr. President.

01:21First of all, congratulations

01:23on a really successful summit.

01:25It's been an incredibly important moment.

01:2775 years.

01:29A bigger NATO.

01:31A stronger NATO.

01:33And a NATO with the resolve that we need.

01:35I thought the

01:37medal, the honor

01:39for Jens Stoltenberg yesterday

01:41was very special.

01:43I don't think he was expecting it.

01:45No, he wasn't.

01:47He was leaving

01:49and I intervened.

01:51I swear to God, my knees were beating.

01:53I said, no, I'm not kidding.

01:55I talked him into staying.

01:57He still talked to me.

01:59I had love for him when he was just about to get

02:01the Central Bank.

02:03But let's say I'm free.

02:05I've been a newspaper.

02:07He's still in the job.

02:09He's done a great job.

02:11The special relationship is so important.

02:13It's forged

02:15in difficult circumstances.

02:17We've endured for so long.

02:19So we're very

02:21pleased to be able to come so early in

02:23the government to

02:25recommit to NATO.

02:27To recommit to the special relationship.

02:29To discuss

02:31these affairs with you is

02:33really important for us.

02:35I kind of see

02:37you guys as

02:39not tying the chain of

02:41ties together.

02:43The closer you are, the more

02:45we know

02:47what we have

02:49objected.

02:51I think that's absolutely right.

02:53Now we go into a cup final

02:55on Sunday.

02:57On top of all of that.

02:59I actually watched, I began to watch

03:01the game with the Dutch

03:03Prime Minister, but we left one arm.

03:09You guys are still talking on that?

03:11We haven't seen each other since.

03:13But anyway.

03:15We've got a lot to talk about.

03:17Thank you all for coming.
