Transcript

00:00Thank you very much, sir.

00:05We all know the great Prime Minister of the UK, and we just signed a document.

00:23This is... Sorry about that.

00:27A very important document.

00:31A little windy out here.

00:33We just signed it, and it's done.

00:36And so we have our trade agreement with the European Union, and it's a fair deal for both.

00:43It'll produce a lot of jobs, a lot of income, and we have many, many other ones coming.

00:50But you see the level of enthusiasm is very good.

00:53But the relationship that we have is fantastic.

00:56So I just want to be reiterated.

00:59But Donald, thank you very much.

01:01This now implements on car tariffs and aerospace our really important agreement.

01:07And so this is a very good day for both of our countries, a real sign of strength.

01:11So thank you again, Donald.

01:13A really important day for both of us.

01:15Great people.

01:16Has I even changed any agreement since you spoke on the phone from the Oval Office?

01:21How much?

01:22Nope.

01:23This is implements.

01:24May I ask you a question, please?

01:27A few seven leaders are calling for de-escalation in Israel and Iran, but you are the key to unlocking that.

01:34That's right.

01:35And here I am.

01:36And here you are.

01:37So can I ask you, sir, have you spoken to Prime Minister Netanyahu?

01:42When might you speak to him?

01:44I've spoken to everybody.

01:45What were you saying?

01:46Israel is doing very well, as you probably noticed.

01:51And I gave Iran 60 days and they said no.

01:58And the 61st, you saw what happened.

02:01Day 61.

02:03So I'm in constant touch.

02:06And as I've been saying, I think a deal will be signed or something will happen, but a deal will be signed.

02:11And I think Iran is foolish not to sign one.

02:15Mr. President, Iran is accusing Netanyahu of attacking them to deliberately derail your nuclear plan that you had.

02:22What do you say to that?

02:23Do you think that's true?

02:24No, no.

02:25Look, Iran should have signed the deal.

02:27If it would help bring Iran to the negotiating table, would you guarantee that the U.S. would not get involved militarily?

02:33Well, I think this.

02:34I think Iran basically is at the negotiating table.

02:37They want to make a deal.

02:38And as soon as I leave here, we're going to be doing something.

02:42But I have to leave here.

02:43I have this commitment.

02:44I have a lot of commitments.

02:45I have a commitment to a lot of countries, including the U.K., where we just signed our deal.

02:50Mr. President, when will you settle on steel?

02:54Do you have that information in a little while?

02:56We're going to let you have that information in a little while.

03:01On Russia, do you say talks, sir, on U.S.-Russia talks?

03:04When will they restart?

03:05They're starting already.

03:07Mr. President, do you want to embrace the U.S. to apply more sanctions on Russia?

03:13Do the U.S. support that?

03:15Well, Europe is saying that, but they haven't done it yet.

03:18Let's see them do it first.

03:19You told me earlier that you could sanction Russia.

03:22Why wait?

03:23Why wait to sanction that?

03:24Because I'm waiting to see whether or not a deal is signed.

03:27Can you guarantee the U.K. won't be such a deal?

03:29And don't forget, you know, sanctions cost us a lot of money.

03:32When I sanction a country, that costs the U.S. a lot of money, a tremendous amount of money.

03:37It's not just, let's sign a document.

03:39You're talking about billions and billions of dollars.

03:42Sanctions are not that easy.

03:44It's not just a one-way street.

03:45And just quickly, do you think that Israel can...

03:48Is that still proceeding with the U.S. sort of working with that?

03:53Yep, we're proceeding with that.

03:54It's a really important deal to both of us.

03:56I think the President is doing a review.

03:58We did a review when we came into government, so that makes good sense to me.

04:01But it's a really important...

04:02We're very long-time partners and allies and friends,

04:06and we've become friends in a short period of time.

04:09He's slightly more liberal than I am, to put it mine.

04:12Oh, he stands slightly on the left.

04:13But for some reason, we get along.

04:15We might do well.

04:16Mr. President, did you just see Ukraine giving away of arming Israel?

04:19There's quite a few British voters who worry

04:23you side more with the Russians over the Ukraine war.

04:26Can you reassure...

04:27No, no, no.

04:28I just...

04:29You know what I said?

04:30Saving lives.

04:31I only care about saving lives.

04:33We have nothing to do with it except that Biden stupidly let us get into that mess

04:38and gave him $350 billion.

04:40$350 billion.

04:42And yet, despite that, you saw how we did in the Middle East.

04:45We took in $5.1 trillion.

04:47We have $15 trillion, almost.

04:50Looking around that number, going to be invested in the U.S.

04:54So, the money is not the thing in this case.

04:57It's 5,000 young people being killed every week, in Russia, Ukraine.

05:03And if I can stop that, I'll be very happy.

05:05They're Ukrainian and they're Russian.

05:07So you could say, What am I doing?

05:09But I'd like to see if I could stop it.

05:10The Press Press.

05:11You think that Israel can fully eliminate the threat that Iran poses,

05:15this nuclear threat that they pose, without the United States military help?

05:18Who said that?

05:19No, I'm asking if you believe they can.

05:21It doesn't. It's irrelevant. Something's going to happen.

05:23Have you spoken to the White House?

05:25Yeah, but I think we're doing pretty well. We're talking.

05:31We have a thing called a telephone, so we're talking.

05:36It's always better to talk in person.

05:41I want to see no nuclear weapon in Iran,

05:44and we're well on our way to making sure that happens.

05:47We've had a discussion about that this morning.

05:49In the Q7, absolute clarity in relation to the nuclear program.

05:53We do not want to see it.

05:54Mr. President, can you guarantee the UK will be protected from any future tariffs?

05:58What?

05:59Can you guarantee the UK will be protected from any future tariffs?

06:02The UK is very well protected. You know why?

06:06Because I like them. That's why.

06:08That's their ultimate protection.

06:09Thank you very much.

06:10The Prime Minister's done a great job.

06:12I want to just tell that to the people of the United Kingdom.

06:16He's done a very, very good job.

06:17You know, he's done what other people...

06:19They've been talking about this deal for six years, right?

06:22Six years.

06:23And he's done what they haven't been able to do.

06:25So he's done really a very good job.

06:27Do you have any response to Tucker Carlson criticizing you,

06:30saying that you were complicit in the war?

06:32I don't know what Tucker Carlson is saying.

06:34Let him go get a television network and say it so that people listen.

06:38And quickly, have you spoken with Zelensky before your bi-last?

06:42Yeah, a lot of them.

06:43Japan?

06:44A lot of them.

06:44Could happen.

06:45Could happen?

06:46Could happen?

06:46Japanese, sir.

06:47Well.
