Are you suggesting that the UK and its allies simply give up on the rules they've tried to promote for so long?

No, you don't ignore international law.

Looks like he does.

But you have to recognize, Laura, that there are many countries and bad actors in this world who do not obey the rules.

They don't follow the rules.

And if you take Putin's invasion by Russia of Ukraine or Iran's actions in Syria, spewing out, spreading violence and terrorism across the Middle East through their funding of Hamas, of Hezbollah, of the Houthis, etc.

If you think of North Korea and what they're doing, these are not countries that care about the rules.

So you know he's not going to do that? I don't

Do you have any sense of how soon this deal is going to be finalized? And do you trust that the United States is going to hold up its end of the bargain?

Oh, yes.

We regard it as finalized.

A deal is a deal.

And I have absolutely no doubt that the president and his colleagues, Secretary Lutnick and USTR, James Sengria, having said they would do a deal, have been true to their word, they delivered this deal, and I have absolute confidence that they'll see it through.

And it reflects the amazing confident relationship between our two countries and the cordial relationship personally between the president and the prime minister.

Now we can build on it.

Is the assessment of your government that Russia is at all serious about this?
