“I feel really good about the geopolitical neighborhood they have to live in compared to the one we have to live in surrounded by powers that will challenge them over time militarily, politically, diplomatically. Um, whatever you think of our current relationships with Canada and Mexico, longtime friends and uh, good neighbors by and large.”
