Yeah. I think we’d more than try to talk them out of it, we’d, obviously, at a minimum strenuously oppose it.”
“And, again, this is where we can look at the failed history of European external energy and infrastructure policy in which, you know, you have the German wandel durch handel, right, or change through trade, in which the idea is we’ll work with Putin’s Russia and try to make it more like us by building out infrastructure...
