We Should Learn To Tolerate Nuclear Weapons

Progress Is The Product Of Human Agency. Things Get Better Because We Make Them Better. Things Go Wrong When We Get Too Comfortable, When We Fail To Take Risks Or Seize Opportunities.

I'm Apologetic When I Feel Like I've Made A Mistake. And When I Have Done A Disservice To Myself Or Someone Else. But I Don't Feel A Need To Apologize For Doing Or Saying Something That I Think Needs To Be Said, Just Because It May Not Sit Comfortably With Somebody Else.

We Also Have Begun To Assess With The Ukrainians The Scope Of Their Larger Security Assistance Requirements. We Have Had Teams Out Making That Assessment With The Ukrainians. And We Have Already Provided Various Forms Of Equipment And Support To Ukraine.

There Is Not An Inherent Contradiction Between A Ukraine That Has Longstanding Historic And Cultural Ties To Russia, And A Modern Ukraine That Wants To Integrate More Closely With Europe.

I'm Sort Of In This Rhythm Where We Want To Make The Most Of The Time We Have, But When It's Done It Will Be Time For It To Be Done.
