WOMEN IN THE ARMED FORCES BUT FOR PEOPLE IN THAT REGION AS
WELL.
WELL. >> THANK YOU, SENATOR.
ASHLEY?
ASHLEY? >> THANK YOU.
MR. YANG, IF YOU WIN THE 2020
ELECTION, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IN
YOUR FIRST CALL WITH RUSSIAN
PRESIDENT VLADIMIR PUTIN?
>> WELL, FIRST I’D SAY I’M SORRY
I BEAT YOUR GUY.
OR NOT SORRY.
AND SECOND I WOULD SAY THE DAYS
OF MEDDLING IN AMERICAN
ELECTIONS ARE OVER, AND WE WILL
TAKE ANY UNDERMINING OF OUR
DEMOCRATIC PROCESSES AS A ACT OF
HOSTILITY AND AGGRESSION.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WOULD BACK
ME ON THIS.
WE KNOW THEY FOUND AN UNDERBELLY
AND THEY’VE BEEN CLAWING AT IT.
AND IT’S MADE IT SO WE CAN’T
EVEN TRUST OUR DEMOCRACY.
THE THIRD THING I WOULD SAY IS
THAT WE’RE GOING TO LIVE UP TO
OUR INTERNATIONAL COMMITMENTS.
WE’RE GOING TO RECOMMIT TO OUR
PARTNERSHIPS AND ALLIANCES
INCLUDING NATO.
INCLUDING NATO. AND IT WAS JAMES MATTIS THAT
SAID THE MORE YOU INVEST IN
DUMATSDU
DUMATSDU DIPLOMATS AND DIPLOMACY THE LESS
YOU HAVE TO SPEND ON AMMUNITION.
THAT HAS TO HELP BUILD A
CONSENSUS NOT JUST AGAINST
RUSSIA BUT BUILD A COALITION
THAT WOULD HELP US PUT PRESSURE
AGAINST CHINA IN TERMS OF
TREATMENT OF THEIR ETHNIC
MINORITIES AND WHAT’S GOING ON
IN HONG KONG.
AND I WANT TO PROPOSE A WTO FOR
DATA BECAUSE UNFORTUNATELY WE
DON’T HAVE OUR ARMS AROUND IT.
THESE ARE WAYS THAT WILL
ACTUALLY GET RUSSIA TO THE TABLE
