00:00I wanted to ask you about your, you mixed up President Zelensky and Putin earlier today.
00:10You now have sort of your key allies, including the British Prime Minister, the President
00:13of France and the German Chancellor having to step in and make excuses for you on that.
00:19Officials here are saying off the record that your decline has become noticeable.
00:23Hasn't this now frankly become damaging for America's standing in the world?
00:27Thank you.
00:28Have you changed our standing in my leading this conference?
00:30Have you seen a more successful conference?
00:32What do you think?
00:34And the move, the Putin piece, I was talking about Putin and I said, and now at the very
00:38end I said, here, I mean, Putin, I said, no, I'm sorry, Zelensky and then I added five
00:47other names.
00:48Guys, the idea, anybody suggests that, that we haven't had an incredibly successful conference.
01:00How many times did you hear in that conference, I know it sounds too self-serving, but other
