00:30.744 --> 00:33.531
^countries in the world, no other nation in the world

00:33.531 --> 00:36.491
^gives that kind of commitment to global peace and security.

00:36.491 --> 00:38.697
^So these other countries that are our allies

00:38.697 --> 00:42.864
^or our partners, they want United States help out there.
