I talk with countries, whether it's the Arab states or in the Middle East, and they talk about how they're glad to see us fighting against Iran. I talk with different countries in reference to Syria, and we talk about how we can get the Iranian influence out. We're talking about North Korea and what we need to do and the pressure we need to put on China. They're happy that we're finally beating up on Russia for what they've done in the Ukraine.
Nikki HaleyAssad is not going away, but we're not going to stop beating up on him. We're not going to stop saying that the way he treats the people in Syria is wrong, that he has actually killed his own people and America will never stand for that.
Nikki HaleyI think that, you know, Russia is full of themselves. They've always been full of themselves. But that's - it's more of a facade that they try and show as opposed to anything else.
Nikki HaleyI think what you can see is this is a president of action. I mean Donald Trump is not one that's going to sit there and talk for too long. If he thinks someone is wrong, he's going to deal with it.
Nikki HaleyAs I said, my parents loved that when they came to America, if you worked hard, the only things that could stop you were the limits you placed on yourself.
Nikki HaleyWhat we are is serious. And you see us in action, so it's not in personas. It's in actions and it's what we do. And that's why Russia was left on an island when it came to Syria. Everyone else isolated them with their connection with Bashar Assad and Iran.
Nikki HaleyChina and Russia play very different roles. They both are getting involved across the world in all different pockets. Their tentacles are everywhere. Russia is doing it through elections and through military actions and through trying to get involved in conversations. China is doing it economically. If you look at their infrastructure, they are everywhere in the world now and they want to continue to do that so that they have a stronghold.
