He may have, I haven't seen the full interview, but I really wish he would have latched onto her own words there. "We're almost to the level of getting oil and gas out of the region that we were at before the war started."
If the goal posts are now to get back to where we were if we did literally fucking nothing, than why the hell are we there in the first place? That's even true to the nuclear proliferation agreements (the claimed reason we're there), where the goal was basically to get the same agreement Obama made but with Trump's name on it. You can't lateral move that, renegotiating an agreement like that isn't possible without the US making concessions.
