On Foreign Policy: Opposing Russia in Ukraine is not a top priority for us

Q: You do not believe that Russia taking over Ukraine would be bad for our national interest?

RAMASWAMY: I do not think it is a top foreign policy priority for us. I don't think it is preferable for Russia to be able to invade a sovereign country that is its neighbor. But I think the job of the U.S. president is to look after American interests.

On Foreign Policy: Russia/China alliance is the top threat America faces

Break up that Russian/China alliance because China's bet is that they're going to go for Taiwan, the U.S. won't want to be in simultaneous conflict with two nuclear superpowers at the same time. But if Russia's no longer at China's back and vice versa, we're in a stronger position.

And no other candidate in either party is talking about this. I think that's the top threat we face. And that's the focus of my foreign policy.

On Principles & Values: To put America first, we need to rediscover what America is

I'm running to something. What it actually means to be an American. I'm an America first conservative, but I believe that to put America first, we need to rediscover what America is. And I'm seeing the base across this country hungry for that message. And that's how we're going to win. Source: ABC This Week on 2023 Presidential hopefuls Jun 4, 2023
