And before I turn it
over to the Prime Minister,

75
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:06,230
I just want to warn the
American Press that the

76
00:03:06,233 --> 00:03:10,733
Prime Minister once considered
himself a journalist and instead

77
00:03:10,734 --> 00:03:12,204
he became a Judo expert.

78
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,730
