Nicholas Trist Talk about the treaty!!

This week reporter Andrea Quintana got the chance to interview the Chief Clerk of Cuba Sir Nicholas Trist. Here is what they said:

AQ: What made you choose to work for the president of Cuba?
NT: It was something that never occurred to me, I worked as a Chief Clerk which I still do, and after a while I started speaking to the president James J Polk and he really liked me. We later became great friends and he asked to me work for him and it turned out great.
AQ: After you worked for Mr.Polk, What happened for the friendship to end?
NT: I wouldn't say the friendship ended, it's just ended up on the wrong track. Me and Polk never wanted it to happen but as he realised that I was becoming great friends with General Winfield Scott he wasn't very happy. It was after a while that i realised that it was bothering him. Since it was during the U.S-Mexican war, I felt that I needed to be there for him.
AQ: What made you go against Mr.Polk in the U.S-Mexican war?
NT: During the war, I thought it was very unfair and a waste of time. I told him many times that there was no reason to fight for more land. He got very mad at me and I decided to make a peace treaty because it had to somehow end.
AQ: When you helped sign the treaty did you ever feel like you and Mr.Polk were almost enemy's now?
NT: No Not at all, As I was signing it I felt that I was doing the right thing and that the war could be over soon. I stayed positive and made sure that It went as it was suppose to.
AQ: Finally! how does it feel to know that thanks to you the war is over?
NT: It feel great and I hope that people know, that if you can end a war, do It.
AQ: Thank you so much Mr.Trist
NT: You're very much welcomed
