How to use drawbridge in a sentence?

  1. Germany Prime Minister David Cameron:

  2. The President:

    We've got to learn the right lessons from that. The lesson is not that we pull up the drawbridge and build a moat around ourselves, the lesson is that we've got to make sure that the trade deals that we do shape our ones that allow us to compete fairly.

  3. Amnesty International deputy director:
