I think it'd more appropriate for him to say the west, because Gondor is much stronger than any other nation near Mordor. I said North for a reason... North as in Dale and erebor.. Sauron wasn't interested in Dale and Erebor, being so distant. Sure, maybe Easterlings were, but Sauron was clearly the one in charge here.

Gondor was the main obstacle in the way of Sauron. If he took them out, Rohan and the northern kingdoms would fall easily.
