united states has been isolationist for two decades. president roosevelt was the one who was most credible in dealing with this world crisis and so while he ran for president a third time, he was elected and all of a sudden roosevelt sees opportunity not simply to become a third president, to become a great president, a president in the mold of abraham lincoln because roosevelt before almost anybody else in the united states in a position of responsibility or authority understood that the united states was going to have to fight in this war. roosevelt recognized something about adolf hitler that a lot of other people didn't or wouldn't acknowledge and that was hitler and hitler's regime required war for its legitimacy and hitler talked about -- by the time roosevelt was elected hitler hadn't crossed zone yet but he was going to. hitler had not -- he had talked about -- threw to the idea negotiated peace with britain but by this time winston churchill was prime minister of britain and churchill recognized something with hitler that roose

automobile investment in the united states. we would generate roughly 80- 100,000 new jobs. you may disagree with that and i appreciate it, but at the moment, and i might also add on top of that, a bunch of us is negotiating with auto manufacturers in europe who not only spec to come in and accommodate the new ground rules for the usmca, but to actually bring in more and we are very proud of that. north american content is at 75%, and 40-45% of automobile content will be made by workers earning $16 an hour. those are record numbers by far. with respect to union activity and collective bargaining activity, particular to our friends to the south in mexico, we made new ground and have broken new ground in every area to promote collective bargaining and to promote their rights and to hold the mexican government to international labor standards and international environmental standards. we have opened up the dairy farming issues and financial services and digital services, and most particularly, we have the strongest protections wri

so this seems like it's fully playing into the hands of the united states. states or would be in violation of the basic rule of the treaty and further developing its own military capabilities ok thank you down there that was done cohen in the united states for us we get more reaction now to enjoy and join rainer office is it your political analyst in consultant in these where this is saving always welcome thanks for coming on raina in your opinion do you think do you think this situation is irreversible what do you think the tayside can find some sort of common ground over the next six months. well from the perspective of europe and the all germany we have to be. an alarming development and we see that we are stepping back. behind. the cold war era at the end of the eighty's and therefore european countries are well advised to make pressure on the united states to renegotiate and you'll i.n.f. treaty and maybe this is also what is behind this move it's always hard to foresee what is his final strategy but the problem is actually that china is not bound by an

there's a lot on the books in the united kingdom. it is tied into brexit and so it's not been implemented and the baltic states have passed laws but to the best of my understanding in terms of sanctions deal only with visa restrictions, meaning designated individuals can't enter the territory of the states, but have no economic impact, which for obvious reasons is very important. so in december, the dutch foreign ministry led a conversation at the gathering of e.u. foreign ministers that happens on a regular basis around whether the european union would start the process of designing a law similar to the global magnitsky act that would hold across the 28 member states of the european union. that conversation is in very early stages. there is no draft text of the law that would put on the books this program might look like and a number of organizations including mine as you mentioned are involved speaking with member states and components of the european union around with a viable magnitsky program might look like. you asked about poi

i think we have to see this as an attempt by united states annapolis should to correct these kinds of situations a provocation and certainly we don't know all the details of what happened on the border with brazil at definitely we need to wait for a response from the pentagon government about whether. details of what happened and whether there will be investigations prosecutions of those officials that allegedly were involved but nonetheless we should recognize that over seventy men as well that are national humanitarian groups just came out yesterday denouncing what is being called a humanitarian aid effort on the grounds that it is a little side and it's an attempt by the united states to use humanitarian aid as a means of toppling the democratically elected by the government might as well as the united nations and other humanitarian bodies such as the international red cross and have criticized as politicization of aid by the united states government . what's the saving on can caracas where you are at the moment people buying into this the argument that this humanitarian aid can be

vice president mike pence in munich just last weekend and the united states commands all our european partners who have taken a strong stand against north stream to. and we commend others to do the same for the austrian chancellor went on to say that from his meeting with trump it was clear to him that the united states is particularly unhappy with germany over this issue however but has shown absolutely no sign of being willing to tear open damage its relationship with russia over the pipeline the flag of the up that you no one wants to be unilaterally dependent on russia but will receive russian gas not only the d.d.r. where i live but as soon west germany during the cold thing and they don't see why the times today should be so much verse that we can no longer see russia remains a partner whatever the feelings of the united states the gas is stet to start flowing later this year when north stream too is fully operational it will be sending an extra fifty five billion cubic meters of russian gas every single year under the baltic sea directly into germany i can harm who runs a germa

are german cars manufactured in the united states a threat to u.s. national security i think that that is an important question to answer and in my mind it's not a very credible argument for the united states you making ok you think it's a stretch as well and absolutely i mean especially especially right now as i said i mean with with much being weakened if he's just basically going to fire back all these people who are not going to be in his sight in america right now it's just that it's basically like two different polls and we will see more of america coming up until she lives and i hope that she will use the power that she has right now basically to this myth and and these arguments that have absolutely no sense ok well malta when you look at this exports of course crucial for germany similar situation here to china fifty percent of the economy is dependent on exports i'm just think business leaders are sitting up and paying attention to what they're hearing from washington that this is a president that potentially could make good on a threat yes

the united nations is calling on u.s. bonds rebels to allow safe passage for people fleeing violence in ice souls last pocket of territory in eastern syria the un's refugee agency says families fleeing to this camp in a hole have described a harrowing journey through minefields and open fighting at least twenty nine children have died mostly from hypothermia either during the journey or shortly after arriving the u.s. syrian democratic forces say it's not to blame for civilian casualties but the u.n. says more can be done to make people safer that we have approached the authorities who are effectively in control of the area where we need to work. we have as i said before we have also appealed to. those fighting and those with influence over those involved in the fighting to there are three most to grant safety for the civilians fleeing. and to obviously allow the humanitarian access in the areas where we need. some football news now and qatar has stunned the footballing world winning the asian cup for the first time maybe

that's unit by unit. so please deliver that to us. secondly there's a major question of readiness that's been raised here over and over. and thirdly, apparently the military is good at stacking containers to form some sort of a wall and laying concertina wire. what else did they actually do? and apparently they were deployed in the southeastern part of texas and the threat moved to san diego and tijuana. did the military move also to address that threat? all for the record having asked for that specific information i'd like to turn over my remaining time to the esteemed lady from oklahoma, ms. horn. >> thank you very much and thank you mr. secretary and admiral for being here today. my question focuses back on readiness for a moment. i'm curious as to the active duty troops that were deployed, where they were before their deployment and what they were doing before their deployment and what it took to get them down there. and the second part of my question is given that we've discussed the historical nature of the national guard workin

by the fact that we had a candidate for president of the united states, now president of the united states, who may, in fact, have been an asset or an agent of a foreign power. you know, i had a discussion with boris epstein in september of 2016 where i was talking about all the activities we were seeing between donald trump and the russians. and he said, are you accusing donald trump of being a traitor? that word is now being used publicly, openly, and the phrase treason, which technically it's not, but rhetorically, the president of the united states cannot go around tweeting about people who are investigating his activities as being treasonous because we may have that as a fact at the end of this. the president of the united states may have committed treason. >> manny, part of the issue here is that donald trump asked james comey for loyalty, or so that's the reporting. and that sort of becomes an issue. just like we're in uncharted territory when we're talking about treason and collusion and things like that with the president of the united states. we're also not in a world wher

the united states will therefore suspend its obligations under the treaty effective february second. we will provide russia and the other treaty parties with formal notice that the united states is withdrawing from the earlier treaty effective in six months pursuant to article fifteen of the tree. ok let's go to our current correspondence now don't take us through what pompei announced today he's in the united states rules to speak to people of. the european reaction dan let's start with you dan just run through what was said by. well the u.s. has long accused russia of violating the treaty without actually providing any credible evidence the u.s. is accusing russia of testing and deploying an intermediate range missile meanwhile russia has actually exhibited the missile and given detailed explanations of its characteristics moscow as strongly denied washington's accusations saying its land based missile fully complies with the ins requirements and u.s. officials didn't even bother to attend the testing of the missile in december which they were invited to this treaty the i.n.f. trea
