Made products but cutting trade ties with the worlds 2nd largest economy wont be easy as elizabeth reports. Gathering the chinese products from their homes and setting them on fire. Burning effigies of president xi jinping along with the chinese flag. Already facing billboards advertising chinese products people have protested across india calling for both military and economic action after 20 indian soldiers were killed along the border with china for the 1st time in 45 years what china is doing it is very young fortunate if a country is going to treat india like an enemy then we should also.

If he is rejecting a push by egypt to refer a dispute over its not river dam project to the Un Security Council talks between ethiopia egypt and sudan have sold again after resuming earlier this month egypt is worried the grand renaissance dam will take away water its people need to survive ethiopia sees a project as an important step in helping to pour millions out of poverty. Issue the issue with the day can be solved right here instead of taking it to the u. N. Security council we believe this is not the mandate of the Security Council this project is a developmental project the president of the sits for the world in the future is very bad this can also be considered as interfering in a sovereign nations peaceful activity therefore it is not right to do it Joseph Siegel is director of research at the Africa Center for strategic studies based at the National Defense university he says egypts latest move is far eastern strategy to extract more concessions from ethiopia.

Theodore roosevelt and for his investigation had recommended that the navy give him back his job well then 1000 same as on the ship tested positive and one died. From the virus mike hanna is in washington with more on the investigation. Well admiral Michael Gilday whos the head of Naval Operations was the senior officer who originally asked for the captain to be reinstated he has been at the top of that investigation and hes now made an announcement that if hed known then what he knows now he would never have recommended reinstatement he says he found a number of command issues with both the captain and the strike commander of the fleet of which Theodore Roosevelt is a part and he along with the captain have now been basically reassigned they will not get any further promotions so essentially the careers have been put on hold but the key to this according to good to admiral gilday is the fact that chains of command were not properly followed at the admiral commanding the strike force had not being told by the captain aboard the same vessel he was on that this letter was going out so he found in retrospect after this lengthy investigation that there were real command and control issues involved and that the reassignment of the captain should go ahead the u. K. France and germany say they wont support washingtons efforts to reimpose u. N. Sanctions on iran the u. S. Has threatened to trigger the sanctions if the u. N.

The goal is to preserve our heritage and to tell the world what we have in our country we are not looking for profit we are ready to lose money to promote our heritage as iraq slips deeper into a fiscal crisis sustaining such state owned companies could become increasingly difficult the solution to reviving traditional craftsmanship like many other sectors of iraqs economy lies not for much in Government Programs but in the private sector there is one company in back of that that is trying to do just that. The selling point for this company is quality and the made in iraq label its workshop a dozen employees to work on modern versions of traditional iraqi furniture. But convincing customers to pay extra remains a challenge and lowering the price would require scale and an environment that supports private Sector Investment on and. In my opinion the state isnt focused on industry.
