Russia is set to hold Regional Elections next month devonian his allies had been campaigning to get their candidates elected but for now his family and friends are holding on to hope that not only pulls through. But lets cross over to our Washington Bureau for more on reaction from the u. S. And deja vu correspondent. Is joining us hi abbi weve seen and heard germanys response to the apparent poisoning of Alexei Navalny but what about the United States how has. The latest developments been received there. Thats right pablo in that report there we heard strong condemnation from angola markel weve also heard strong remarks from Boris Johnson and other World Leaders and we would certainly expect a similarly sharp reaction from a sitting u. S. President unfortunately we havent heard that directly from donald trump as of right now a few hours ago though the National Security council did tweet that the u. S. Is deeply troubled and called the poisoning of a completely reprehensible act they also say that the United States will work with its allies and the International Community to hold those in russia accountable interestingly we also heard from former National Security advisor john bolton who either quit or was fired pending on who you ask he tweeted that trump should demand answers from moscow and as youll remember he was one of the hawkish figures in the trumpet ministration when dealing with the russians but again trump hasnt directly said anything yet and this lack of response may not be surprising given trump has been reluctant to criticize russia in the past but at the same time we have to remember that the u. S. Did join an International Effort in 2018 after the poisoning of former russian spy a survey screwball and his daughter washington did impose sanctions on moscow and expelled dozens of Russian Diplomats what about the democratic president ial candidate joe biden he was speaking earlier today in wilmington delaware what did he have to say. Thats right pablo biden did take questions actually from the press today and was mostly domestic issues however when the vuln and 1st ill biden was quick to slam trump for being weak on russia this has been a widely held belief by democrats throughout the Trump Presidency as we know and it started with the alleged russian interference in the 2016 election which trump continues to downplay and dismiss more recently the president brushed off reports that russia had placed bounties on u. S. Soldiers in afghanistan and biden has repeatedly said that he would be much tougher on putin and other autocrats if he were the commander in chief that trump is more than happy to cozy up to offshore tarion leaders and pick fights with allies which has hurt americas standing in the world to be front and center on days like today pablo.

To be described and i remember every time one of them opened something carbonated they flinched because they were unaccustomed to it so we responded immediately calling radio stations and spreading the word on facebook only stand still water or if they didnt know about sparkling water it scared them to death when they opened up this march toward your script. How many refugees arrived. The numbers today show in 2015 there were almost 750000 asylum applications after that the numbers dropped significantly.
