Of children that will never forget what we did to him. Condemnation of the treatment at children at the u. S. Mexico border. Hello. U. S. Ins ambassador to the has resigned, saying it is impossible to stay on after President Trump said he would no longer deal with him. He described the Trump Administration as clumsy and inept. We have this report. There is no precedent for this. Senior diplomats forced from office after an attack on his credibility. Prime minister. The Prime Minister and leader of the opposition expressed which you can only call thinly disguised outrage at what is seen as an assault on the integrity of the u. K. Diplomatic service. Good government is Diplomatic Services giving good and frank device. I want our servants to have the confidence to do that. The fournette Affairs Committee tried to make sense of it. Foreign Affairs Committee tried to make sense of it. Know we hadtime i difficulty with the United States was 1856. [laughter] accused ofas recruiting americans to fight on the british side in the crimean war. His positionel, had become untenable since President Trump decided to blackball him following criticism of him and his administration. Come on. The straw that broke the camels back was the debate between jeremy hunt and Boris Johnson in the race to become the next Prime Minister. Supported him and trump had no business interfering, but johnson didnt. Had hised to say he back as the uks man in washington. I will keep him until he is due to retire. I will not be so presumptuous. It seems he decided that johnson was prepared to throw him under the bus in favor of his support for trump and a favorable trade deal with the usa as part of briggs did. Of briggsthis it. The logic of this is that any country will have to think twice about expressing their opinions openly, even in secret diplomatic cables for fear they might be leaked, but apart from that, if Borst Johnson becomes Prime Minister, he will be faced with a Foreign Office furious with his perceived role in bringing down one of their own. Will pick thef next ambassador to washington. The question is will it be a neutral diplomat or political appointment . Brexit is taking more victims come at this time at the heart of government. In. A former u. S. Ambassador to deputy russia and secretary general of nato said it was impossible for the diplomat to continue doing his job and trumps response was not surprising. It looks to me it was mainly the black lane by President Trump and the administration that made it almost impossible for the ambassador to do his job. Course pushra came from Borst Johnsons failure to stand up for the Johnsons Boris failure to stand up for the ambassador. The u. K. Needs to be represented, but somebody with access, and clearly he lost that access. The president hates to be criticized or ridiculed, and these leaked telegrams have pretty sharp language. This is the standard of many assessments of President Trump, but he usually lashes out and tries to demean people who way, and him this he lived up to his reputation. Trump has warned he will increase sanctions on iran soon and accuse tehran that secretly youre itching enriching uranium. It says it has nothing to hide. As the 2015 Nuclear Deal Falls apart, the task of saving it now falls to france. The french president s top diplomatic advisor walk the line between economic pressure and diplomatic pressure on europe to ignore u. S. Sanctions if they want to keep the nuclear deal alive. If he had hoped he could convince iran not to reduce cooperation with the plan of action, he likely left disappointed. Iran said the rollback. When sanctions do. Rollback will stop when the sanctions do. The americans are asking for an emergency meeting to complain about iran, which is meeting its commitments. The u. S. Says iran has bad intentions. If enrichment is bad, why do they enrich themselves . The only country using weapons against innocent people is the u. S. Iran curbs Nuclear Activity so it can sell oil and generate revenue. Whenprocess stop working the u. S. Restarted sanctions, and now it is playing out on the open seas. The British Royal marines seized an Iranian Oil Tanker off the coast of gibraltar. Tehran has scalded an act of piracy that undercuts its commitment to the nuclear deal. On wednesday, u. S. Officials put out a call for countries willing to form a military coalition to patrol shipping lanes, a move that could make things even worse. The potential for things going awry, and getting an agreement is difficult as well. Every nation retains their own rules of engagement. President has said it is time for dialogue. American sanctions did not bring iran back to the negotiating table. Not has now said it will stop cooperation for anything short of lifting of sanctions, but the british seized an tanker inl International Waters because america asked him to. They are now calling on other militaries to patrol waters to protect shipping lanes from what they say is an iranian threat. All hopes of a negotiated solution to any of this might be overly optimistic. Continue to pour scorn on the u. S. At an emergency meeting of the iaea in vienna. We have more. Tothe most important thing come out of this meeting at the iaea is that iran is not at this moment planning to take any further steps away from the nuclear deal, though its envoy 60 daysrm after another after the parties have not come back into full compliance with their commitments to iran under the deal, particularly the europeans and their commitment to protect irans economy under the deal, then it will be prepared to launch a third phase of actions in response, but pointing out no Firm Response has yet been decided upon by tehran. Ambassadors in the room that the enrichment is its right and for peaceful purposes and iran has never tried to create or acquire weapons of mass destruction. He painted the u. S. As the ultimate aggressor in the region and the current state of the nuclear deal. We know the issue of enrichment, this is the right of every member to the treaty, and this is irans right. What we are doing is in a trance manner transparent under the surveillance of the iaea, all the activities under management, we have nothing to hide. What thequestionable u. S. Feels it will have achieved out of this meeting, a meeting a iaea,hat all of the looking presumably for some International Unity or purpose towards iran, and finding instead in the room only division. No formal conclusion reached by this meeting, the board simply saying all the parties must come back into compliance. The division is clear among the signatories to the deal. Frances military admitted antitank missiles found in libya belong to the french army. The missiles were recovered from a libyan warlord on the outskirts of tripoli. Frances military says the missiles were originally intended to protect antiterrorism forces in libya and did not violate an arms embargo. We have more from paris. And reuters say they have received a statement from the French Defense ministry, in which the Ministry Says these missiles are indeed french, u. S. Made jeff lynne missiles the french gave Jeff Lynne Jeff Lynne missiles gave the french. The French Defense ministry also these missiles were defective and were supposed to be destroyed. What this statement doesnt say is how these missiles ended up tothe hands of forces loyal the warlord. That is a big question, potentially an embarrassing one for the french government, because the french government has always said they are not providing weapons in breach of a weapons embargo to libya. Critics have accused france of supporting the warlord in the fight against fighters in the region, but france has always denied that and said they would back publicly that you and peace process.

House of Representatives Oversight Committee is looking into the deteriorating conditions in Detention Centers at the southern border with mexico. House democrats have said the state of the migrants is demoralizing. As soon as we touch their hands or look them in the eyes, they broke down because they had never felt connected to people. It was demoralizing and dehumanizing. The mere showing of love, that someone cares about them, brought them to tears. We are creating a generation of children that will never forget what we did to him. This type of trauma cap go away. Cant go away. This kind of trauma will live on for decades. No amount of apology can repair them. We always want to apologize after. Nothing will make up for what we did. These are children that will be 15, 17, 18 years old remembering with the United States of america did to him. Emotions running high during that hearing. At all yourt typical hearing on capitol hill. It was very emotional. You heard some of it right there from the congresswoman expressing the outrage at this policy of separation in the detention of children at the u. S. Border in facilities that were not designed to do that. You did have some pushback from republicans, one congressman from texas that he objected to the title of the hearing, kids in cages, Inhumane Treatment at the border. A nice official invited by republicans who said those facilities were not designed to hold that many people for as long as they have been held, and he blames a surge from Central America of immigrants who are fleeing poverty and violence in their own countries and said there needs to be a solution, but these facilities cant be blamed and the administration cant be mostd, but perhaps poignantly what we heard was a young mother talking about the death of her young 19monthold daughter after being held in one of those facilities, where she says her daughter got a viral lung infection and died shortly thereafter. This is just a little bit of what she had to say. It is like they tore out a piece of my heart, my soul. I wanted a better life for her in a Better Future and work her so she could keep growing, but now we cant do that because she is gone. I am here today because i want to put an end to this and make sure we do not allow any more children to suffer and die in this way. Usin washington, that leaves with the standoff over this policy, one that everyone agrees is in crisis, but the crisis is dependent on who you are. The crisis is the detention in those facilities themselves. President trump says he plans on more raids in places like los angeles and texas fairly soon, so this could ultimately be decided perhaps only by the 2020 election. Thank you very much indeed.
