For the g 7 as tensions with moscow heighten. President has called for reconciliation with russia when possible. On sunday tillerson blasted the kremlin as incompetent for allowing syria to hold onto chemical weapons. Meanwhile, resuming operations at the airbag base that was the target of u. S. Missile strike. That came in response to chemical weapons attack by bashar alassad. Russian tv aired this taking off from the air base. The video also showed some of the damage from those strikes. And it appears the forces resumed campaign of air strikes against rebel forces over the weekend. According to the syrian observatory for human rights, a serious of strikes on saturday killed at least 18 people and five children until the rebel controlled province. President trump does not seem to deterred syria president. According to state media, assad called the u. S. Strikes a failure. A navy admiral tells ri s reutee strike droid the means to deliver chemical weapons. Mapped out the next steps in bringing an end to syrias civil war. Reflected on the timing. I think you saw with the strike, there has to be a degree of simultaneous activity as well as sequencing of the defeat of isis first. What you have in syria is a very destructive cycle of violence. Perpetuated by isis, obviously, but also by this regime and their iranian and russian sponsors s we have to be able t Work Together with allies and partners no help resolve this conflict. The resolution of the conflict will entail each of the elements youre talking about. The defeat of isis. And halls has to bealso has to t change in the behavior of the regime. Do you think the administration did anything to encourage the behavior by saying the Syrian People would determine asaturdsads fate and removing him. I think it was probably partially to blame. Taking this action, i support and was important, but weve got to have a plan and strategy to follow through. Onetime deal is not going to be productive and saying were only going after chemical weapons areas ignores the enormity of the problem. Accelerate the demise of isil. Ive never been more encouraged by the Trump Administration than i am today. Ambassador haley just said on your program, youll never end the war with assad in power. That means regime change is the policy of the Trump Administration. Thats what ive heard. You need more american troops to accelerate the demise of isil. Were relying on the kurds. More american forces. Five or 6,000. President trump responded to skepticism over the effectiveness of the strikes. President trump tweeted saturday the reason you dont generally hit runways is they are easy and inexpensive to quickly fix. Fill in and top. Meanwhile the administration sent mixed messages. In late march, sec taf of state Rex Tillerson and ambassador to the United Nations said the United States was no longer focused on removing assad from power which was stated goal of obama administration, but after last weeks chemical attack, tillerson said steps were underway to form an International Coalition to push assad from power. The hands off policy has not changed. Warning of consequences from regime change. Regime change was the only option for the country. The Syrian People have no way to remove asaid. Thats going to take greater pressure from the United States. Weve seen that what takes when you undertake a violent situation in libya. Libya continues to be chaotic. The life of the libyan people is not all that well off today. Any time you go in and have a violent change all the top, it is very difficult to create the conditions for stability longer terms. Sounds like what youre saying right now there is no real change from United States military syria from what it was last week. Thats correct, george. Is it the position of the Trump Administration that he can no be ruler of syria anymore, regime change is the policy. Well, regime change is something that we think is going to happen because all of the parties are going to see assad is not the leader that needs to be taking place for air issia. This isnt about policy or not. This is about thoughts. Look at the thoughts. There is no political solution sha any of us can see with assad at the lead.

According to human rights, at least 18 people including five children were killed by those strikes in the rebel controlled through province. We mentioned secretary of state Rex Tillerson in russia. This as tensions continue to escalate following syrian strike. President trump has called for reconciliation with russia when possible, secretary tillson took a hard line. Slams Vladimir Putin for allowing syria to hold onto chemical weapons. Tillersons criticism comes after russia condemned the strike. Calling it an attack on ally. Operating other syria. Meanwhile u. S. Ambassador to United Nations. This following a u. N. Security counsel meeting on friday where she focused on russias role in syria maintaining a chemical weapon supply. Lets think about the possible reasons for russias failure. It could be that russia is knowingly allowing chemical weapons to remain in syria. It could be that russia has been incompetent in its efforts to remove the chemical weapons or it could be that the assad regime is playing the russians for fools. Telling them that there are no chemical weapons all the while stockpiling them on their bases. The world is waiting for the russian government to act responsibility the world is waiting for russia to reconsider misplaced alliance with bashar alassad. Turned compassionate supporters into critics. Accused of breaking proposition to keep the u. S. Out of another conflict in the middle east and criticizing him about law fiunc the strike without congressional approval. Egypt. Two bombings in chujs pa church packed with worshippers. The first bombing struck the saint george in the tanta and hours later in alexandria. This shows the aftermath of the attack in tanta. On the tanta tanta. Joining us now, matt bradley. Matt. Good to have you back with us. What are you hearing about the latest developments in the investigation and the claims of responsibility. Reporter thanks. Here in egypt, theyre literally picking up the pieces from this terrible attack that just happened yesterday. One of the most deadly attacks against this christian minority. Largest christian minority in the middle east. Funerals have been running all day. Among them a female police officer, all of these Police Officers are being held as heros. This is apparently the First Female Police officer in egyptian history to have been killed in action. Day of devotion turned to horror. The crowded palm sunday mass in Saint Georges church north of cairo ripped apart by what Police Believe was a bomb placed under a pew. Hours later a suicide bomber at Saint Marks Church in alex sand right knee why. Blowing himself up just feet away from a playing child after Police Stopped him from entering the church. That officer now hailed as a hero. The twin bombings have left 43 dead. More than 100 injured and the middle east largest Christian Community in shock. Many of the dead are children. The situation is pain. A relative of one of the victims said. Why werent proper measures taken to protect the people. Isis quickly claimed responsibility for both attacks. Fulfilling a pledge to target egyptian christians. Egyptian president met with President Trump just last week. The two leaders pledged to fight isis terror together. I just want to say to you, mr. President , you have a great friend and ally in the United States and in me. Mr. Trump tweeting after todays attacks, he has great confidence in the egyptian leader. Experts are not confident in what so far appears to be President Trumps unclear middle east policy. Isis and its affiliate attacks against the two churches really show the inability President Trump to understand the complexity and the gravity of the crisis in the middle east. A vulnerable minority for who isis remains the top concern. And now a lot of that scrutiny and fear is moving east to egypts border with israel right along the peninsula. Israeli government has shut the border and asked all citizens many of whom vacationed in the sinai to return to israel. We should talk about this a little bit. Chilling to the Christian Community. You have the president coming back from his visit with donald trump and thats going to be a bit of a high. There was a good warm relationship there established. Now what . How does this affect his government. Definitely undermines his central message. If you recall, sisi came into power and has been governing under the mandate hes restoring law and order and security to ordinary egyptians following the te multiwould you say transition period from 2011. Hes a good champion of fights isis and fighting the terrorist organizations that are becoming more potent in egypt. He also had a message for the minority community. Met with jewish and Christian Faith leaders in washington and ensured the state of egypt was going to do a lot to protect minority rights because theyve been coming under attack by isis and other groups. Now you see attacks. There have been several Church Attacks in egypt. Have to start questioning whether or not the state is competent enough to protect the churches and the community there. I think a lot of people are questioning whether the state is doing enough. There is security at churches, but clearly even in incidents like this, people are still losing their lives. A lot of questions surrounding this and compense of government. It istence of government. It is. Kt mcfarland being reassigned. Likely to be nominated as ambassador to singapore. Brought on by michael flynn, forced out in february. Since then, theres been an ongoing severing of flynns ties to National Security counsel. What has been called a flynn eraser led by hr mcmaster. Now comes just after white house senior counselor steve bannon lost his seat on the National Security counsel. Yesterday said the decision to take bannon off was not significant. The president can get advice from anybody he wants and he does that. He asks a broad range of people who he trusts and steve bannon is one of them. About policy decisions and about the risks and opportunities involved with each of these. None of that has changed. Do you think it was inappropriate to have a political adviser in that role. No. I think what is appropriate to have in that role whoever the president wants in that role. I think steve bannon provides the president will advice on a broad range of issues and will continue to do so. The Administration Source tells nbc news mcmaster is looking around widely for new deputy. Mcmaster defending the decision to send the strike group to sea of japan. Yesterday mcmaster called the move prudent considering north korea pattern of provacative behavior. Adds the move is meant to maintain readiness and presence in the region. North korea has conducted four Missile Launch tests this year alone and rocket engine test as well. Lets turn to business. Ceo of barclayss under investigati investigation.

See whether he was going to use the same terms here and also of course tomorrow when he meets lavrov in moscow. Also will be interesting to see whether what his view is on syria. Hes gone back and forth on assad in the past few days and weeks as you can hear now. I think the status and the longer term status of president assad will people. Assads role in the future is unclear certainly. With the acts he has taken, it would seem there would be no role for him to govern the Syrian People. Will you and President Trump organize an International Coalition to remove assad. Those steps are under way. Any time you go in and have a violent change at the top, its very difficult to create conditions for stability longer term.
