They continued to talk on twitter. He wrote iran is playing with firement firement. Here is what sean spicer today. I think todays action speaks for itself in terms of the sanctions. He made it clear the deal they struck was a bad deal. They going to continue to be tough on iran in a way that was notice done in the last eight years. In the way the Associated Press notes the new sanctions represent continueuation limited punishment for iran ballistic activity over nuclear deal itself. It was drawn up before obama
left office. The new president sounds a lot like the last one. According to the times this is a quote, barack obama embracing key pillars including warning israel to Curve Settlement in the west bank and threatening sanctions for ballistic tests. Im glad we have heavy weights because im nervous. We have had a number of presidency destroyed about that issue. Whether iran contraon hostage why is he pushing them on this
ballistic tests . Their words are bigger and much more bellic
we re back with breaking news. fareed zakaria is here. before we get back to fareed, secretary of state tillerson spoke at st. andrews before leaving for the g20 summit in hamburg, germany. let s listen and then we ll have a talk. i think as we talk about our relationship with russia previously and we i think characterize it as being at a very low point, we have been engaged with russia for some time now to identify areas that we should have mutual interest in. syria is certainly one that is a very complex situation in terms of how we transition from the conclusion of a successful effort to defeat isis, destabilizing syria so we can begin what will no doubt be a lengthy process of political solutions that will lead to the future for syrians and syrian
