Itself as a large land mass. About 7 of ukraine with the occupation of Eastern Ukraine and as i said with a ceasefire with the beginning to pull back of heavy weapons those that have access to that territory increasingly monitors have had access to encourage and accelerate that process.

Drew bipartisan generosity we have supplied over to a hundred 66 million of support that is training for the National Guard and providing lots of really. What about weaponry . What has been given to the Ukrainian Government to recapture the territory . Those including shortrange or longer range have not provided that assistance but we have provided with that, that protection. With your indulgence another minute . Their reason the congressman from new york the house passed a resolution in march of this year about 88 bipartisan vote that is overwhelming and a little unusual. That resolution is an overw
Unknown president assad he has been pretty well defined over 14 years as the al white dictatorship that he has is pretty well defined over many decades. So let me ask a question. More than four years ago the administration called for regime changes not only did very little to make that, about but directly through the agreements with a chemical weapons departure and at this point isnt it time to ask the question what do we really want to achieve in syria . With a Free Syrian Army has cost us some incredible numbers i will not even say on television because it is a complete failure. We have no Free Syrian Army more are fighting independent than us than with us by a factor of thousand one. Is a time we figure out what is possible for those alight questions to return to their country . We do not believe it is possible either a political settlement or a military defeat now these issues are linked. And is a magnet for terrorist all over the world. I would differ every syrian army is day bust
Saying how delighted i am to have made my very first trip out of europe, as the very first also european commissioner for immigration, here in the United States of america. Europe and the United States are longstanding allies and partners. We share the same fundamental values. Freedom. Peace. Democracy. Our joint meeting here yesterday and today is another concrete example of how together we can be more effective in upholding and defending our common values. Needless to say, the relations between the European Union and the United States in the justice and the Home Affairs Area reflect the strategic character of our partnership. Not surprisingly, our meeting this morning with attorney general eric holder and his team was very successful. Very positive. Very friendly. And very productive. I also had a very fruitful meeting yesterday with the Homeland Security secretary, jeh johnson, which helped make the days meeting very a success. Today, as was said before, we discussed the future of t
Are pose a high risk for terrorist financing, or perhaps the weak spot may be with the other federal regulators, that the other federal regulators arent focussing and emphasizing on whether or not these banks are in compliance with the counterterrorist financing regulations under the bsa. But it seems to me its unacceptable, two banks, if you look at the actual orders issued, only two banks where i could find references in those orders to threats regarding terrorists claims. Yes, sir. In that light as we look at our partners throughout the world, we have relationships with him, many of whom we give tens or hundreds of millions of dollars of foreign aid, its always of concern to me of how we are not honored by our relationships with our partners and particularly in this situation thats so critical for the National Security and for theirs as well. To what extent, what would you advise us as a congress in Going Forward and how we could put greater pressure on these respective countries an
Conversation. I think that in addition to the reports that my organization has done, several reports that npi has produced, reports that the Bipartisan Policy Center put out, here is what is true and undeniably true, that last year there were only 10,000 nonborder recent border crosser ee crossers, noncriminals deported. You can level 3 and a single misdemeanor is an illegitimate criteria for deportation. I agree. We should eliminate the lower end. To deny as i would argue that many members in the media and many of the immigration groups have done of the substantial and significant and undeniable changes that have gone on i am not telling you that 10,000 is an acceptable number. Its too many. Still too many. We got to do better than this. But what is clear its on my website. Its on their website.
