Theyll face england or co hosts australia in the final in sydney on sunday. Even though they had the ball a lot, they did not create that much. I thought we had to work a lot in defence and i think we came out better in the second half but of course, losing like this and being so close to a final, it feels brutal right now. This is spanish history and that is it, its amazing. We make history playing the quarters, so to get to the final is just amazing. The players, we know how good we are, how good the team is, and we have to keep pushing. Wednesay s 2nd semi final is expected to be a sell out at the 81,000 capacity Stadium Australia and theres Fighting Talk from both camps as austraia and england renew their Sporting Rivalry once again. Being knocked out by anyone is kind of unthinkable. Theres probably a lot of english people that would love to see us knocked out by england, but i think theres more australians that would love to see england knocked out by us. So in terms of the rival

Ambassador how will they address this issue especially in the middle east and a more formal way . Especially with the Security Council . To read today was an important step as an informal meeting but but in 70 years no such meeting had happened before and we heard most o
Im daniel runde. We are talking about the nonmilitary components of the us strategy in afghanistan. I think the first thing you have to say is i certainly welcome, i think many people welcome the fact that the president has come forward with a new strategy four afghanistan without timelines and with a commitment to a great cause. I think that there are there is a moral component to this as well. There is a lot of progress. I think that does not get a lot of coverage on this. And so for us to risk letting all of dad go with the price way too high. We have been working on this for a long time. I have been working with ambassador wayne and the Senior Advisor here. We have done a lot of things with the ambassador. We have got a very good panel to cover the issues today but i think the other point i want to make is, you cant solve the challenges of afghanistan without diplomacy and without development.

Afghanistan. The first thing you have to say is i certainly welcome i think many people welcome the fact that President Trump and the Trump Administration has come forward with a new strategy for afghanistan without timelines and redoubling down on commitment to a gray cause. The fact that there are 3 Million Girls in school and theres a whole lot at stake in afghanistan not just our security but theres a moral component to this as well.
