We raised on a mandate to advocate for and to represent those ignored left out and left behind our squad has been our squad includes any person committed to building a more equitable and just world and that is the work that we want to get back to and given the size of this squad in this great nation. We cannot we will not be silenced as we all know the recent tweets and words from the president are simply a continuation of his race this is you know phobic playbook we cannot allow these hateful actions by the president to distract us from the critical work to hold this Administration Accountable to the inhumane conditions at the border that is separating children from their loved ones and caging them up in the legal horrific conditions but then will trump is not backing down hes calling on the 4 women to apologize to america for what he described as the foul language that used in the terrible things they have said all White House Correspondent can really help get. These are people that in my opinion hate our country despite widespread outrage and accusations of xenophobia u. S. President donald trump on monday escalated his twitter tirade against 4 democratic congresswoman from diverse backgrounds arguing they should return to where they came from if youre not happy here then you can leave so far as im concerned if you hate our country if youre not happy here you could leave trumps comments follow a series of tweets sent over todays attacking Democratic Party representatives alexandria cast your cortez of new york ilhan omar of minnesota where she did to leave of michigan and they are not presley of massachusetts of the group only omar is foreign born but all are u. S. Citizens Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a resolution condemning trumps tweets as the congresswoman fired back this is simply a disruption and a distraction from the callous chaotic and corrupt culture of this administration all the way down i am not surprised at what hes doing.

K. s seizure of an iranian oil tanker. The vicious British Government committed piracy and a top down ship they commit crimes and legalize it theyre trying to legitimize this maritime robbery the Islamic Republic will not leave such vicious acts without a response lets get more now from door such a bar is joins us live from the iranian capital tehran bowser so what more has irans Supreme Leader been saying. Well he was quite hard on the British Government his views are very very clear that he considers the seizure of the grace one Super Oil Tanker on july 4th an act of piracy and that the British Government are trying to legitimize what theyve done he said that this was a maritime robbery the british navy seize this vessel on july 4th in the strait of gibraltar because they said it was heading to syria on the Syrian Governments. Sanctions so any Oil Shipments heading there would have been seized the rein in say that this is not the case that it was not for heading there and they dont recognize these e. U. Sanctions on the Syrian Government because they have not been indorsed by the United Nations so this is the 1st time weve heard the highest authority in the Islamic Republic saying that that this specific action by the british navy will not being left on and search so he also addressed another major issue thats been brewing here and that is the future of the 2015 Nuclear Agreement between iran and the world powers he said that according to the Foreign Ministry of the country the europeans have 11 commitments under this agreement and they have yet to fulfill any of them and now they criticize us for reducing our commitments to this agreement and he called this behavior insolent he said that iran will not stand for it and they will certainly continue to reduce their commitments to the nuclear deal of 2015 so very very hard the language that was used and we really get a sense of the direction that iran is heading they are not happy with how the europeans are abiding by this Nuclear Agreement and the Supreme Leader stating unequivocally that iran will continue to scale back its commitment to the nuclear deal some true.

Foreign ministers have suspended talks with turkey over an air transport agreement and called for the European Investment bank to review turkish lending turkish control of the northern part of cyprus is not internationally recognized Greek Cypriots control the south of the mediterranean island. And what are you up to them they make for many years we told if the Greek Cypriot side the e. U. Or the un do not recognize the rights of the Turkish Cypriot side as a guarantor state and we shall protect it and we started drilling what comes next as we told the e. U. If they take measures like these ones we will increase our drilling activities we currently have 3 ships in the area and we shall deploy the 4th vessel to the area and of course you know who has more now from istanbul. As for our statement so far it seems turkey is position in this and mediterranean it stance will not be changed if following the decision to curb contacts and funding for turkey turkey believes that this decision by the e. U. Is mainly politically motivated as a result of a pressure by greece and the greek cyprus this is what uncorrupt believes and the measures the measures that are mentioned will not be taken seriously turkey criticised the e. U. For giving political recommendations to Central Banks and investment banks and foreign minister cho schultz said that this is what the e. U. Has always been against then why are they doing this now also tricky believes that it has the upper hand in its relations with the e. U. Due to a reference a deal signed a couple of years ago for the Syrian Refugees turkey already holds 3500000 Syrian Refugees and it has the power to stop this in illegal refrigerate influx to e. U. Thats why a turkish minister said that turkey will continue on its presence in this and mediterranean currently it has turkey has 3 ships once this weekend to address ships and they said mediterranean and will be sending a 4th one. As soon as possible and the force ship is as is expected to be a suspect one yet another detailed description of the continuing war in yemen has been published and it makes for disturbing reading the independent organization what time of human rights documented the killing of hundreds of civilians last year homes markets and roads all targeted in indiscriminate strikes and ground attacks and then to personally landmines kill dozens the activists say both a Yemeni Government and hoofy rebels continue to recruit child soldiers soldiers from the Saudi Led Coalition are accused of torturing and sexually assaulting children and arbitrary arrests continue with yemenis being tortured and killed for their religious beliefs or for being media workers were rather more to walk hell as the chairman of montana for human rights which published that report she says both sides have been allowed to undermine civilian rights without consequences. There are no clean hands when it comes to parties to the conflict in yemen they are all committing horrible violations against civilians with a huge lack of accountability so its the humanitarian crisis but through this and he will report we are saying its also a human rights crisis which all the violations led to the humanitarian crisis what is the main obstacle to any accountability as you put it. Because. No one cares about what happening in yemen each party to the conflict has its own on lies the fear that will never be accountable so for example saudis and. They are stronger by being supported by their allies us here can france and who think themselves they hide behind the violations of their saudi and immaterial coalition and other so its the lack of accountability it just make it very difficult they have its a very preventable violations and necessary violations but they all doing this violations because they dont care so human if even if there is a war human doesnt have to be the worst humanitarian disaster its the worst humanitarian disaster because of the attitude of all parties to the conflict among the war and because they just dont care and no one pushed them to care saudi arabias Deputy Defense minister has met the u.
