This is. From doha also coming up dozens of pakistani migrants a few drowned after the boat capsized off the coast of. Protests in kenya after another arrest over the mock you know gratian of the Opposition Leader plus. Well tell you about a chinese make a project through here that the lao government hopes will help open this country. A member of criticizing the f. B. I. s investigation into russian meddling in the twenty sixteen president ial election has been released after being declassified by u. S. President donald trump it was written by republicans says the f. B. I. And department of justice abuse that showed bias while investigating the alleged ties between his Campaign Team and the kremlin well the f. B. I. Had argued against its release saying it had grave concerns the document contained what it called material emissions a fact in a statement the agencys director Christopher Ray told staff he stood by them democrats say the members aimed at derailing special counsel Robert Mullers investigation into the campaigns alleged links to Russia White House correspondent kimberly hellcat reports. Republicans promised a bombshell that would destroy any idea the Trump Campaign colluded with the right. Government during the twenty sixteen president ial election but in the end it did not meet expectations President Trump declassified the memo written by Top Republicans allowing for its public release even against the advice of his own f. B. I. Director and the u. S. Justice department. The four page report which is part of a larger intelligence document argues f. B. I. Investigators looking into alleged truck ties to russia hit the fact some of their research was funded by Democratic Party sources it also claims the entire investigation was biased against donald trump from the beginning and that some agents expressed views privately and i think its a disgrace whats happening in our country and when you look at that and you see that and so many other things whats going on. A lot of people should be ashamed of themselves but democrats argue the memo is simply a summary of republican talking points based on in accuracies House Democratic leader nancy pelosi says its all part of a plan to distract americans from the russia investigation led by special counsel Robert Muller and alleged campaign ties to president Vladimir Putins government in a statement she said President Trump has surrendered his constitutional responsibility as commander in chief by releasing highly classified and distorted intelligence by not protecting intelligence sources and methods he just sent his friend putin a book a trump himself made the argument on twitter prior to the memos release that leadership at the f. B. I. And Justice Department are out to get him some analysts believe thats more evidence trump is actively obstructing the investigation if you look at the words out of mr trumps own mouth the very incriminating he said repeatedly i need somebody in the Justice Department who will protect me its doubtful the memos released will change Public Opinion about the russia investigation still there is now an effort by some democrats and republicans to literally protect the rush of probe from what many believe is a white house effort to derail the justice process kimberly held at aljazeera Washington WellMelanie Sloan is a former federal prosecutor who specializes in government ethics she says the white house appears to be trying to destruct the public with the release of the memos. I think theyre getting increasingly frightened about what Robert Mueller is up to there have been other stories this week about bob muller honing in on the pattern of the Trump Administration in trying to engage in a cover up we saw stories about the president s spokesperson hope picks saying that emails would never come out and we saw that in a previous spokesperson mark carollo had resigned because of his concern about obstruction of justice so i think that the white house is has thats all going on at one side so theyd much rather distract all of us with discussions about this memo which people who hadnt seen it said it would be a hundred times worse than watergate but yet as jim comey pointed out really theres nothing in it theres nothing new or particularly in lightning in it and so by the same token i think people will now say the people who support trump well see weve got this memo and this memo shows us how corrupt it is and i think a lot of people will never have looked at the memo or have no understanding about whats in it the democrats are going to vote to push a vote again on monday about releasing their own memo and late this afternoon the white house said if it goes to attempt to appropriate process there could be a way to release it but i think that that may be them stalling for time to avoid actually having to release the memo so well see what happens with the democrats vote on monday. The u. S. Military says it will modernize its Nuclear Weapons arsenal in response to concerns of a russias expansion of its capability the new Nuclear Strategy unveiled by the pentagon in n. Z. A bomb era push to reduce americas stockpile the defense secretary james mattis says the u. S. Needs to see the world as it is not as it wishes it to be a defense correspondent particle hain reports in washington. U. S. President donald trump never criticizes russian president Vladimir Putin but the pentagon is doing just that moscow retains a large stockpile of nonstrategic Nuclear Weapons and continues to modernize those as well as its Strategic Systems this report says aggression from russia concerns about china and north korea and potentially iran are the reasons the u. S. Needs to modernize its Nuclear Weapons and its changing the wording on when it could use them saying the u. S. Could use Nuclear Weapons in extreme circumstances to defend the vital interests of the u. S. Whats new is they added this line extreme circumstances could include significant non nuclear strategic attacks the military was asked to clarify what that means it would that also involve the employment of biological weapons against the Us Population or allies would involve the use of chemical weapons against our people would involve a conventional attack in other parts of the world the context in which an attack occurred on the United States or allies would be how we would evaluate the appropriate response the plan also calls for modernizing the Nuclear Arsenal thats something the last administration wanted to do and at the time they said it was going to cost more than a trillion dollars over thirty years this plan would undoubtedly be even more expensive and that has not been something that congress has been really willing to fund at this point. U. S. Also wants to build a new kind of weapon a Nuclear Warhead with less impact but critics say that could make nuclear war more likely they are literally having weapons that give the president more options to start a nuclear war and that is becoming dangerous quickly we have this president who we all know is impetuous irrational and not always unsound mind recently three high ranking former diplomats went to capitol hill with the warning that the Massive Destructive force of a Nuclear Weapon was no longer appreciated or even feared by some in those days people seem to have an appreciation of what would what would be the result of a Nuclear Weapon if ever used i fear people have lost that sense of dread the u. S. Under President Trump is trying to improve its Nuclear Arsenal and the potential reasons to use it they say in order to improve the odds it wont have to political hane aljazeera Washington Well the former u. S. State Department Official a son of god says the renewed emphasis on these types of weapons is troubling. I have no doubt that the professionals at the department of Energy Department of defense in the state department who analyzed those threats in developing the Nuclear Posture review had very good and Important Information where i differ with the final product that was rolled out the south after noon is its. Case that low yield Nuclear Weapons have any stabilizing or valuable role to play in today todays threat context in fact i would make the opposite case that there is no real such thing as a surgical Nuclear Strike on a potential enemy i also have observed that over the last ten to twenty years there is some very strong and compelling can conventional alternatives to a potential Nuclear Strike so this renewed emphasis on these types of weapons is troubling and does not leave our allies i think in a very strong position and i dont see how it compels china whose threat i think is somewhat overstated and certainly russia to alter their calculus.
