a formal mean launch of negotiations and at the same time mr president delivering real improvements on the ground that make a tangible difference to ordinary yemenis there were some tough negotiations to get this passed including an unseemly ryle between two allies the u.k. and the u.s. i'm told it even went to the office of the foreign secretary and the secretary of state one of the things that come out of the original draft resolution drawn up by the u.k. is the provision of accountability for crimes under international humanitarian law that something that would have targeted the saudi led coalition it seems the u.s. has been doing the coalition's bidding and got that section removed and so the government forces and who see fights as a blaming each other for violating the cease fire in data government forces released this video showing displaced yemenis after they say who could fight to shoulder the government held district of them and however the who sees accused

a truism in washington the u.s. president should have whom he wants serving in his cabinet but with the impending departure of gen madis from the pentagon as defense secretary there is bipartisan alarm here in washington that the u.s. is foreign policy going forward could be very disastrous a man who could be nominated to replace gym mat is as defense secretary jack cain said that he considers the resignation quote a strategic mistake and he is calling on president donald trump to reconsider jim madison's departure madis of course said on thursday in his resignation letter that he could no longer support the president's foreign policy objectives or national security priorities and that the president was entitle to have someone in the job who supports him one hundred percent both republicans and democrats are very worried now about what this means for the u.s.

is role on the world stage will the u.s. stay as a member of nato will the u.s. continue to support other international institutions will the u.s. become so isolationist that things that could not possibly pose some sort of security threat to the u.s. actually return groups such as a resurgent eisel will the u.s. be able to actually persuade north korea to give up its nuclear weapons all of these things now have legislators and foreign policy experts very worried and they say that there has to be something done in order to make certain that the way forward for the united states does not lead to something that could harm its national security interests. well the decision to withdraw forces from syria surprised and angered many in washington and with reports of a possible withdrawal of forces from afghanistan well that's got us leaders questioning president trumps foreign policy she has pretends he has more now

there's been no shortage of voices in washington expressing dismay at donald trump's decision to withdraw troops from syria and the subsequent resignation of defense secretary james mattis and shaken by the news because of the patriot that general secretary models. and now with reports that the president has ordered a withdrawal from afghanistan republican senator lindsey graham has called for congressional hearings on both decisions the foreign policy establishment is confronting one of its greatest fears the trump meant what he said on the campaign trail where for worse in the middle east that we were fifteen years ago i mean right now it's a disaster once trump filled his cabinet with people who did not share that view though the establishment thought it was safe i think it's fair to say that the establishment never wanted this moment to come meet us dabble in that is certainly as a member of that establishment in good standing. is unwilling i think to. ask and he's restored questions about u.s.

policy in the region and even if things haven't gone well and they haven't they're going ation is simply to persist there is skepticism about how deeply geostrategic trumps decision was and whether the president will even follow through. but several issues are reported to have been involved in the syria decision including the primacy of the us a strategic relationship with turkey and the avoidance of mission creep. in the last few months national security adviser john bolton has made it clear that the us was in syria to confront iran that was a position explicitly rejected in the tweet that announced the withdrawal we have defeated isis in syria my only reason for being that during the trump presidency the president writes the military itself is divided there are many senior officers in the military would think the serial deployments were long periods of time just aren't working and there are eroding military readiness but it's worth remembering that even with these proposed withdrawals the u.s. still has tens of thousands of troops

a massive in the region she had her town to the outer zero washington. the turkish president was thirty one has confirmed donald trump's decision to pull out from syria came after they spoke on the telephone well sir o'connor's other mark. we will not hesitate to take steps but of course for mr trump and as a result of that meeting he said to us this could you claim days from the area we see just where you will and we will continue if you give logistic support to us and now you can say they started to withdraw now our target is to fear the diplomatic relations and how we neutralized three thousand members interrupt us and we will continue p k k y p d e n y p j we will neutralize all of them and we have the capacity in the skills well the u.s. president is also moving forward with plans for a big but not total withdrawal from afghanistan salim ballasts has more on that. as

much as gridlock is a part of living in kabul so is the presence of u.s. troops for seventeen years thousands of american soldiers have been stationed in afghanistan and now there are reports that may be coming to an end for american millionaire we consider this good luck if they get lost and disappear from here would be very happy with. their own fourteen thousand u.s. military personnel in support an advisory role for more than two hundred thousand afghan troops but the u.s. numbers may be harped. we would be happy that u.s. troops are leaving if the f. can force as we're strong enough to defend us but unfortunately we do not have enough power to defend our country similar concerns were voiced three weeks ago by the general nominated to command all u.s. forces in the middle east if we left precipitously right now i do not believe they would be able to successfully defend their country prison ashraf ghani and his

government remained largely silent in response with organics chief advisor to tweet . most analysts believe that afghanistan would collapse with the departure of more than one hundred thousand troops but our brave defense and security forces prove these analysts wrong and defended the nation with great valor president donald trump has flip flopped on afghanistan coming into office he was for a troop withdrawal then last year increase the number of troops and said this there's no talking to the taliban we don't want to talk to the taliban we're going to finish what we have to finish what nobody else has been able to finish we're going to be able to do it but now the u.s. is talking to the taliban in peace talks again in momentum earlier this week u.s. taliban saudi pakistan and afghan representatives mit and the united arab emirates talks covered a possible cease fire and a complete u.s. troop withdrawal something the taliban says is normally go shabelle maybe we could look at it as a confidence building measures the taliban are requesting. for
