parts america's new role in the world comes in stark contrast to the era president biden announced she wants to end the war in yemen and another change in policy is biden's plan to return to the nuclear deal with iran so there are many foreign policy challenges waiting for him but more important and president biden made that clear in his address is the situation back home in the united states the pandemic and the economic crisis continue to be number one on his agenda. the international criminal court has convicted a former rebel commander from uganda of war crimes including multiple mud as rape and systematic forced marriages judges in the hague found that dominate on when is a former commander in the lord's resistance army he is the 1st n.r.a. commander to be put on trial and convicted by the i.c.c. after sentencing he could face life in prison. children's drawings of executions
