see him now speaking in manhattan to the women's national republican club. he is making his statement right now. this is new york city. my time regrettably it's a period i will make way for neil cavuto. it is yours, sir. >> thank you area, very much. the president continues. he is now in argentina with the president and the newly elected president. this is on the 40th anniversary of the last major coup in argentina and still not going down well who associate a lot of murder at the behest of u.s. generals. that is their view. that will likely come up around the country. barack obama had nothing to do. but you know, grudges die slowly. argentina is in the middle of rebuilding itself, but we are focusing on the statements afterwards, particularly criticism that has come of the president. they say he should be more attentive to the noise abroad

and what's going on in brussels. it might be for him to be back in washington to deal with all the fallout and now claimed more than 30 lives. we have jack joining us with the latest from brussels on that were the hunt goes on for accomplices in that tragedy. >> indeed. we have one man definitely hunted by the belgian police force here. we have a picture of him, and men at the airport and a black cat on a pale colored coat that was at the airport just before the attacks took race yesterday morning at around 8:00 a.m. local time. the prosecutor -- the belgian prosecutor has not confirmed it is a man we believe is called najim laachraoui who belgian media believe is 10 and the police are searching for an.

there's been race going on throughout the day. an early report he may 's explosive device didn't explode at the airport. it was supposedly the most explosive in the most dangerous. so there can be some that didn't explode and cause even more damage than what caused the there on yesterday morning. 11 people died in those explosions at the airport. neil: already paid thank you very much. i apologize for that delay. obviously, they're trying to get a handle on who else was involved. the major team at the airport, two brothers involved in that. obviously a lot of concern about that. obviously the boston attacks, family members could be involved in that case. growing indications that there was involved when two attackers.

rudy giuliani says no matter how you slice it, for the president to be in cuba to end the way that a baseball game doesn't look good. >> we have a solemn treaty with the country of belgium that an attack on belgian is an attack on the united states of america. >> you are the lawyer. i'm not. >> a grandson -- attack on france and belgium is an attack on the united states of america. neil: i wanted to ask about the state of new york. congressman, do you agree with what rudy giuliani said there, an attack on belgian, a nato member, is an attack on us? the president should respond. >> i absolutely agree 100%. it can be belgian this week. it can be us next time. if we don't stand shoulder to shoulder with our allies, we

might find ourselves alone what we have to actively don't want to have to act unilaterally. there's no question in my mind that we are at war. we have been a bore. it's very unconventional war. it's not like something we've ever read about or witnessed firsthand. this is a new type of battle but absolutely nowhere. neil: if you'll indulge me, taking questions. we will hold off. congressman, very sorry to do that to you. the reason i had a slight disagreement with rudy giuliani whether a terrorist attack is equivalent, the severity of that in the environment for so many attacks could be interpreted as such. but it's not like another country. we use that as the means by which we militarily get involved to the next level.

is that risky to do? >> we have been aboard this thread already. we have troops right now in harms way in iraq and syria afghanistan for a decade and a half. before fighting isis we're fighting al qaeda and their other threats out there. so as we are conducting military operations in supporting the iraqi counterterrorism service are having special ops try and take a isis command and control right now in the middle east. the fact of the matter is we are already at war, but unfortunately some of the soundbites and rhetoric that comes out of the obama administration wants us to ideally think of some alternate reality, which unfortunately we are reminded all too often is beyond the middle east and closer to home if not at home as we saw in san bernardino. neil: congressman, there's a lot

of talk about the president should be back at the outset. you agree at that point. the president of argentina and plans to visit wait a minute and what about our separate water on violence >> they would understand the circumstances. they can always go back to argentina at a number another time. there was an historic unity rally a week later we send john kerry over there with james taylor the president of the

united states sands is extremely powerful not just for setting a certain talent here in the united states with his own domestic policy, but the message abroad. neil: congressman, thank you very much. right there in argentina. let's listen. >> aggressively until it is removed from area and iraq and is finally destroyed. the world has to be united against terrorism and we can and we will defeat those who threaten the safety and security not only of our own people, the people all around the world. that is the top priority of ours and i know we share this belief. that is one reason we will work together, to do more to choke off terrorist financing mechanisms in place and keep our people safe when they travel.

they will lend support to argentina's counterterrorism efforts and also supported of president macri's decision to peacekeeping missions including by supporting u.n. efforts to protect vulnerable populations and the united states is very proud to support this effort through training and equipping. president macri has committed argentina to help address the searing refugee crisis and i hope that inspires other nations to do the same. i am very encouraged by his efforts to combat drug trafficking, reduce organized crime and to make argentina streets safer. these are all areas where we can be very affect of partners. the united states and argentina also share a commitment to protecting this planet for our children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren. president macri showed me pictures of his wonderful children, including the little one, who i understand was a

facebook sensation and i can see why. so we want to make sure she is just like my daughter's in future grandchildren, that they've got the beauty of argentina and the united states that has not been irreversibly impacted by climate change. president macri support was critical to its success. his commitment to sign the agreement and pursue ratification this year will be critical to bringing it into force. argentina at impressive targets for producing clean energy pick up an ambitious targets for reducing carbon emissions. and because we have experienced since i came into office tripling the amount of energy we get the wind and energy and the work that we've done on shale oil and gas. we are confident that we can be affect their partners and i

pledge to president macri that we will provide any technical assistance he thought would be useful in developing incredible resources and clean energy strategies that is interested in pursuing here in argentina. we also share a commitment to global health. we've agreed to work together which is obviously affect in so many in this hemisphere. we hope to support the broader health security agenda including working together with the nations because in a world that's interconnect debt, diseases that are developing remote alleges and africa or asia because of global travel, ultimately could be a significant threat to our populations. we can pretend that somehow it's just their problem. it is our problem as well. and we will work together to improve our capacity to detect and respond to and ultimately

prevent the threat of new diseases. it is also gratifying to see argentina champion our shared commitment to human rights. i hope we will work together to strengthen the organization of american states and the inter-american human rights system to promote civil liberties, independent judiciary is, government transparency and accountability throughout the hemisphere. i know this is an area of greater essays are president macri. and finally, after i leave, today i'll visit the metropolitan cathedral at the two of josé do not see another horrific bombing of the jewish community center almost 22 years ago. i told president macri that united states offers whatever help we can to finally hold his attackers accountable and we will, just to reiterate, do the exact same thing in going after those who carried out this terrible attacks in belgium.

i do recognize that this week marks the 40th anniversary of the military coup and tomorrow, to underscore our shared commitment to human rights, i'll visit a memorial to the dead man's that the military dictatorship and recognize argentina's historic and continuing efforts to make things right, to make sure that we acknowledge the incredible heroism and courage of those who stood up against these human rights violations and to prove this is more than a symbolic gesture on my part. as president macri indicated and opening up new documents from that. david previously declassified thousands of records from that era, but for the first time now will declassified military and intelligence records as well. on this anniversary and beyond. we are absolutely determined to do our part as argentina continues to heal and move forward as one nation.

and i hope this gesture also helps to rebuild trust that may have been lost between our two countries. that is a principal message that i have not only for argentina, but for the entire hemisphere. i came here from cuba. but the great emphasis on making sure that some of the ideologies come at the disputes of the past, that they are frank acknowledged, but that we also are able to look to the future and not just behind us. and that is why this visit for me is so personally important. it is also important because they have been a big fan of argentinian culture. when i was in college i let a lot of argentinian literature and i am proud to announce that i just tried by bay for the first time. because when i was in college i

would read these people and they were drinking lots day and i didn't know what it was. so i knew when i finally arrived in buenos aires i would try some images had summoned it was quite good. so i may take some home with me when i go back to the united states. i don't know what kind of import and export controls that may be violating. but on air force one i can usually do what i want. such intimate very much, mr. president. [applause] [speaking in spanish] >> translator: we will begin a planned press conference. >> good morning, mr. president.

welcome to argentina. will make my questions in spanish because i am not argentina and. [speaking in spanish] >> translator: and the united states and our president a bomb in particular what is the role you assign to the presidentmacri considering the serious situation brazil is going through and how to do the negotiation and the way they call them hear the vulture funds. thank you very much. [speaking in spanish] >> translator: so we have begun to look at ways to open up both agendas. this is a road that is now starting and i told president obama that we are exporting less than 1% of our aggregate industrial, which means that

there is a lot of room for growth as part of a path on which we must first consolidate and think about a broader free trade agreement. clearly, what we both feel is that we have enormous rules for joint work after many years of almost nonexistent relations. always just do creative work for the argentines and the americans. >> in my initial statement, we have been enormously impressed by the work that president macri has already done in his first 100 days. and we see good relations with all the countries in the hemisphere, but obviously, argentina historically as one of the most powerful, largest countries in the hemisphere needs to be a critical partner

with us in order for us to not only help our own people, but also to help promote prosperity, peace and opportunity in the region as a whole. and i am absolutely confident that given president macri's interest in transparency, accountability, economic reform here in argentina, that he is setting an example for other countries in the hemisphere. and his engagement and willingness to have frank and constructive relations and conversations with the world community on critical multilateral issues like climate change, i think promises to heighten argentina's influence on the world stage in but setting aside the g20. so i am saddened that i am only

going to have nine of them overlap. you know, he is at the beginning of his administration. i am coming to the end of mine. what we can do is to start on an effective path that i think will sustain itself into the future. trade is an example of an area where we have already organized a working group between our delegations. they are going to identify all the areas where currently there are barriers that impede progress in our trading relationship that we will systematically work through those. organizing an entire free-trade agreement may be at the end of the process. i think at the beginning right now there's a lot of underbrush, a lot of unnecessary trade very tense and commercial area tents that can be cleared away

administratively and that is some of the work that we intend to do right away. was there a second part of the question? so with respect to the bondholders, this is working its way through the court system and i note i said that macri has also initiated a proposal being considered by your parliament. i have to be careful not to comment on the issue from the nature of our legal system. these i typically applied that to remain impartial if there's a pending case i do not talk about it publicly. what i can say is that the constructive approach that president macri has taken i think has opened up the

possibility of a resolution and a resolution on this issue will stabilize argentina's financial relationship internationally in a way that can accelerate many of the other issues that are of great concern. to some degree, this is viewed as high finance, so ordinary people say why does this matter? but if you talk about foreign investment, if you talk about trade, all the things that ultimately matters to ordinary people because they produce jobs and they produce economic development and provide more revenue in order to reinvest in education or science and technology, that requires the kind of financial stability that is so important. i'm a coma i've been through this. when i came into office in 2008, the world financial system was

going down the toilet as we say. and we had to take a lot of effort can make difficult choices. they weren't always popular at the time. but because of the steps that we took, and our banks recovered faster than european banks, for example. our economy began to recover faster. we started reducing more jobs. so sometimes short-term pain and taking decisive action early is the right thing to do rather than putting it off until manana and you end up having a perpetual set of problems and you never restore the stability and trust necessary. >> the first question for the u.s. delegation will come from josh letterman with "the associated press." thank you, mr. speaker. you resisted calls and you said that her critics aren't offering

any better ideas. but the attacks keep happening. the brussels change anything for you and if not, would you like -- do you think americans should see more attacks as being inevitable and what would you say that says about the state of our debate on this when you have a major presidential candidate calling for surveillance of muslim american communities. you both noted that the u.s. has agreed to release more documents about the war. would you expect those documents will reveal about america's role in this painful chapter in your country's history? >> josh, i think it is important to recognize that this is my number one priority. i've got a lot of things on my plate, but my top priority is to defeat isil.

and two of them and made the scourge of this barbaric terrorism that's taking place around the world. we see high-profile attacks in europe, but they are also killing muslims throughout the middle east. people who are innocent, people who are guilty only of worshiping islam in a different way than this organization. they are poisoning the minds of young people everywhere. not just in europe, that the united states and people are looking on his website. there's no more important item on my agenda in going after them and defeating them. the issue is how we do it in an intelligent way. our approach has been to adjust

and see what works and what doesn't. what has been working as the airstrikes that were taken on the leadership, on their infrastructure, financial systems, what has been working his special operators partnering with iraqi security forces and going after after leadership that works in and disrupting the connection between their basis in rock and mosul. we were covered taken away from isil about 40% of the territory and leadership has been hunkered down. and we are going to continue to press on them until we have driven them out of their strongholds and until they are destroyed. while we are doing not, we are

also extraordinarily vigilant about preventing attacks on our homeland and working with allies to send attacks in places like europe. but as i said before, this is difficult work. it's not because we don't have the best and the brightest working on it. it is not because we are not taking the threat seriously. it is because it is challenging to find, identify very small groups of people who are willing to die themselves and can walk into a crowd. and my charge to my team is to find every strategy possible to successfully reduce the risk of such terrorist attacks, even as we go after their beating heart in places like iraq and syria.

and that's our strategy evolves and we see additional opportunities, we will go after it. but what we don't do and what we should not do is take approaches that are going to be counterproductive. so when i hear somebody say we should carpet on iraq or syria, and not only is that inhumane, not only is that contrary to our values, but that would likely be an extraordinary mechanism for isil to recruit more people willing to die and explode on this in an airport or in a metro station. that's not a smart strategy. as far as what some candidate. i think i've been very clear on this. one of the great strength

imparted the reason we're not seeing more attacks in the united states is we have been extraordinarily successful, patriotic, integrated muslim american community. they do not feel isolated. their children are our children's friends going to the same schools. they are our colleagues in our workplaces. they are our men and women in uniform, fighting for our freedom. and so common any approach that would single them out for target them for discrimination is not only wrong and un-american, but it also would be counterproductive because it would reduce the strength, the antibodies we have to resist

terrorism. as far as the notion of having surveillance of neighborhood where muslims are present, i just left the country that engages in that kind of neighborhood surveillance. the father of senator cruz escaped for america. the land of the free, the notion do would start down that slippery slope makes absolutely no sense. and it will not help us defeat isil good laugh when i make make on this. i understand when we see these attacks, our hearts bleed because we know that could be her children. that could be our family members or friends or coworkers who

travel to a place like brussels. and it scares the american people and it horrifies me. i've got two young daughters who are growing up a little too fast. i want them to have the freedom to move and travel around the world without the possibility of that baby killed. so i understand why this is the top priority of the american people and i want them to understand, this is my top priority as well. it's a top writer for national security team, top priority of our military, top priority of intelligence officers in our diplomat. but we are approaching this in a way that has a chance of working and it will work. we are not going to do things that are his simply because it

is political season. we are going to be steady, resolute and ultimately successful. >> excuse me, but i don't think it will help in any sense with the opinion about what we are going to fight. let's study the implementation and then we can have some comments. thank you. [speaking in spanish] >> we would like to ask you what you think as there was the role of the united states during the dictatorships and whether you think there should be some criticism on the part of the united states with regard to that role during the era of dictatorship. i would like to ask both presidents whether you have

discussed the crisis during your meeting. >> i have spent a lot of time both before i was president and since i've been president studying the history of u.s. v. and like the history any country's foreign policy, there are moments of great success and glory and there are moments that were counterproductive or contrary to what i believe america should stand for. and you know, i don't want to go through the list of every activity of the united states in latin america over the last hundred years. i suspect everybody here knows that history at least as well as

i do. what is true though is that in the 70s, the recognition of human rights diplomacy was as important as fighting communism or whatever our long-term objective was. that became much more central to the u.s. foreign policy in both democratic and republican administrations. that there was a growth and a maturation of how we approached our foreign policy relationships and so, if you look at how

administrations thought about other countries back in the 30s were the 60s then you compare it to how we would have a conversation in the oval office today and what we would think was appropriate but we think it's not appropriate has changed over time and i think it's changed in a positive way. and i think one of the great things about america and i said this in cuba is we actually engage in a lot of self-criticism. there is no shortage of self-criticism and united states, certainly no shortage of criticism of his president supports government for its foreign policy. issues that i work on worry and sometimes criticize from the left and the right at the same time, although for different reasons.

the one thing that i will say is true that everything we do today is designed to take into account transparency, it and to speak out on those issues when they don't feel they could force changes we are going to speak out about them. i made an historic trip to havana and i said the people of cuba have nothing to fear of may, but you should know what i really believe. i believe the is better than a one-party or one-person dictatorship. i believe in freedom of speech and freedom of assembly and the people who shouldn't be arbitrarily detained. and i say the same thing when i am in china or russia for some of our allies in a way they are

comfortable. it has become a habit and learned some of the lessons that we may not have fully learned at an i think warner's successful. in terms of brazil, we hope that brazil resolves its current political crisis in a way. the good news is, i think he pointed this out. their democracy is mature. structures are strong enough. this would resolve in a way that

allows brazil to ultimately prosper and be the significant world leader. for our own economies and world peace. >> that is what we discussed. we are clearly following this closely. for the brazilian people. the main strategic partner. we are convinced that her silk can come out of this process. we hope that this will be as soon as possible. what happened in brazil also has an impact of what happens in our own country. >> thank you, mr. president. president obama, in the wake of

the brussels attack, you obviously thought about whether to attend that game yesterday in cuba. you are catching some flak from some political critics at home. i am wondering, could you walk us through why you decided this was the correct course. what was that message? it seems to me that old in cuba and argentina, you are seeking to rule back some of the overreach. wondering, now that you are here, whether that is shaping your views on it intervention. president obama believes in normalizing relations will give the u.s. a lot more credibility and leverage around latin america. we you both commit to attending

the olympics in brazil the matter what happens? thank you. >> i addressed this issue a little bit at the baseball game when i was interviewed by espn. let me reiterate it. >> groups like isil cannot destroy us. they cannot defeat us. they are vicious killers and murderers who perverted one of the world great religions and their primary power, in addition to killing innocent lives is to strike fear in our societies. to disrupt our societies. so that the effect cascades from

an explosion or an attack by a semi automatic rifle. even as we are systematic and ruthless and focused, disrupting their networks, getting leaders, rolling out their operations, it is very important for us to not respond with fear. that is hard to do. we see the impact in the way of the attacks that they make. we deceive them in part by saying, you are not strong. you are weak. those that may be inspired by them to say, you will not change

our values of liberty and openness. the respect of all people. i mentioned at the baseball game, yesterday, one of my fondest moments of president was watching boston and respond after the boston marathon attack. they taught a lesson. they grieved. i was therefore the memorial. a few days later, folks were out. a few days later, people were in that baseball stadium. you know, singing the national anthem. they thought that they were saying what they felt about boston. boston strong.

how a terrorist attack would not change the basic spirit of that city. he spoke about what america is. that is how, that is how we will defeat these terrorists groups. in part because we're going after them, taking strikes against them. arresting them. cooperating with other countries. a lot of it will be to say, you do not have power over us. we are strong. our values are right. you offer nothing except for debt. and so, it is important for the u.s. president and the u.s. government, to be able to work

with people on board. creating things and creating jobs. trying to solve major problems like climate change and setting up changes for young people that will create the next new great invention or a scientific breakthrough that can cure diseases. we have to make sure that we lift up and stay focused on the things that are most important to us. we are on the right side. with respect to how it impacts the area, i think that it is apples and oranges.

when it comes to defending the united states or its allies and our core interest, i will not hesitate to use military force where necessary. how we do that is important. we do not just go ahead and blow something up just so that we can go back home and say we blew something up. that is not a foreign policy. that is not a military strategy. i do think that it is important for the president of the united states and the administration to think about what they are doing. thinking about the priorities of the american people. i can't tell you how i spend my time. how are we going to go after i sold. how do we bring peace to syria? we do not throw some military

action. making sure that it is effective. >> i was giving you my opinion on president obama's trip to cuba. >> it would be that greatest progress in american terms. to have been given to those that want to choose. he went without relinquishing any of these values that we embrace in the united states and argentina. the flag of freedom. not what they want to do in the future. >> it enables and speeds up the discussion. that is what we need for the cuban views.

wanting more freedom. i think that it is highly positive for the next few years. this relationship between the united states. >> that is out of the program. i am going. >> yes. so, facebook. people to suggest questions to ask both presidents.

from the province of boy knows eris. >> what was your dream when you got elected. were you able to realize it? >> well, you know, iran for office because i believed deeply in the american people and that our politics did not fully reflect all the values in the talent and goodness of the american people. i thought i may be able to align our government with our ideals. to make sure reaching out had opportunity. to make sure that if people get

sick, they can get healthier. make sure that we do not skim and eight on race or gender or disability or sexual orientation. that we are good stewards for our planet. that we have an economy so everyone benefits. i wrote down a list of things that i wanted to do. i keep it in my desk. i will not say that i've gotten 100% done, but we have gotten a lot done. it is indisputable that the economy is much stronger now than when i came into office. we have cut our fiscal deficits by two thirds. we have provided health insurance to 20 million people that do not have it.

reducing the acceleration of our carbon footprint. helping lead the way to gain a global agreement on climate change. on the international front. cuba is just one example of the work week. the deal that took away that threat, but also gave an opportunity to rejoin. the work we have done in afghanistan. now giving them the opportunity for them to secure their own future. work in from all places. now on the brink of a new era of democracy. i think our values, i think they have also been reflected in our foreign policy.

after seven and a half years in office, i have used this metaphor before. we are like a relay run. now we take the baton. sometimes only take the baton, we are behind in the race. we do not always treat the circumstances when we get the baton. did we advance the causes we care about? did our team gain ground? on that front, i believe that we have achieved that. we still have a lot of work to do here at there are a lot of people in america still looking for a lot of opportunity. i certainly have not been successful in getting two parties to work together

successfully. there are still major challenges. i so is still killing people. north korea still has a nuclear weapons program. middle east has not been achieved. you know, if i were satisfied now, i would be blind. i cannot say with confidence that the work we have done has made both america, and i think the world stronger and better. i feel pretty good about the fact that i can look back and say that i have operated with honesty and integrity. do not feel as if i said things i did not believe or acted in a way that would make me change.

that's, i think, counts for something as well. i said this before. i started dyeing my hair soon or so people would not realize how much i aged in the seven and a half years. i will just have to go with it. [laughter] >> the same questions. i am only just starting. i would like to say, the first few words of president obama. i deeply believe in my people. i know this country and i know what it is capable of doing. i think that we are all committed to building opportunities for all of us to

be able to develop and learn from one another. to heal. we need to put our future, our children, our grand children as the priority. build solutions that clearly need to be connected to the world beard isolated from the rest of the world is no future for argentina. that is what we are betting on. leaving a mark of peace, honesty and hard work. >> thank you very much. >> all right. for the better part of 15 minutes. you heard the president of the united states and argentina.

this is a dicey time. the president once again aggressions as to whether this trip, a day after cuba. at the baseball game. explaining why he is not back in washington. the president more or less saying, terrorists have won. they are setting the tune and the tone. it is a distant response to this. it has not really helped the cause. former u.s. spokesman. what did you make of that response. saying if i had rushed back, i would be dancing to their fiddle. what do you make of that? >> a poignant question and answer. we just had a russell's attack.

did anything change for you? president obama could not come up with a single thing that had changed. he basically said we will continue bombing and we will not do anything that shifts our judgment. sixty plus nations in this coalition. we are still not getting the targets right. he does go on to complain. it is no wonder we cannot find the targets. he is unwilling to send intelligence officers into syria to find the targets. that is why we are not hitting the targets. i think it is really poignant when he does not change his strategy. he says, no, nothing is different. then we see yesterday in cuba, him sitting at a baseball game. imagine if he told castro we

will change our plans. we will have a press conference. i need you to condemn the brussels bombing. you got a castro brother to condemn terrorism. he did not do that. he just yuck did up with derek jeter. this does not look like a serious ices commander in chief. >> indicating that one of the proselytizers was actually caught in turkey back in june and then deported to belgium. obviously, you see more worries and development. that is a failure on intelligence on many levels. what one of those reporters is trying to get at. >> i think it is a little bit more than a failure of intelligence. they actually told the belgians

that there was this individual we are sending back. it is more than just a failure of intelligence. it is a failure of following up. i think that it is a huge problem for europe. figuring out if they will pull out of that you. i think that this is a huge signal that the british are not having faith in the european system to keep britons protected. i think they have big problems in europe. >> think you very much. exchanging comments. john kerry. going to friday. formally express his condolences. we will have more after this. ♪

the e-class has 11 intelligent driver-assist systems. it recognizes pedestrians and alerts you. warns you about incoming cross-traffic. cameras and radar detect dangers you don't. and it can even stop by itself. so in this crash test, one thing's missing: a crash. the 2016 e-class. now receive up to a $3,000 spring bonus on the e350 sport sedan.

neil: welcome, everybody. i am neil cavuto. we are getting word out of turkey. one of the attackers was actually caught inurkey back in june. john kerry the sympathies. support to the belgian people. scheduled for friday. meanwhile, we're getting connections between what went down in brussels and what would down in paris just a few months earlier. >> that is right. a story that we are learning between police. serious links between the attacks in paris in the attacks in brussels. here is what we know.

the suspects in these two cases were members of the same cell linked to isis. the police have been upgrading multiple locations. they have found a bomb making fact or read. they found 33 pounds of explosives. this is called tat p. and unstable hydrogen peroxide that can explode. they found that in the home of one of the suspects. the same type used. in a suburb of russell's. the other thing going on today is a hearing for the fellow that was arrested only weeks ago in connection to the paris attacks. that has been delayed because of what is going on in the city there. the laying until probably tomorrow morning.

expected to be part of the group that conduct did these vomiting and brussels. the two brothers, dae, as it turns out, rented the apartment that was rated last week in the hunt. as i just mentioned. these folks tightly connected. living in a very tight area. yes, police have had a hard time keeping up with them. the turkey pm saying that one of the brussels attackers was caught in turkey in june and deported to belgium. neil: we will see what the belgium authorities have to say about that. >> i am wondering in these latest developments, two of the

attackers were brothers. the united states. similar to the brothers behind the boston terror attacks. do we know anything more about that? >> two brothers involved in the terrorist attacks. explaining how there was such a close network. seen as the last missing component to the terrorist attack. living 400 feet from his parents home. being protected i his network. also plotting with the other brothers in this attack. they are from the same neighborhood where the foreign minister of belgium said this is larger than we thought. more interconnected than we thought you'd he actually predicted last week that there would be more of that.

>> you often times here that there are family members involved. it does seem to be a consistent theme. and isis related network. >> related to radical islam. if you believe in something, it is sometimes your family. plotting and planning in that neighborhood. you need a lot of help. it is not shocking that these people were working altogether. >> i know that it is still early. do we know much more about that?

the story developing. any western european country. going through the process with them. putting some pieces. they do see a lot of jihad. they pride themselves on the fact that they are able to arrest because they think they can get more information from them. stuart: very good. thank you very, very much. not going back home or to brussels for that matter. he has things to do. caving into attacks. he would not be able to do his

job. former senator and democrat on that. what do you think of that argument? >> i understand the impulse. just as i understand, we need to get on with our own lives. airing on the side of showing more solidarity. i do not think the baseball visual is probably what they intended. >> it is water under the bridge. i am wondering what the president said. it does not look like it will change. you could talk about taking out isis elements in syria and

elsewhere. these attacks to keep happening. i'm almost beginning to wonder, it is too late to go after a concentration of isis elements in one country. they are now everywhere. what do we do if we are not changing the posture to address back? >> we have to address this on several levels. the homeland in iraq and syria. going back to belgium in such large numbers. they do not have the capability to follow. we have to reduce the capability. they are being more did. that is something that we will just have to understand. number two, a lot of this, for that, we have to have very

robust cooperation. we need to convince them and some in our own country. isis murderers and terrorists than for our own government. some of the cultures over there are a little rollup then. doing the kind of things that need to be done. our liberty is when someone is killed. that is the price we're paying right now. giving law enforcement the tools they need. >> you are right about the latter wine. indulge him right now, countered in paris. >> some concerns about the locality of doing so. do you think it changes with the

frequency of these attacks? i do not see that. >> it does change over time. doing what it needs to be done. a lack of willingness. >> 10 years in the united states senate. our government was not plotting to kill our citizens. isis is. we have to give our law enforcement and intelligence officials. honorable law abiding people. all the things that they do to stop these attacks before they happen. no moral equivalency. the things that we do to try to stop them.

they behead innocent people. they burn people alive. we have to get over this. treating them to a similar set of rules. what they need to put a stop to this. >> think you very much. neil: we want to update you. john kerry will be heading to brussels on friday. a unity rally cared as well as expressing sympathy for and with the belgium people. right outside the scene at the carnage right now. they are expressing their sympathy. flowers, memorabilia, anything that they can. it just seems to continue. ♪

with x1 from xfinity. neil: the last reported story on these attacks is how the global markets have been responding to them. you think about what happened after the 9/11 attacks. much more severe. they had a chance to respond. ours did not open for four days. the talk of a multi- month fair market. the fact of the matter is, these markets have been shrugging their collective shoulders. why is that. a little bit more than four points. what is going on? >> i think that it is kind of unfortunate that it is not.

we are getting kind of numb to these attacks. we are seeing them become more commonplace. you are positioning. that is exactly correct. and impact to the economy. to the markets. you are seeing bonds rally. there really has not been much change. >> my colleague and friend had an interesting read on that. that may change if we see a frequency. the last few months. six months. what happened again indulge him. the violence in much of the world. though more are we here and the closer those events are to each other, maybe that market cockiness goes away. what do you think?

i agree. i think that it keeps getting ramped up. maybe that is what does it. i will tell you what the other side of that is. what is happening to the markets here and worldwide. interest rates go down. bonds get bought. this market has loved it. it is loving what central banks are doing. as a rates fall, that helps stabilize the markets. benefiting from maybe some of these attacks. >> they always target transportation centers. they somehow succeed at doing that even in europe. i cannot imagine that would have a spillover dominant with those willing to get on and travel or go anywhere.

that could be something that spreads. >> economies are more connected globally there may ever have been. trade is so important. every speech about how important it is. trade is not happening. any kind of international disruption of trade or travel or any kind of exchange of ideas or goods or services. i think that that is maybe what the terrorists are trying to do. now, affecting the united states in so many different ways. >> all right. thank you very much. mark fields responding to the trump trade comments very soon. thank you very, very much. we are getting a sense now that donald trump, stuck at 35%, he raised to about half.

neil: if you are asking our coverage, you realize it went very late. counting all the delegates. >> a great deal about mr. mcshane. hello, serve. this is going to be close. that is my in-depth analysis. trump is at 739. kate sick is back at 143. a lot of people keep talking about winning 53%. 498. 500 delegates. crews shooting for a contested convention. you can still do it.

it is tough. shooting for a contested convention. everyone is starting to bottle out the remaining states. a lot of attention. >> crucial for both parties. >> yes, you are right. bernie sanders wanting to do well in a state like that. >> positive comments today. endorsing after easter. >> i don't know how much that stuff adders. we were supposed to be in this winner take all stage. we are not really. taking most stage. a huge fight and was confident and our own new york over congressional districts. we have a map that will be up in

april and early june. >> i always compare. delaware, maryland. it is important. we also have 27 congressional districts here. you may not win new york. you can target the congressional districts. >> what if you don't? if trump could get 95. there is a way. he could win all the delegates here in new york. that makes it a tough path for him to get to 1237. 1208. >> that is close. >> you get that close, it is yours. we do not want trump to win. >> those are the rules.

he could still win. he could work a deal. >> i read this. cobbling stuff together. >> 76 on the republican side. they both entered that. >> that is the point. half the delegates plus one. >> from our point of view. it will be really close. 1681 overall for hillary. >> there you have to wonder.

senator barack obama. >> he is not where obama was. that is possible. the republican race really, really close. donald trump and his limitations. well, the state of arizona, he did do better. about half the vote. he was lucky to get about 30% of the vote. beyond what connell in thy word chatting about. donald trump and whether he can get to that number.

the case with mitt romney just four years ago. they had enough of a lead to close the deal on the first ballot. as close as some of these folks were laying it out to connell. can he do that? are you confident that he can do that? i think he can, but he should not wait. >> ted cruz is on the phone with them. he tells us how great he is. not only unify the party through general election. in order to get back, he has to start trading. he has to appeal.

the -- do you think of the president's response just on that, presumably a jab at donald trump. >> well, we're dealing with a culture of hate and it is aimed at america, it is aimed at europe. it is aimed around the world. there is a worldwide, a global network, they're targeting civilians. we need to break it up. a lot of that is intelligence and information. we're still waiting for a plan from the president. the administration has not yet come forward with a plan. so there is a lot of anxiety in the country today. and i believe this 2016 election, a major point of the election is going to be national security because the job of the president and the job of a country is to protect its citizens, number one. so we're going to hear a lot of debate and discussions best ways to do it -- to be able to connect the dots, i understand. you understand what the president is saying clearly

about donald trump and this muslim thing, is he right on that and donald trump is wrong? >> i'm just doing to say the president won't even call those attackers the, what they are, radical islamist terrorists. he won't use that phrase. to come and attack a republican candidate for president, i think the president ought to come up with a plan that actually works. we have a worldwide network which is isis, started in a vacuum that the president created in iraq and in syria by not leaving a stay-behind force in iraq. he called them the jv team. and now we're in a situation where this has grown and the president continues to downplay it. he says they're on the run. they're not. they're on the rise. they have now metastasized. cancer has grown worldwide in nine difficult locations. neil: some of your colleagues have said, sir, mr. president, get back to washington. others have advocated go to brussels. what do you think of that? >> well, i think that the administration should have been there in paris, but we're not.

the president down plays that they can not destroy us. they can not but he fails to note the amount of anxiety that exists in the united states today because of the fear and concern about the potential attacks on u.s. soil and i don't think that people have great deal of confidence in the president's ability to protect us at home. that is why i think there is so much concern here but as well as in europe. whether the attack is in san bernanadino and in paris or in brussels, isis is after all of us and unless we can confront them on the ground where they have their territory in iraq and syria, as well as the places where the cancer has spread, and i'll tell you, these spread areas, they're much more sophisticated in terms of the communications and cooperation -- neil: i understand, sir, do you go as far as rudy giuliani, you attack, terrorists attack foreign country or capital, that is an act of war, that is the equivalent of a nation invading

a nation. and given our nato alliances we have to respond militarily? do you equate the two. >> i believe we do need to respond. we clearly are a member of the nato alliance and attacking -- neil: that is very different, right? what he is saying is, a terrorist act in a city is the equivalent after nation invading another nation. is it really? i understand it's awful but equating the two, that can be a very slippery and dangerous slope, couldn't it? >> i haven't heard what mayor giuliani had to say. isis is not being dealt with on level on the ground where we take out their strong hold, their center mass and areas they spread. you need intelligence to do that. you need information. you need a lot of different ways to get it. i believe the upcoming presidential election will be

about ways to get that information, ways to protect the homeland and ways to keep us safe. neil: senator barrasso, always a pleasure. thank you very much. >> thanks for having me. neil: ford's ceo mark fields took on the issue with our own jeff flock about the brussels attacks, the impact, politically, emotionally, economically. after this.

to pay a dividend and we think improvements we made since then will allow to us do that. >> on subject of the business, jobs elsewhere has become a big issue in this presidential campaign and i know you communicated with one of the presidential contenders on this topic. the notion that there would be a tariff on any vehicle, been to speech with mr. trump who has said, ford wants to take their jobs to mexico, that's fine but i'm going to charge them 35% for every vehicle they bring back into this country. he also says he will cut corporate taxes. is there a way to make that calculus work? is it a positive? >> a lot of hypotheticals in there what may or may not happen. overall first and foremost we're a multinational company. it is important we remain a competitive multinational company and leverage our manufacturing facilities around the world. at the same time we're very proud of what we do to contribute to economic development here in the united states. since 2011, you know, we've

>> yeah. and but you know, some of this involves having like a staff and apparatus. neil: he doesn't have that. >> that's what i hear from people that know him pretty well, that he just doesn't have that. because you remember -- neil: you have ted cruz busily working these delegation. >> remember, there will be a lot of horse trading. it takes a lot of staff to go in -- when you're 1236, to go in there on the second ballot. neil: needs a bobby kennedy working those delegations for his brother. >> or a guy like jim baker did for gw. these are guys that get it and they understand. neil: do you expect that trump doesn't have that. just relying on the fact that such goodwill and public momentum for him that he just rolls? >> i know people that are close to him. that say he doesn't have that. neil: is that right? >> guys he has on the ground, cory, as good as he has done, they're winning, you have to give him some credit and people he has, he brought in more people that is not enough of an infrastructure to do if he

doesn't get the 1237. neil: trump react -- paul ryan was not naming names but clearly talking about donald trump. >> right, right. neil: about the tone. this is the third time he made references to, either criticizing his tone at rallies without ever mentioning him. trump must be getting tired of that? >> you know, i don't, i don't know if he cares anymore. you know, i think he looks at paul ryan someone he left in the dust. that he has tire tracks over his head and he is winning. maybe to victors go the spoils. i will say this i don't know how you build up this batched will and not, and think you're going to win a general election. you need party behind you. need people agreeing with you. i will say this, i know it will sound funny, he won easily in arizona, a state that was made for him to win. and he still didn't get over 50% of the vote. that tells you something. neil: are you kidding me? >> 47% in a state a republican primary that, listen that is
