speech to list what he views as the achievements of his administration he took the opportunity to praise the deals he struck but neglected to mention most of the agreement see broke. there is never been an administration and i'm very proud of this that's done more than the trumpet ministration in the first two years of office we made a deal with mexico we made a deal with canada we made that deal with south korea and then you look at north korea we're doing really well we moved our embassy to jerusalem in israel i promised it and i did it one of the broken records that wasn't mentioned it was the decision by the united states and israel to leave the un's cultural heritage organization of two years a bit to wrangling washington announced its intention to leave school in october accusing the agency of an t. israel bias now that moves come into force. on the twelfth of october two thousand and seventeen the department of state notified us co-directed general it mean

a bulk of the us decision to withdraw from their goodness nation and to seek to establish a permanent observer mission to unesco this decision was not taken lightly and reflects his concerns with the mountaineer being the need for fundamental reform and they're going to say sion and convening anti israel liason. now at this point that we can review that in twenty seventeen there was outcry from the united states and israel when unesco designated a hebron the city in the west bank designated as a world historical site now there is a contested area in the center of that city to muslims it's the ibrahimi mosque to jews it's the cave of patriarchs and at that point we saw some loud outcry from the united states and from israel now it's important to note that this isn't the first time that we've heard accusations of a pro palestinian bias from the usa and from israel and twenty eleven when the nasco body officially recognized
2:09 pm
a state of palestine at that point the usa and israel both stopped paying dues to unesco they were then stripped of their voting rights in two thousand and thirteen after having not paid their dues so at this point we see the united states carrying out a policy that its long carried out which is when it doesn't like certain international accords and agreements or international bodies it simply withdraw let's review the united states we withdraw from the optional protocol in dispute resolution to the vienna convention on diplomatic relations the united states is officially withdrawing from the un human rights council we will not cooperate with the i.c.c. we will provide no assistance to the i.c.c. baseless politicize claims are brought against us if a critical body is an institution unjust prosecution by this illegitimate court the council ceases to be. are they have its name we will commence a review of all international agreements that may still expose the united states to

purported binding jurisdiction dispute resolution in the international court of justice so the united states continues to withdraw from international bodies and international agreements in response to decisions it does not approve of what a former us on busta peter galbraith believes america's withdrawal from international agreements and organizations will eventually be reversed says. so this this is entirely political step you know anyone has pointed out that we already have that is that so many of these institutions the united nations the international court of justice were ones that were created a human rights were created by the united states the united states to believe. and get now we withdraw but also this constant from a very sized ministration or very extreme one one i have to point out that lost the election by three million votes and based on the midterm results is not likely to
2:11 pm
be around it after twenty twenty and so very likely these decisions will then be reversed so my advice to the rest of the world is take a deep breath and america will be back. in france president mccrone used his new year's speech to hit out of the extremist elements in his country. winners of all see it we have perience great division and anger broke out to anger against injustices against the course of a sometimes in comprehensible globalization against an administrative system that's become too complex and lacking in empathy there was also anger against profound changes that call into question our society's identity and direction this anger has shown me one thing no matter how excessive or overflowing it is we will not quit. trans message didn't go down well with opposition leaders who called him an imposter and accused him of being out of touch with the french people its origins
