acknowledged the lumbee as a people stated that the tribe had fully assimilated into the surrounding european communitiesuring the colonial era. the lumbee agreed to the language in that bill in 1956 as a compromise. in return, the federal government referring to them as a distinct people they promised they wouldn't seek formal federal recognition. i submit for the record a copy of the 1956 hearing on the lumbee bill where a representative of the lumbee said they would rather leave the county than september the federal recognition status. that is a strong statement of promise. this bill undermines that verbal promise. signed agreements must be adhered to. we should all agree to. nations fall apart when people walk back commitments to one another. we need to uphold agreements and treaties made two centuries ago by our ancestors and founding fathers. why do we uphold agreements and treaties? it's about trust. the corner stone and the lumbee must be held to standard. granting lumbee tribal recognition sets a dangerous precedent and going around this process opens the flood gates to receive special benefits

we have been tracking these people in europe with the use of syrian communities in several european countries countries. we have been trying to identify the whereabouts of some of these people who are part of the killing apparatus. and we have successfully brought some of them to trial in several jurisdictions. >> on that point, do you think you will ever get him? clearly the russians do want to maintain a presence in syria. would he be the sweetener because there are some people who think he does not have much value to putin. do you think there may be a case that could be built and one day he would stand trial? >> we all hope so. i think it is going to be of great symbolic value to put a closure to a lot of the pain and suffering that took place in syria. until then, we need to continue working, documenting these crimes because a lot of these crimes have not been rorded just yet. we have recorded so much but there is so much that is still out there to be documented, to be properly handled and evidence of which preserved and hopefully later on presented in a courtroom to achieve a justice tha

interesting article in i believe it was foreign policy magazine saying the trump team has communicated to europeanukraine that the u.s. will continue to fund ukraine so hong as nato allies meet a 5% threshold for spending, 5% of hair gdp contributed to defense. that is a change from trump who has said on the campaign trail and as recently as this month, i believe, that he intended to curtail u.s. support for ukraine. what do you make of the shift there? what's going on? >> yeah. i think the 5 percent figure is absolutely the right move. you know, that's basically where the nato alliance was during the cold war. we're not in a cold war. we're actually in a hot war with russia threatening ukraine and potentially threatening other front-line states in central and eastern europe. so it's imminently reasonable for our nato allies to pay 5% of their gdp to protect themselves, right? this is not spending money on, like, poetry readings or, like, decorating the foreign ministry. this is what states exist to do, is to protect your borders, protect your people from dictators like vladimir putin opinion. and

a defense community must accept and respect interests of all european countries, including russia. if nato cannot ensure that, then germany must consider the extent to which this alliance is still useful to us and finally get to the point of seeking to end the war. so the 2nd place a f, d is demanding more respect for germany from nato and the 1st place christian democrats are demanding that nato be better respected so to hardly contracting or abuse. and only one of them is going to come out on top in the election set for the end of february. so it's good to have a company here on us. the international will be back with plenty more news updates off of this short break. the lease of the russian states never as tight as one of the most sense community invest, knocking holes all sense and up the speed . the one else calls question about this, even though we will fan in the european union, the kremlin machine, the state on process to day and splits the ortiz food neck, keeping our video agency roughly all the band on youtube. the service was for the question, did you say a request, whi
