the unanimity of the 5 permanent members of the united nations security council is absolutely indispensable to sustain the non proliferation regime. if there are cracks in that area, then he's going to be very, very difficult for, for me as a guarantor of the integrity of the mpg to do my job in another area which is on your radar screen. ukraine, which you have visited many times to the $1022.00. there's been administer activity new. they've written in nuclear power plant. is this a major safety concern for you? what it is, in the sense that now we have talking, you're mentioning a nuclear power plant, which is within the gradient control territory. and under talking about separate the general development, which is, you know, you helped me by territory. so here that has been, and we have been repeating that nothing should be done that might affect the integrity and the safety of a new cap. our back to this case, it has to do mainly with the power lines that feed the they said, look up our station, which forest or made the ukrainian regulator to order a decrease in the capacity of that for

and the national security council. so the national security council has a major role in this. so we are talking about that i can't play you in the u. s. national security. we are talking about the main tool of the u. s. national security. and so what's happening now, what's happening is the trump administration of always the drain, judy, judy yates, and formulate a policy of i. so i, so they shoot me zoom in the u. s, which might be very destructive to deliberate age of b. u. s. big, socio economic and political, the dominance of the word. so we're talking about the polar system to now, what would you, would you not agree that for your after seeing the us as being dog good, by bloated and this, that it, it hadn't been called into question about the records that, that were there. and they needed somebody a sledge hammer to come in and do this. i'm totally agree with this because i totally believe that this would be charged by the congress members and by the us 8 percent of its adult of chaos. when you have people at the verge of the midnight having the mean don't come to the co

security council. we demanded require that we should have serious participation. one fixed that we from africa demand is for the united nations to embrace democracy in the security council by giving africa to permanent seats with vito power and institution that excludes 54 african countries . while allowing one nation to veto the decisions of the remaining 193 member states is unacceptable. the counsel is dysfunctional and democratic non inclusive, unaccountable, autocratic, and opaque. that's why russia is calling for real reforms, but moscow is not suggesting a new organization insisting that the framework already exists, but needs polishing, and ensuring everyone's voices are heard and respected. it's what we've heard from russian officials, time and time again, building a fair, multiple world based on the principles of equal an indivisible security. and together with this un security council reform, we will make the west understand that it is no longer capable of imposing its own rules on the whole world. for many centuries pumping out results from africa, asia, and latin america no longer capable of living at the expense

on the 12th of september of last year, the israeli national security council admitted to the knessetisrael was no longer issuing visas to employees of international humanitarian nongovernmental organizations. it's part of a broader effort to a newly commissioned work inoc e occupied palestinian territory and limit assistance to the population. but the occupying poweris is legally obliged to facilitate community and operations in gaza and in the west bank alike. so, mr. president, security council members, in the short term to address the urgent humanitarian needs and ensure a response in gaza we need the following. number one, full and unrestricted access and the ability to move people and supplies, including fuel, freely from north to south. secondly, we need security and protection for aid operations. authorities must intimate robust securityst arrangements to prott humanitarian aid from looting and violence. we must be allowed to collect aid from goddesses crossings and secure transportation options such as box trucks as the open trucks with a forced to use are routinely looted. m

you had on his reading national security council here that was called your ein and the propose it in 2004. and he's to quote god, as a concentration camp, we need to amex and major chunk of design. i did our and relocate philistines there . it didn't work either in 2019 seniors. visual affection said that they were actively looking for host countries to take god and refusing microns, and they were willing to even pay for the transport. explain it expensive, it didn't work either. so the ideas on implemented there is no willingness on the populations in side. there is also no hosting countries in the world that is increasingly hostile towards microns and refugees. now, why do you think that donald trump has made this proposal? i wish there are 3 numbers of reasons that can explain this. number one, it can be a distraction from drums, take interruption, words that are dismantling the us government at the moment. so he needed the jane or miss most done that would capture the entire medius of anti world's attention and distract from that number to it. it is a gift to anything, at least c

but of course, we can see from the united nations security council meeting that it was convened when any emergencies um, you know, sessions the law of a hush criticisms of the rollover one. the previous countries that have taken a more subtle approached to these issue of not come on the very strongly including the united kingdom, the united states, as we should very strong. do you know statements against that one? uh huh. yeah. okay. well, let me, let me, let me pick, let me pick it up points out with crystal, because the french and i was speaking to the french ambassador in new york. i'm just a couple of days ago about this. they all now proposing a draft resolution to the un security council, different from pass that to the un, pretty clear the pressure needs to be put on the wind. but when you speak to diplomats, the un security council guess which countries are the ones that don't want to name or wanda. the african countries, the you with the u. k and the e u at frost in particular have been fluids. they can and they said that they are really looking at aid. we've not seen sancti

the international community was not losing power, but this could then happen at the united nations security council resolutions uh, any other one united nation agency owner. uh, when you say for child whatever utopia and union, they go by union countries and specifically other competition that were i, c, c a to g. and they also had the kind of happen what is going on in augusta. i'm the i present in the, this kind of happened again in westmark, but who else is able to do or to stop this to happen again? a tom, i mean there's only one by then unless he claims he wanted to the something was president. that's not even today the price was send the by that was change his mind by and threats and you know, to, to the, some of the family smoke a doing that. so they feel free to continue to do whatever they want. we 1000 recognizing any at this pin, i believe we must be of the international organizations and with those that we've got and we know that brick and nothing, any kind of pressure coming from any come through over the world. and so i don't see. all right, certainly worrying to see how this is all u

the usaid is a positive direction from the president, the national security council and the last twoecades, it has not. it has gotten worse. we are going to do something about it. our preference was to build a two usaid and work from the top down, identify all our programs, all the programs we fund around the world, which ones make us safer, stronger and more prosperous, which ones align us with the foreign policy of the united states, and which are the ones we should be involved with? not only is it a good idea, we owe it to the american taxpayer. this is american taxpayer funds and we have an obligation to spend it wisely. in someways that money could be freed up to spend more money on the real priorities. by repurpose them. that was our hope. unfortunately, we had little cooperation. we didn't have that problem in the state department by the way,. we got good insights and that is why every single day we are issuing waivers on state department programs. on usaid unfortunately we didn't get the same level of cooperation. in fact we had individuals that was still trying to push payme

i can check with her friends at the national security council and get back to you on that. prime minister netanyahu will be here on tuesday, february 4, for a working meeting and visit with the president. i'm sure you will all be here. very excited to cover that visit. sure. daniel. reporter: back on the guantanamo bay, why does the president feel like that is the best location to make sure americans are safe from violent illegal migrant crime? karoline: the memorandum, the order he signed builds on his previous executive actions to secure the southern border and deport illegal criminals from the interior of our country. we have an issue with space in the interior, which is a big reason why congress needs to pass this reconciliation package as quickly as possible to ensure dhs and ice have the funding to detain these individuals that the administration is swiftly rounding up and deporting -- arresting and deporting illegal immigrant criminals. taxpayers are already funding it. the space is there. why not use it? the secretary of defense is working on that as we speak. repor

joining us is michael allen, former senior director at the national security council.the gaza strip would be turned over to the u.s. by israel at the conclusion of fighting. the palestinians would have already been settled in far safer and more beautiful communities with new and modern homes in the region. they would actually have a chance to be happy, safe and free. he also said no soldiers by the u.s. would be needed. he says at the end stability for the region would reign. what has been your take on this, michael? >> i thought this was on brand donald trump. being disruptive, staking out a position so that others have to react to him and then the negotiations begin. i think it was an acknowledgement from the president that the middle east has been mired in this so-called two-state solution unable to mike real progress for decades. he said i have a different vision. if jordan, egypt, and others don't like it what is your solution? they are criticizing the details of what president trump took forward. they enjoy the position they are in now, critiquing from afar, blam

i've seen, you know, the national security council agonize over these decisions and then what happens end up getting away. so it is good to see him actually making a quick decision to go after the threat. >> yes, sir. just want to correct real quick you're an air force figure general not army i think i read that so i don't to get yourself or me in trouble over that. i apologize. to both services -- but to move on with this, when we look at the africa theater a lot of people i say a lot of civilians don't know we're active there as a marine i know you fear to go to it is hot there and in north africa there's a lot going on there and a lot that our military and tell us about the threat in the afternoon theater. >> terrorists have tried to migrate there. one of the things they're trying to get away from is the ability to find them. it is also hard to get into some of those places in africa just because we don't have good access many times. you know, we face this in the b2 which i flew and so i think, you know, we're getting better at finding these places. and when we find them we're actu

to spend in alignment with the policies that they get from the secretary of state and the national security council and the president. it has been 20, 30 years to try to reformat,e when it refuses to reform or cooperate. and all them that congress go to you couldn'tba get answers to basic questions.. that is not going to continue. >> laura: for can continue pet president trump andt vice president vance, secretary rubio, elon musk, they all know regardless of what your priorities are and regardlessor what you want the government to do for you or any foreign country, right now america is on a collision course with dangerous, economic reality. they know that bold, sunconventional, and sometimes very painful measures are going to be needed to avoid the icebergs ahead. so, all those guys that trump administration, they will be sued. they will be maligned.ea theyte will be threatened and called dictators, but they are not going to waver. keep turning over the rocks and clearing the path to common sense, and the people will follow. and that is "the angle." joining me now stephen miller chie youf white hou

you would also serve as the principal advisor to the president, the national security council, and theomeland security council for all intelligence matters related to national security. and in this role, you would be responsible for over $100 billion between the national intelligence program and the military intelligence program. it is a position of great importance and significance to our national security created after one of our worst national security failures, 9/11. for that reason when congress established this position thanks in large part to our colleague and her friend susan collins, it mandated in law that any individual nominated for this position must have, and i quote, extensive national security expertise. now i appreciate you taking the time to meet with me and as i noted in that office before and after, i continue to have significant concerns about your judgment and your qualifications to meet the standards set by law. first as i noted previously, the dni was created in part to make sure we have appropriate intelligence prior to 9/11 and obviously we hadn't. but the mis
