she's nikki giovanni. this is overheard. (applause) - [interviewer] let's be honest. is this about the ability to learn or is this about the experience of not having been taught properly? and how have you avoided what has befallen other nations in africa and ... to say that he's made his own bed but you caused him to sleep in it. you know, you saw a problem and over time took it on ... let's start with the sizzle before we get to the steak. are you gonna run for president? i think i just got an f from you actually. i think i just got an f from you actually. - nikki giovanni, welcome. - thank you, i'm glad to be here. - very nice to be with you. so i have a big existential question for you to begin. why poetry? there are a lot of forms of expression. a lot of people who choose to commit words to paper or to somehow live in the realm of art or expression. they can go a lot of different routes, but why is poetry the thing that you settled on all those years ago? - probably because i'm stupid and couldn't figure out how to ... you know i was laughing. i have a dear friend

security council let's take a look at what nikki haley has said in the past. oh my promise to count how many times the u.s. envoy would mention russia during his state but i counted is twenty two russian russia russia russia russia trusted russian russians russia can russia russian russian russians and russian russians the russian the russian russian russian and the russians russia who just don't do political purposes only and not house of caravans with. now the purpose of the u.n. security council the fifteen member body that leaves the united nations is supposed to be to carry out the mission of the united nations but as we have seen it has recently become a forum for certain countries to criticize other countries now everyone in the u.n. security council seems to be in full agreement that the lives of civilians in eastern guta should be protected however there are some pretty strong disagreements about how that should be carried out and how and who is responsible for the situation there and we've heard some rather extreme rhetoric in the fifteen member body

well we did hear nikki haley on the floor of the u.n. security council using the language that could be interpreted as saying that the usa has the right to attack the syrian government now the meeting was convened for the purpose of discussing the plight of civilians in eastern guta and the efforts to get them out of harm's way and take care of civilians and make sure that people are protected however the minute the meeting pretty soon turned into a forum as we heard nikki haley get up an essential to make some very serious accusations against the governments of iran russia and the syrian government she accused those governments of actually conducting chlorine attacks in the last sixteen days of course then we heard a response from the russian ambassador saying that this was simply a decision from ation campaign this is what we heard the exchange with this is nikki haley followed by the russian envoy to the united nations security council. and in the past sixteen days there have been three separate allegations of chlorine gas attacks thi

laur nikki haley speaking there. earlier i spoke with the bbc's nick bryant from the united nations. very tough words from the u.n. ambassad to the united nations, tougher than her boss in the white house. what has been the reaction from russia's ambassador? nick: what we heard from nikki haley wathe first time a trump administration official has explicitly blamed moscow for this attack. earlier in the week, former secretary of state rex tillerson said it was likely russia was involved. na trump said he probably agrees with the british finding but hasn't quite concluded yet that russia was to blame. nikki haley did say that, and she said that russia's crime s to be met with immediate and concrete security council and the international community, because if they didn't do something here, then salisbury wouldn't be the last time we saw a chemical ldattack. it cappen in new york, she said. the russian ambassador was very angry that this meeting was even held. the british called this emergency session. the russians tried

nikki haley.e president. >> the world is watching and the messages they're sending out. it is not just the american public. if the united states isn't putting that tough foot forward, what's to keep them from misbehaving elsewhere? >> do you think that it is possible he was just not adequately briefed yesterday and that he meant to be delivering a more strong statement? or do you see it more as a piece of, he's reluck toonlt criticize putin? >> it's possible. it is more consistent with his past statements to be a little waffly on and it leave himself room. it is not just about condemning and comments. bits action taken. and other countries in the world, europe other, parts of the world are not going to take action on russia unless the united states does. and there's no real path that looks like we are going to. so whether it is in relation to this. the rest of the world is halted and i think that's a problem. >> and there is a dispute between the house intelligence committee and the senate intelli

nikki haley said that.aid russia's crime had to be met with immediate and concrete measures from the security council and the international community, because if they did not do something here then salisbury would not be the last time we saw a chemical attack, it could happen in new york, she said. the russian ambassador was very angry that this meeting was even held, the british clubbers emergency sessions, the russians tried to hold to do beforehand with procedural wrangling, they failed. the russian ambassador said it should not been before the security council and mayday roger —— rather bizarre and trivialising observation that we needed sherlock holmes to solve the case. can the un security council do any thing given that russia has a veto and can block any concrete action? it is interesting nikki haley setback, because like everybody else in the security council she would know that russia would veto any move to take the concrete measures she proposed. in calling this meeting the british have much more

nikki haley at the u.n., steve mnuchin. it never seems that president trump is the one coming out and directly holding russia accountable. i was wondering if your guest putiny comment regarding is a former kgb agent. we know the kgb's reputation for recording the five-star hotels. the own them in moscow. i was wondering, if he could make a connection between the fact that this is a way that would not rates. president trump has never come up directly taking on the russians. thank you for taking my call. i would say, i cannot speak to president trump's own behavior. what i can say is the administration itself, mainly the pure cats -- mainly the bureaucrats have taken a pretty hard stance of russia. when you look at the nuclear posture review, the national security strategy, all of those things reflect a more competitive view of russia and one that betrays that is not the serial role. that is a space where large parts of the government are taking the actions they need to take. virginia.andria, good morning. yes, i am a veteran

nikki haley did come out very strong against russia yesterday. rex tillerson, you know, over the weekend, came out very strong against russia. the president himself, even though there has been a paper statement from the white house, the president himself, though, has not made a strong statement about what is happening between russia and the uk. does it need to come from his mouth or to what extent does it matter if it comes from his mouth? >> i would like to see him make a strong statement about this russian issue, the way nikki haley did yesterday. i suspect that was first step in a big u.s. government response to this. i hope the president does address it. i think regarding rex tillerson and your national security apparatus as it relates to the state department, i supported getting rid of rex tillerson for no other reason there can be no daylight between the president and the secretary of state as has been pointed out. when the sent of state speaks, the world must know he speaks for the president, that he clearly had broken down with tillerson,

ambassador nikki haley essentially used the language often used to justify u.s. military intervention saying that the usa essentially reserves the right to attack the syrian government now the meeting was convened to discuss the situation in eastern guta this is a rebel held on play where there is fighting taking place now when nikki haley got up to speak rather than simply touching on the situation and the plight of civilians and efforts to make sure that civilians are not hurt she actually chose to make a barrage of allegations against russia iran and syria and in her remarks she went as far as saying that the three countries were actually responsible for some chlorine attacks now that we heard a response from the russian ambassador who said this is simply a decision from ation campaign in the past sixteen days there have been three separate allegations of chlorine gas attacks this is no ceasefire this is the assad regime iran and russia continuing to wage war against their political opponents are a constant when you want to build up and we understand that the

contrast that with a statement that came out from nikki haley who had this to say. russia has now used a chemical weapon within the borders of one of our enclosesest allies. here in new york, russia uses the united nations as a safe haven for dangerous activities within our own borders.

then you just heard nikki haley. what did you think? >> i think they did what they are supposed to do, which is -- this is kind of the pattern that has existed, brooke, for a while. forget about what the president said for a second. the structural people, the ni can k can ki haleys, secretary of defense, et cetera, they usually say things that comport with usual u.s. policy. and what the united states would normally do under an extraordinary circumstance like this is say exactly, number one, absolute solidarity with our ally, the uk. russia carried it out. in essence what they're saying is that special relationship continues. then she goes on. i think is broadening this now to really talk about chemical weapons in general. she's accusing russia not only of using chemical weapons in this particular case, the nerve agent, but also in syria, in saying this is a more serious problem that could spread. we want to have some accountable for what russia is doing with its chemical weapons. knowing, of course, russia is a member of the security c

ambassador nikki haley praising the response. >> when do you something unacceptable you pay the price. what the international community wants to see is russia steps up and acts like everyone else in the international community. we take no joy in having to do this but we're not going to roll over and let them get away with

ambassador nikki haley talked about how russians negotiated down to the. to the period in commas in the resolution calling for a ceasefire there's a loophole in it for terrorist groups that the government is allowed to continue fighting against terrorist groups and that's the rationale that they've put forward for continuing their bombardments in eastern guta this new resolution according to nikki haley calls for a cease fire immediately to take place as soon as it is voted on without any terrorism loopholes and she had bit of a threat for syria and the russians have a listen to what she had to say we support the united nations political process that seeks to end the war in syria. but we also warn any nation that is determined to impose its will through chemical attacks and any human suffering most especially the outlaw syrian regime the united states remains prepared to act if we must it is not the path we prefer but it is a path we have demonstrated we will take and we are prepared to take it again so robust rhetoric from u.s. ambassador nikki haley sayi

nikki haley has done that. to have to keep taking it to the russians, but they keep giving us so many reasons to do so. now before the world body, nikki haley has condemned the russians. it will be fascinating to find out whether the president of the united states comes to the microphone to condemn the russians as well. you heard nikki haley saying they're going to use nerve agents on someone in great britain. they can do it here, too. the widespread thinking the russians are poking at us. our own congress has said there should be sanctions on the russians and the white house has not put them in place. the widespread question across washington, republican and democrat has been, why? to that there's been no answer. so will the president condemn the russians? will the president put sanctions in place? what will happen? we shall see. the news continues after this. >> tech: at safelite autoglass we know that when you're spending time with the grandkids... ♪ music >> tech: ...every minute counts. and you don't have

ambassador to the united nations nikki haley lambasted moscow for how it's handled syrian cease fire negotiations at the u.n. if you watched closely during the negotiations we could see our russian friends constantly leaving the room to confirm with their syrian counterparts. the possibilities for what was going on are only two. either russia was informing their syrian colleagues about the content of the negotiations or russia was taking directions from the syrian colleagues about the content of the negotiations when the fifteen member body that leaves the united nations convened we heard from a u.s. ambassador to nikki haley she excuse russia of deception hypocrisy and brutality but from there her remarks took a rather interesting turn she went off on kind of a tangent in her remarks referring to what she said was diplomats leaving the room to call the syrian regime now the russian ambassador to the united nations and in benghazi he took to the floor and responded to the accusations from nikki haley with some rather clear facts about what's taking place on the ground in eastern guta
