pompeo: i don'tsec. pompeo: want to spend much time talking about the intricacies of what the state department is doing. it is a rapidly evolving situation. i stay as current as i can on what our support team is doing for our team. state department officials in every american should know we will do everything we can to take care of our team. we have had a couple of employees, you can count them on hand, who have positive tested. we have handled those exactly the way we are asking every american to respond to those wherever they find themselves in the world. unmindful, as we work to make sure we are protecting our team, the state department team, we have a responsibility to help american citizens wherever they are. it is not just about our officers serving in these places, but making sure that we are doing the right thing by the american people. you see our travel advisor is as soon as they go out, trying to make sure they are in step with the latest data sets we have in each country, in every province, t

pompeo: thank you, mr. president. before i address the efforts we have been engaged in, pushing back against the chinese virus, i want to assure the people that the state department, the entire national security team is staying focused on other diplomatic challenges around the world, including reducing risk to america from afghanistan, and counterterrorism efforts against isis. they remain a priority for our team. a number one priority remains of the protection of the american people. the president and our team are focused on. -- on it. i want to think my team that has been working long hours to take care of americans who are stuck in places around the world. i will talk about that in a minute. x withve all seen dr. bir me. i want to give a shout out to the team here and around the world that are working overtime to help us push back against this pandemic. under the leadership this week, we have taken two important steps. as the president announced on wednesday, the u.s. and canada jointly agreed to restrict nonessent

secretary pompeo: lots of things.want to make sure the american people go to trusted sources for their information, but we have made clear in we -- made clear and we have spoken to those countries directly that they need to knock it off, that we do not approve of it and there are other things we are engaged in to make sure accurate information is out there. this idea of transparency and accurate information is very important, it is how we protect the american people from something like this ever happening again. >> you encourage the american people to go to trusted sources of information. does it undermine you when the president stands up here and calls us untrustworthy? sec. pompeo: next question. >> in terms of americans who find themselves stranded in places where there are no longer flights to get back to the united states, what efforts are being made to help them? secretary pompeo: i appreciate that question. we are doing lots of things. morocco, i think we had the first three flights out of morocco. and we are t

secretary pompeo: i think i answered that question. we re-evaluate all our policies, including our sanctions policy, constantly f we conclude it's in the best interest of the american people to alter any of those policies, we'll do that. i have to reiterate, the goods that are needed for each of these countries to resolve the coronavirus problem in their nations are not sanctioned. they were not sanctioned. they are not sanctioned. and they will not be sanctioned. indeed, the united states has gone beyond that. it's not just that they are not sanctioned, it's not simply they are prohibited. but the united states, the american people, are working diligently in each of these countries you are thinking of as sanctioned nations to try and assist getting humanitarian assistance into those countries, not only from the united states but to help other countries deliver that humanitarian assistance to the people of those nations. this policy is deeply consistent with the finest traditions of the united states of america. your first question was

pompeo: as for iran, that is an excellent question. i don't talk about our effort to get americans home, what we are actually doing. but the family members of those that are being held, and that is where all americans being wrongfully detained should now, we are working on this every day. we are aware of what iran has een doing with the prisoners given the outbreak they have -- outbreak of the wuhan virus there. we are aware that they are thinking about whether to release them or not. everyone should know that we are working and communicating with them and we are urging them as we have done publicly many times to release every american that it -- that is being wrongfully held their. -- held there. as a humanitarian gesture given the risk that is posed to them, given what is taking place inside of iran. we use for purposes of how many people have been impacted on iran, we have used the global data set. it is a big number. it is a real concern. i spoke with the head of the world health organization this morning, where we talked about ira

(ellen pompeo) is my--yeah, my, my 48 years, soon to be 49. the most or what i pay the most attention to. my skin feels firmer and tighter. it appears tighter. that's what's so exciting is sharing what i've benefited from dr. sebagh with you, with my sisters, with my friends, with my mother, with women everywhere. i'm really excited to talk about dr. sebagh, because you know i love doctors. so, you've known dr. sebagh for over 20 years? yeah, i first met him when i was 28 years old on the advice of a makeup artist. and he greeted me at the door himself, super charming in that french way. and he did this treatment on my skin that i had never had before, and it was a melon-based antioxidant vitamin treatment. and i didn't even realize that my skin was dull until after the treatment. i have to say, like afterwards, it was like my skin was just glowing. i really do have to thank dr. sebagh d hiincredible formulations. it was like my skin was just glowing. they not only protect your skin, but they also restore the appearance and the glow of your sk

introduced by susan pompeo. >> good afternoon. i have said to sue before he came out on stage just about my bad tennis game and my back cancel i love her, she's always looked up for me and i'm pretty sure mike is back stage, a little bit nervous because he thinks it's a good idea for me to introduce him until the moment arrives and then he gets a little nervous but hopefully he will survive. i thought that you all probably know a little bit about mike given who you are, but i'll run through his resume really fast and then tell you the insider he things that i think i feel obligated to share since i'm his wife. so fast on the resume: he was a fast study at two of the world's finest academic institutions. he did well, it was a good student. he studied on friday night. i know. he served five years active duty in the united states army. his first assignment was leading troops to the east german border and to this day might endorse tanks and i think that he would tell you his favorite job probably until death is being a soldier. [appla

pompeo says the u.s. is trying to facilitate those talks. >>> meanwhile, pompeo criticized the international criminal courts' decision to investigate alleged war c crimes by the taliban and u.s. military in afghanistan. he described it as a truly breathtaking action by an unaccountable political institution masquerading as a legal body. he says it's reckless as it comes just days after the peace deal was signed. >>> the new coronavirus outbreak is also casting a shadow over sumo. the japan sumo association announced that the upcoming spring tournament in osaka will be he be held without a live audience, but even without a crowd there will be plenty of excitement. rising star shodai is hoping for more success this time around. nhk world's hiro morita asked him about his aspirations. >> reporter: normally a grand sue sumo tournament features a packed house cheering for their favorite wrestlers. sumo wrestlers had been looking forward to the event, but unfortunately, this will be the first sumo event held in

is mike pompeo's concern genuine and legitimate?f huawei tentacles get into the uk system, that jeopardizes u.s. assets and national security. >> it certainly does. the uk is trying to make this argument that there are core and non-core parts of the 5g network in saying it's okay for huawei to be in the non-core. i don't think you can make that distinction. if huawei is in 5g, they will be able to take information and that is completely unacceptable. it's important for the u.s. to decrease our intelligence sharing with the uk if they go forward with this misguided decision. >> what about the other comment by secretary of state mike pompeo, that china has been interfering in our ability to tackle the coronavirus because they have not been honest about their numbers, i think they may have been the arm of the world health organization which as i said earlier is largely incompetent, what do you think. >> the secretary of state is absolutely right, china has been imposing extraordinary information controls on coronavirus and this has inh

pompeo. mr. secretary, without objection, your complete testimony will be included in the record. i'll ask you to please summarize your statement in five minutes. and because we're so tight on time, i'm going to have to be very quick with the gavel. so i know recognize you for five minutes. >> thank you. thank you, chairman engel, thank you ranking member mccaul. i'll do this in less than five minutes. i do have a statement that i'll submit for the record. i'm back from a trip where i traveled to saudi arabia and oman. the central topic of each of the discussions was what we're talking about here today, the threat posed by the islamic republic of iran. some basic facts, iran is the world's number one state sponsor of terror and the world's largest state sponsor of anti-semitism. wanting to wipe israel off the face of the earth. you just have to listen to them. iran and its proxies are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of americans in iraq including an american contractor who was killed o

pompeo, i've got my time back.to use your words further on in the interview, i guess you think this is funny, she asked you, told you that iran had admitted that they'd removed all limits on their centrifuge program and you said in effect, well, he's blustering. frankly, mr. pompeo, i agree blustering is dangerous especially when it comes to nuclear weapons development, but today you're just blustering, this is not a plan, this is not an acceptable substitute for a plan and we're just not going to allow that and i yield back. >> the gentle woman's time expired. >> mr. chairman, this is exhausting, this multi-media dog and pony show that's being put on and nobody thinks the secretary of state thinks this is humorous. we can have a moment of levity without trying to get a youtube moment out of it or without, you know, being upset and feigning anger so that you can go get a tv hit tonight on a cable station and mr. secretary, i've got to-- you were on-- you understand this committee. i fought like hell to get a waiver

i will start by asking secretary of state pompeo to speak. he's been doing a fantastic job and doing the other more normal jobs of a great secretary of state, but he got tied into this like everybody else and he's been doing a fantastic job. mike, please. >> thank you, mr. president. before i address the efforts that we've been engaged in, i want to asurety american people that as president trump just said your entire national security team is staying focused on the diplomatic activities including afghanistan holding them accountable and our counter terrorism efforts remain a priemplet the number one priority remains the protection of the american people. the president and our team are very focused op it. we'll take this moment to thank the team who's working all around the world to take care of americans. i'll talk about that more in just a minute. you've all seen dr. birx. and they're working overtime to help us push back against this pandemic. under the president's leadership we've taken two steps, first, the united states and canada joint

first is for secretary pompeo. we learned the cdc picked up some sort of virus happening, coronavirus in wuhan as early as september, when did the cdc starts letting other agencies there were something in china happening and bhwhen did the whe government approach start to happen? >> i will let the cdc or dr. fauci. >> we were alerted by dr. redfield with chinese colleagues on january 3rd, there may have been cases in the december, not that we were alerted in december. >> there has been discussions of china and what they knew and when they know it. we need to know immediately. the world is entitled to know. the chinese government was the first to know of this risk to the world. that puts a special obligation to our data, this is not about retribution, we are in a live exercise here to get this right. we need to make sure that everyone today teven today the data sets are available and made it available to the whole world. it is an imperative to keep the people safe. we talked about the absence of data sets and not be

pompeo, any misinformation, anyt misinformation is bad. a pattern of misinformation undermines our entire system. crowwhen the president lied abot the size of his inaugural crowd, it wasasma embarrassing. it was hard to believe when he falsified a hurricane weather map. it was disgraceful when he toldd the american people that iranian bombs injured no one when 110 soldiers were face seriously injured and traumatic brain injuries aren't just headaches. ronavi the pbut now, now we facs coronavirus and the president tells us that a vaccine isthat a almost ready and it isn't. and then, and then he tells us that warm weathere c will miraculously take care of this, take care of everything and it won't. press s doesn't just impactup te president's supporters at his rallies, and it doesn't just impact democrats voting in the presidential primaries, this everyone in america and more important than politics, mr. secretary. the administration must dook better. i yield back. >> >> okay.y. >> thank you, mr. chairman. >> mr. secretary, thank you for bei

the first to secretary pompeo. the news hour has learned the cdc picked up some sort of virus happening in wuhan, the coronavirus, happening in wuhan as early as december. when did the cdc start letting other agencies know there was something in china happening, that this coronavirus was happening? when did the whole government approach start to happen? >> i will let the cdc -- do you want to talk to that? >> so we were alerted by some discussions that dr. redfield, the director of the cdc, had with chinese colleagues on january 3rd. it's since been known that there may have been cases in december. not that we were alerted in december. >> the other question i have for you -- >> we'll do it in a second. >> one more thing. there's been some discussion about china and what they knew and when they knew it, and i've been very critical. we need to know immediately, the world is entitled to know the chinese government was the first to know of this risk to the world and that puts a special obligation to make sure that data

charles: secretary of state mike pompeo firing back at the haig after the u.s.itary becomes the center after war crimes investigation along with the taliban after violence in afghanistan. this after tentative peace deal was entered into but the area sees violence. we have secretary pompeo, he was livid, absolutely, really offended. what exactly is going on here? >> so you should know that the secretary used the words renegade and unlawful when describing the icc. it has the words court in the title. we do not think that is any sort of court or judicial mechanism that of course americans are used to in the united states. these are at best, a bunch of political actors. this is something that the government of afghanistan did not want. this is something that the united states did not want. it is something of course, we are not a part, we are not a party to the icc. and this is just a multilateral organization that is completely out of control, has no accountability and the american people should know that secretary of state mike pompeo and president donald trump wi

and we are continuing our conversation with secretary of state mike pompeo who is just back in the u.s. after signing a deal with the afghanistan in doha. you are the first cabinet official to ever meet with a member of the taliban. i think you met with one of the founding members of the taliban involved. >> i met with a senior negotiator yesterday, yes. >> brennan: you called them terrorists in the pasill cnsidem terrorists? >> they have an enormous amount of american blood on their hands. >> brennan: and in a partnership with al qaeda. >> the gentleman i met with agreed they would break that relationship and work alongside of us to destroy, deny resources to, and have al qaeda depart from that place. >> brennan: and you trust that? >> don't trust anything. we're going to deliver. it's about actions. the agreement set out the conditions, it set out the space. but, no, this deal doesn't depend upon trusting anyone. it has a deep, complex, well-thought-out, multimonth negotiated verification complex and mechanism by which we can observe and hold every member of the agreement accountable

. >> reporter: secretary of state mike pompeo was asked about this during today's white house coronavirus briefing. >> we're urging individuals when they can't back on their own, they ought to try to do that. but we are -- we have a team at the state department. the repatriation task force. >> reporter: but the zepedas say there are no commercial flights available till may, when u.s. carriers are expected to resume service. >> there are no flights. i tried this airline. no luck. i tried this airline, no luck. >> reporter: the government has instituted stricter stay at home rules. but there is one bright spot. each night residents go out onto their balconies and applaud the work of medical workers in this crisis. leaving most parts of latin america right now is difficult. >> i arrived on february 27th. already this woman lives in gilroy. she's stranded in guatemala. she reached out to south bay congress member zoe lofgren's office. >> today the aide emailed me and said there was a charter flight leaving guatemala tomorrow. >> reporter: now, since that white house briefing that included com

mike pompeo and vice president pence delivered some today, and they may wrap, particularly pompeo, may wrap those facts in wrappers they think are politically palatable to the president but they did offer facts and advice and mike pompeo detailed what the new border action will be. these are things americans want and need to hear from their government officials and i actually think it is a very good thing that the administration is doing these briefings every day. yes, they do run off the rails, but they are a way to provide information to americans if real time and they give us an opportunity to hold our officials accountable. >> and let's review some of the aspects of these changes because, first of all, they've raised the travel alert to the highest level, to level four. so do not travel overseas. if you are overseas, come back as soon as you can, if you can. they did cut off flights through mexico, european flights to mexico, that have come back. so the options for getting back commercially are becoming few and far between. we know of hundreds of people trapped in peru. the embassy
