comments today outline in brief form the overarching strategy of the united states towards the russian federation. the foundation for this strategy is provided by three documents, as directed and approved by the president. national security strategy, national defense strategy and russian integrated strategy. it's a recognition that america has entered a period of big power competition and in the us policies have grasped the scope of this emerging trend and adequately equipped our nation to succeed. the central aim of order and policy is to prepare our nation to confront this challenge systematically strengthening the military, economic and political dominance of american power. our russian policy proceeds from the recognition that to be effective, us diplomacy must be back military power that is second to none, fully integrated with our instruments of power. to that end we have reversed years of cuts to the defense budget, the on the process of recapitalizing the nuclear arsenal, requesting $11 billion in the european initiative and working within nato to bring about $40 million in european defen

seymour short he said the people at the pentagon knew that this was nothing to do with the russian federation say. if it's not your government how do we know it's still not under the aegis of your government and it's the russian mafia the people who got rich off the in the is very simple first of all five months since the time of the accident in seoul very and we opened a criminal case in russia and we offered the corporation for the british to the british just understand maybe together what happened there but. we cannot talk to these groups we cannot talk to the doctors we cannot talk to the people who are in saw in soulsby i mean in general one way or another engage in the police appear ration and of course nobody is rated to talk to us in the porton down of course in this circumstance it's very difficult to understand what's going on here there are widely reported. stories by mainstream reporters who may be better connected than i am with the british secret services who say that surrogate script would never want to come to russia because he was frightened of the russian state and now we he

by the russian federation. continuing occupation of crimea, current military operations in ukraine, malicious cyber attacks, illicit regiment of -- illicit procurement of restricted u.s. technologies, violation of crucial arms treaties, support to the assad regime's barbarism, the assassination of dissidents, and the unconscionable use of a nerve agent in the u.k., and ongoing efforts to interfere in our election process are some of the unacceptable behaviors of the putin regime. countering russian aggression is a top priority for the treasury department. the net effect of our actions is an unprecedented level. of financial pressure mounted against the kremlin, oligarch proxies, and key sectors of the russian economy. to date, this administration has applied sanctions on 223 russia related entities and individuals ranging from social media troll farms to cyber actors to russia's state owned defense conglomerate which has been supplying billions of dollars worth of weaponry to the assad regime. additionally, tre

we agree with the assessment that it was a agent and that the perpetrator was ultimately the russian federationi leave it to others to give those kinds of details of what we currently understand obviously from reading the press it appears that their investigation is ongoing in terms of the scope and nature of the details and its implications but i'll leave that to others. now in asia the russian embassy to the u.s. has said that washington has presented no evidence on moscow's role in the soulsby poisoning over claims that the information on the incident was classified classified information that russia keeps asking for an open and transparent investigation we understand already the u.k. prime minister's office has welcomed the new batch of u.s. sanctions on russia exactly yes and before we also saw after the screwball poisoning we saw a wave of diplomatic expulsions from the u.k. and stateside as well from the u.s. which already expelled around sixty diplomats so measures have already been taken but there were countries that didn't expect any depth about it because they wanted concrete evidenc

they are trying naive really to change the behavior of the russian federation by not imposing all the sanctions at once and. frankly from the point of view of the peace movement we were guarded the whole sanctions business and the hysteria against russia as a means of career perry in the american public for a possible military confrontation with russia in the future and not only american population in canada we have the same hysteria from our government and mainstream media and they and britain it's the same as well these savage loons well have no effect that counterproductive they only they only build a mosque to be frankly i don't think there's many more things that they could sanction against the russian federation because they have just about run out of things to sanction this is completely a fabric a good issue this hysteria over russia and the sooner the american government grows up and acts like an adult then the sooner the so for the american people and the rest of the world of course will be. trump russia collation stories i can gaining momentum that now one t.v. channel isn'

after the russian federation vetoed extension of the j.i.m. mandate in an effort to hide the assad regimes crimes, we worked assiduously with other chemical weapons convention states parties to give the opcw the authority to fulfill the j.i.m. old mission. we continued our efforts and just last month we were successful in ensuring that the uk drafted use supported and cosponsored decision on attribution of chemical weapons use was adopted at a special conference state parties at the opcw. but i would be remiss if i did not also note u.s. effort outside of the opcw to bring pressure on damascus over its use of these heinous weapons. these include treasury department sanctions on key figures within the syrian regime, the department of states efforts to impede the flow of key dual use supplies to the cw program, and, of course, u.s. militaries airstrikes. i also do not want to minimize the important role that our partners have played in the effort from the eu's long-standing dual use export ban on syria to francis international partnership agains
