She hit to a lot 07:10.250 --> 07:12.250 of questions about the so ready to ensure the building. 07:12.250 --> 07:15.710 That's deal with this the ramifications of a patient us overseas. 07:16.580 --> 07:20.000 I think they're also appropriate you so so prickly that you on 07:20.140 --> 07:23.430 what does the administration their greedy with the minority report 07:23.630 --> 07:27.990 that was released yesterday the War goes it all those of agreed 07:27.990 --> 07:31.370 with the The onions are the majority report was released just 07:31.370 --> 07:35.680 there does a As issues with it like psalm in the minority on 07:35.680 --> 07:36.970 that committee uh huh. 07:37.750 --> 07:41.080 Well on I think my colleague up at the white house addressed 07:41.110 --> 07:45.400 this a earlier when he dead did his own breaking um. We're not 07:45.400 --> 07:48.450 going to common and any specific a findings or conclusions and 07:48.450 --> 07:51.980 the committee's report the minority port for the CIA a others 07:52.260 --> 07:56.480 saw a argues that we supported the release. I'm of the report 07:56.570 --> 08:01.850 um we believe to that um and uh it was the an opportunity to 08:01.880 --> 08:06.400 a kind of layout. So mistakes that happened in the past and and 08:06.400 --> 08:09.290 then try to move forward to the future to do you agree re with 08:09.290 --> 08:12.720 its funding. I I get I'm not gonna speak to the findings of their 08:12.780 --> 08:15.990 work by saying you support that is the new except for fun and 08:16.070 --> 08:19.280 of them we seven mortar I release but I can I think the most 08:19.280 --> 08:22.440 important point not again but the most important banana 22 is 08:22.440 --> 08:25.500 that one of the first apps that the person did when he came into 08:25.530 --> 08:28.620 office was sign an executive order that right and and the program 08:28.700 --> 08:31.660 that and prohibited the use of harsh anti turkish an techniques 08:31.940 --> 08:35.080 the happen more than five years ago. So this isn't speaking to 08:35.080 --> 08:38.410 programs that are on go. No wonder that uh. Yeah I think everyone 08:38.510 --> 08:41.470 is aware that but I think it's right up roll at that point of view. 08:41.470 --> 08:45.450 I'm wondering if you buy so you use the fork the release of this world. 08:45.950 --> 08:48.130 He does that mean that you accept that's fine. 08:49.460 --> 08:52.830 Well I think we made a decision that has been made a decision 08:52.830 --> 08:56.170 to and these programs five years ago. I think that speaks for itself. 08:56.220 --> 08:56.900 So who do. 08:57.610 --> 09:00.180 I'm not gonna speak probably to the findings of their a poor 09:00.210 --> 09:02.860 I think that's an important point that that's decision was already 09:02.860 --> 09:06.150 made long before there are mine used to me and for me if I'm 09:06.150 --> 09:09.350 wrong that the in joseph the poor because it does not intend 09:09.350 --> 09:12.270 to reopen any investigation into alleged. 09:13.050 --> 09:14.840 Uh what was alleged to have happen. 09:15.410 --> 09:18.550 And I'm wondering if you if that's not role on. 09:19.160 --> 09:20.480 Mm. Uh what. 09:21.170 --> 09:25.770 Always is going to be when you call for accountability world 09:25.900 --> 09:28.070 rights abuses in other countries. 09:28.720 --> 09:31.840 Uh how we have we're going to be able to do that. 09:32.390 --> 09:33.450 Of without being. 09:34.140 --> 09:35.600 Your session laughed out of the Wall. 09:36.390 --> 09:39.580 Well I certainly play is dependent justices. You know that they 09:39.580 --> 09:43.510 pretty spoken to that's what I would say one up a we would at 09:43.590 --> 09:47.610 what our record against any record around the world and lee think 09:47.610 --> 09:52.070 it's very rare a and unique for country back to decide to put 09:52.070 --> 09:56.220 out a report such is that's out of a release of a report that 09:56.220 --> 10:00.430 we supported I points. The fact that um you know we believe these 10:00.430 --> 10:04.450 techniques for contrary to our values as a nation of or overall 10:04.450 --> 10:08.490 detrimental of we believe that the president has said that it may. 10:08.490 --> 10:11.330 Well be that it's rare for countries to do it but. 10:11.880 --> 10:14.520 What you're just send your so you're pointing out of time with 10:14.520 --> 10:17.380 the pork those point out of palm of those hold anyone accountable. 10:18.170 --> 10:22.370 You regularly complain from this podium and embassies do a little 10:22.420 --> 10:23.260 role as well. 10:23.840 --> 10:28.030 When foreign governments do not follow through and hold people 10:28.030 --> 10:32.260 accountable for what you consider to be won't doing since you 10:32.330 --> 10:33.260 consider what. 10:33.850 --> 10:38.100 Or I'll lives to have been long doing how can you continue to 10:38.100 --> 10:41.410 make those kind of cases to make the or to make those arguments 10:41.630 --> 10:45.350 if no one is actually gonna be held accountable kia. It here 10:45.350 --> 10:49.180 at home. Well but I think what we pointed out is that I'm we're 10:49.180 --> 10:52.420 willing to be transparent about our mistakes. So we learn from 10:52.420 --> 10:55.820 them and we change and our actions are evidence of the old a 10:55.970 --> 10:58.400 wonderful it would to be transparent about it all the lot with 10:58.430 --> 11:01.160 said that the quite a long time. It was to come out. 11:01.790 --> 11:02.250 Uh. 11:03.110 --> 11:08.350 The Has spoken to benefit of but you're going to use a into its 11:08.350 --> 11:10.570 attracted a transparent easily. 11:11.610 --> 11:12.380 The watch. 11:13.070 --> 11:14.880 The other half billboard it is. 11:15.580 --> 11:18.940 Is so winded won't know they're gonna be polish for and the answers 11:18.940 --> 11:21.770 from the administration seems to be no so you seem to be saying 11:21.800 --> 11:25.250 that well we can just see our dirty water your uh whatever you. 11:25.790 --> 11:29.000 How are you wanna just private and that's it that's done with it. 11:29.030 --> 11:30.470 What what other countries do that. 11:31.760 --> 11:35.440 And only that you say that's not acceptable kyle was it that 11:35.440 --> 11:37.990 you're gonna be able to keep you know have appeared out of it. 11:38.030 --> 11:41.650 I can you keep a straight face if you except the report finding. 11:42.260 --> 11:45.260 But they'll do anything about what we did do something about it. 11:45.260 --> 11:48.210 We ended the practice. I think that's significant countries will 11:48.210 --> 11:51.510 see that the of but toshiba use supportive. So uh you know I'm 11:51.510 --> 11:54.680 not that AOL compelling these the U.S supported work. Punch trials 11:54.680 --> 11:58.100 and things like that and it it for other countries. 11:58.730 --> 12:03.220 The Played two of those things that you should do is to hold 12:03.220 --> 12:07.190 people actually accountable to punish them. If they do something role. 12:08.060 --> 12:10.460 You're saying in this instance that people did. 12:11.200 --> 12:12.180 That that was that. 12:12.970 --> 12:16.480 We're all the things that contribute to improving us buttons. 12:16.990 --> 12:20.660 Or your or at the same time saving you're not prepared to hold 12:20.660 --> 12:23.940 them accountable. I would that I was her due to have a conversation 12:23.940 --> 12:26.750 of the department of justice and have anything to institute does 12:26.750 --> 12:29.480 the state that foreman had any concerns that its arguments in 12:29.480 --> 12:33.160 human rights for around the world particularly today human rights. 12:33.910 --> 12:35.410 A call from all single. 12:35.920 --> 12:38.610 By the fact that there is a gonna be any accountability here 12:38.610 --> 12:41.720 in like you think that just publishing of will for work senate. 12:42.620 --> 12:45.340 Majority publishing is from for is good enough. 12:46.310 --> 12:49.540 No contention we met. I think in all of our conversations with 12:49.540 --> 12:53.000 countries around the world will continue to convey that we end 12:53.030 --> 12:55.530 this practice those one of the first that's the president made 12:55.720 --> 12:58.600 we're going to be open and transparent about arms stakes and 12:58.600 --> 13:01.530 make changes and that's exactly what we do your one. So good 13:01.800 --> 13:03.930 the answer is that you're basically gonna so that your dinner 13:03.930 --> 13:06.040 the it's gonna be a poll ample. 13:06.680 --> 13:10.230 Do was I said I not as I have gone would be actually. 13:10.730 --> 13:14.580 We made the decision to lay out very transparently. What exactly 13:14.580 --> 13:18.250 will uh we had done in the past that we didn't think a was consistent 13:18.250 --> 13:21.300 with our values and I think that's shows strength as as a nation 13:21.300 --> 13:24.190 than the the conversational up and one thing he will argue that 13:24.190 --> 13:27.630 showing three does not just reviewing its but actually doing 13:27.630 --> 13:30.650 something about it other than the changing and the fact that 13:30.650 --> 13:34.060 you don't just and you can't just ended and not polish everybody 13:34.090 --> 13:37.270 can claim that it.

I'd have to pop or 17:46.750 --> 17:49.570 legal team of there's anything new that I'm Italy's the is that 17:49.600 --> 17:53.310 how strong reactions being I certainly believe that since we've 17:53.310 --> 17:56.310 been preparing their person embassies around the world. We certainly are. 17:56.540 --> 17:59.660 Well aware of the sensitivity round these issues that that's 17:59.660 --> 18:02.640 why the president and these ended these programs five years ago. 18:02.910 --> 18:06.990 I I don't have any assessment of of how surprised we were warned 18:07.020 --> 18:10.470 about the respond just when a few shows dave it may the um you 18:10.470 --> 18:12.430 know just that's still some of its moral fitting. 18:13.760 --> 18:18.090 Uh I know if we don't feel that we have read a release this report 18:18.090 --> 18:22.440 in order to a layout of for the world's uh some programs and 18:22.440 --> 18:24.910 techniques that we've ended more than five years ago that we 18:24.910 --> 18:27.760 don't believe are consistent with our values and that's a very 18:27.760 --> 18:32.190 relevant part of the equation here in terms of out the context. 18:32.190 --> 18:34.650 That's the conversational having with countries around the world 18:34.650 --> 18:37.130 and will continue to take steps to improve our own record is 18:37.130 --> 18:40.620 needed chicken dishes to or itself to those programs. 18:41.300 --> 18:45.280 I'm deeply you know the specific them in this Argentine south 18:45.280 --> 18:46.440 are forecast at about. 18:46.970 --> 18:50.160 For out that the suspects in that way and they retreat to shoot 18:50.160 --> 18:53.500 the people who were involved in that she can be feeding sharon 18:53.870 --> 18:57.310 in the summer techniques that you're talking about repeats of 18:57.390 --> 19:01.370 the teens people thing. Alone from the our hands shackled this 19:01.370 --> 19:03.730 in savings bank to. 19:04.640 --> 19:08.430 And and the cypriot pretty it can you imagine evil bladed fan 19:08.430 --> 19:11.910 tree to people in the in captivity since it. No I think you saw 19:11.910 --> 19:15.050 out the present United States and the secretary of state fulfill 19:15.050 --> 19:19.320 the strong statements yesterday indicating that those tactics 19:19.350 --> 19:22.190 of those techniques are not consistent with our values. 19:22.190 --> 19:26.550 That's why these programs rented a five years ago. I at the same 19:26.550 --> 19:30.950 time of we believe that I'm obviously the men and women of course 19:30.950 --> 19:35.000 serving a in our intelligence agencies and men and women of who 19:35.000 --> 19:38.730 have surfaced take tell peep our country safer doing a playing 19:38.920 --> 19:42.210 important roles then and one that we have great value and respect 19:42.210 --> 19:45.060 for but it doesn't mean that those tactics and techniques should 19:45.090 --> 19:46.150 be continued to. 19:47.250 --> 19:50.050 Well she will those questions you should we released this report. 19:50.210 --> 19:53.470 Well we you did not waste as a quarter of the release of the 19:53.470 --> 19:54.340 report full of it. 19:55.220 --> 19:56.360 Yeah and you didn't want it to. 19:56.900 --> 20:00.900 I Matt actually no that's incredibly one of the delayed you'd 20:00.900 --> 20:04.330 in one of the we believed the secretary when he spoke with senator 20:04.330 --> 20:07.200 fine fan. The first thing he said was that he supported the release 20:07.200 --> 20:10.100 of their reporting it was a paper on the timing. So that's incorrect 20:10.190 --> 20:12.720 that than the other thing is to use that uh. 20:14.120 --> 20:16.640 I prison but I don't know what I wanna make sure that your wrist 20:16.640 --> 20:19.260 faults to a question about people their countries calling for 20:19.260 --> 20:22.690 investigations and prosecutions. I think what you believe that 20:22.690 --> 20:24.090 our own legal. 20:25.520 --> 20:27.850 Are you start off with a with this so that we're faults with 20:27.850 --> 20:31.490 applied to thank the U.N special record can where work for true 20:31.490 --> 20:34.380 are you saying that they should be I think they also said that 20:34.380 --> 20:37.230 obviously there are a range of legal questions. I'd just have 20:37.230 --> 20:40.770 to talk early to understand that your response to them calling 20:40.770 --> 20:43.800 for prosecutions which before reform on work for him. 20:44.420 --> 20:48.240 Another one for the new when these are people who supported getting 20:48.240 --> 20:50.020 these positions and the un system. 20:50.660 --> 20:53.940 They're both calling for prosecution show initiative. No statute 20:53.940 --> 20:57.010 of limitations in though I'm no immunity has. 20:57.560 --> 21:01.680 Ratcheted your response to them would be the same as you response 21:01.680 --> 21:04.750 to that country boy I think I said two things one was probably 21:04.750 --> 21:07.940 speaking a while we're committed of course to come flying buyer 21:07.940 --> 21:10.690 domestic and international obligations when to leave the yes 21:10.690 --> 21:13.840 tessa system is the appropriate place for allegations about conduct 21:14.090 --> 21:17.970 by us officials to be handled. Well they're also range of five 21:17.970 --> 21:21.500 different questions about their legal obligations and you know 21:21.500 --> 21:24.010 the convention and I have to just talk are looking and see if 21:24.010 --> 21:26.830 there's more that to shoot the use of this are in short because 21:26.830 --> 21:29.700 it would seem to be that if you don't go edit or a lot of with 21:29.700 --> 21:33.600 question and Russia's if you don't prosecute what you. 21:34.270 --> 21:37.130 Considered to be a wrongdoing. 21:37.980 --> 21:41.000 Those that you in violation of your international obligations 21:41.000 --> 21:43.970 something you play regularly that other countries are. 21:44.900 --> 21:45.980 And a violation. 21:46.710 --> 21:50.890 All. So that that is so if if you could. 21:52.560 --> 21:56.130 Yes. Motion is uses the us justice system is the appropriate 21:56.130 --> 21:58.890 place where you believe there's a preferred pro but you see how 21:58.890 --> 22:00.010 people can find that. 22:00.690 --> 22:07.830 He. Amusing at best and the disingenuous at worst a. 22:08.930 --> 22:11.640 Given the fact that in no one's gonna be prosecuted for years. 22:12.170 --> 22:15.500 It's not even a getting get to the justices metaphor there to 22:15.500 --> 22:18.760 the This is the end of this I don't have anything to know what 22:18.790 --> 22:20.730 I'm not asking you about that decision. 22:21.350 --> 22:24.720 I'm asking you about the implications of that decision as a relates 22:24.720 --> 22:29.290 to for Paulson and you or attempting to get other countries to 22:29.340 --> 22:32.840 five politics international obligations and commitments that 22:33.170 --> 22:35.610 that more that the administration views. 22:36.230 --> 22:39.550 Not abiding by them. So well I'm not going to make a sleeping 22:39.600 --> 22:43.030 that Alsatian I probably not going to entertain and a specific 22:43.030 --> 22:47.000 example of comparison you have not but obviously again this happened 22:47.230 --> 22:50.440 these programs run did five years ago which is relevant information 22:50.470 --> 22:54.110 this car has an end of the United States decided to and um and 22:54.110 --> 22:57.430 that's important contacts in our foreign policy discussion foot 22:57.460 --> 23:01.860 put to show the full blows United States. Now rests solemn if 23:01.890 --> 23:04.990 something was being done something would go on that was a Wall 23:04.990 --> 23:06.850 um and they use stopped it. 23:08.060 --> 23:10.790 That's the end of the story. I don't have any more to add on 23:10.790 --> 23:14.540 the justice question. But added I can leave it anyone who just 23:14.540 --> 23:17.030 bake news program should be allowed to keep their job. 23:17.880 --> 23:21.240 Or I'm not gonna speak more specifically to that's go ahead and 23:21.240 --> 23:23.350 get to know let's just finish this topic legend. 23:23.920 --> 23:27.690 She ended up for the will the in that it will dislikes the vacation 23:27.720 --> 23:28.560 sites this. 23:29.120 --> 23:31.170 Was redacted to kept secret to numb. 23:31.770 --> 23:34.790 The film about a president's is cannot stand for its that's one 23:34.790 --> 23:38.010 of the scientists including from just as Islamic it suspected. 23:38.630 --> 23:41.760 A wedge issue which can found that from the American side um 23:41.760 --> 23:46.200 poaching and one of the city was a said was that the polish OS cheat. 23:46.700 --> 23:51.020 To stop will had also American administration time but he to 23:51.020 --> 23:55.890 still I'm doing it interrogations happening um the case that 23:55.890 --> 23:59.570 could get a T um insight into what was going on the programs 23:59.570 --> 24:02.310 to secretive about coped with its because they're action I don't 24:02.310 --> 24:05.350 have the reaction of common that you like to keep that he came 24:05.350 --> 24:07.660 out this is the former polish president because it does have 24:07.660 --> 24:08.400 any comments on. 24:09.350 --> 24:11.920 In a let out let's just say that and promise we should be on 24:12.010 --> 24:15.800 the hair idea question amidst reports that that quickly uh something 24:15.830 --> 24:19.200 um and and the fetus one question churned bottles Osteen. 24:19.230 --> 24:20.160 I'm close it. 24:20.690 --> 24:23.560 A if it's taken from down Emerson said that you know States are 24:23.560 --> 24:26.650 not free to maintain or from that impunity for these crimes under 24:26.650 --> 24:29.800 the conventions put friendlier saying that if the U.S. 24:29.800 --> 24:32.980 continues its baltic not prosecuting those responsible for these 24:32.980 --> 24:37.190 programs do not aware of whether or it's not clear one of us 24:37.190 --> 24:39.490 would still be in compliance with its convention and he's not 24:39.490 --> 24:43.200 at all what I said actually but I conveyed that probably speaking 24:43.230 --> 24:46.630 we believe that art.

Okay but the 29:17.580 --> 29:21.630 canadian a topic that include the date was kinda like with him 29:22.120 --> 29:25.410 and Palestinian officials yet of I was to build. 29:26.250 --> 29:28.800 Up a scuffle with that issue in one of one of the. State. 29:32.680 --> 29:35.750 And think you're the question say the air deeply concerned by 29:35.750 --> 29:39.660 that that a Palestinian authority senior official said i've that 29:39.690 --> 29:42.780 are in which the reportedly occurred during a protest in the 29:42.780 --> 29:46.820 west bank we offer our condolences to his family and the Palestinian 29:46.820 --> 29:51.230 authority we've seen the reports that the as relates a our the 29:51.260 --> 29:54.580 looking into an investigation into this incident as always we 29:54.580 --> 29:57.650 call for this investigation to be swift fair and transparent 29:58.020 --> 30:01.250 the at this difficult time we continue to call in bowl five still 30:01.280 --> 30:04.070 work to lower tensions and prevent an escalation of violence. 30:04.670 --> 30:08.780 Told you to fit in a fluffy is suspended a and security cooperation 30:08.780 --> 30:11.890 with israel area where the That's in the our planet to to to 30:11.890 --> 30:14.910 tucker came and I got a new way of any calls that were made by 30:14.910 --> 30:18.410 this acoustic perhaps two dozen. How bastions contention that 30:18.410 --> 30:21.530 the system security cooperation has you know we've supported 30:21.530 --> 30:24.530 the security cooperation in the past second proper team and see 30:24.530 --> 30:27.640 if there and consummate over the last few uh and and that in 30:27.640 --> 30:31.390 the 60 shit Tripoli release of you go to discuss the issues that 30:31.390 --> 30:32.990 anything in particular at that. 30:33.560 --> 30:37.430 That's why won't was chosen and second that it's anything that 30:37.820 --> 30:38.580 that when. 30:39.200 --> 30:42.640 You focus on that actually stand up to me. Although although 30:42.640 --> 30:46.420 also stirred my talk about premonition. So that the human um. 30:46.520 --> 30:49.520 Well I'm certainly not going to get ahead of the idea the secretaries 30:49.520 --> 30:52.370 discussions with prime minister Netanyahu and others or other 30:52.630 --> 30:56.450 decisions about what they United States will do on any ions for 30:56.450 --> 30:59.800 that is not yet been tea bolts. I'm clearly uh there's a range 30:59.800 --> 31:02.400 of proposals out there that they're growing number of countries 31:02.400 --> 31:05.800 that are pushing for action on this issue at the un this once 31:05.800 --> 31:09.040 discussion with israel the palestinians and key members of the 31:09.040 --> 31:11.750 international community and certainly they'll be part of their 31:11.750 --> 31:15.030 focuses Wall she just adding you the freedom that she mentioned 31:15.030 --> 31:19.600 the in the front of the day israel quote down oxon television 31:19.690 --> 31:22.970 which Phnom compromise that it's a couple can station an animal 31:23.280 --> 31:27.290 would you call and into open and let it be designated as a terrorist organization. 31:27.860 --> 31:31.560 Attended as well we had as you know we've also buzzing it condoms. 31:31.560 --> 31:33.960 I was chatting with our team in the eighth with a particular 31:33.960 --> 31:35.440 common on the closing of the television. 31:36.900 --> 31:40.750 The am opening that that you're what is exactly use of the year 31:40.750 --> 31:43.410 to make sure deeply concerned. I mean obviously. 31:44.030 --> 31:44.760 That god. 31:45.280 --> 31:49.110 I'm do believe that that's the results look that he died as a 31:49.110 --> 31:49.940 result of. 31:50.510 --> 31:53.170 Of Israeli security forces. 31:53.750 --> 31:56.400 We're leaning and we really don't have the tells as you know 31:56.400 --> 31:59.310 that at this point. So I have a say there's been a range of video 31:59.310 --> 32:01.640 and reports out there. But we don't have a conclusion and one 32:01.640 --> 32:05.060 half an hour or are you familiar old when the sky it's a. 32:06.440 --> 32:10.630 Past. A little bit. But is there particular as well and just 32:10.630 --> 32:15.000 let me use a Palestinian official. Obviously senior Palson belsen 32:15.030 --> 32:18.410 minister of that's of concern any time one dies but he was a 32:18.410 --> 32:21.450 trick I get from the U.S. and serve the some stolen from prison 32:21.450 --> 32:22.430 in israel for killing. 32:23.180 --> 32:26.870 Ah some Israelis and then was released as part of a prisoner swap. 32:27.270 --> 32:30.040 I'm not suggesting that that should make it he did do the trick. 32:30.850 --> 32:34.400 Impact of older offering can gold to strictest family and not. 32:34.940 --> 32:39.820 What I'm just wondering if the that that past is past was weighted 32:40.250 --> 32:44.110 it if it was looked into it all before you came out with a well 32:44.140 --> 32:47.580 regardless of the past is past. We don't have all the circumstances 32:47.580 --> 32:51.570 of this stuff in so it's until we know those I think we had but 32:51.570 --> 32:54.200 it certainly balloting tough to fight that's to be deeply concerned 32:54.200 --> 32:58.270 about the power of on the other so that one I'm used to play 32:58.270 --> 33:02.120 that Md of those on this particular and the way for one of you 33:02.250 --> 33:04.640 were you aware of the latest a um. 33:05.230 --> 33:08.660 Call that's that's uh different israeli defense minister go home. 33:08.930 --> 33:13.210 I have a mess you have any the about settlements and us criticism 33:13.210 --> 33:13.540 of them. 33:14.210 --> 33:18.790 The duz use them as a the as a as as evidence that you or. 33:19.370 --> 33:23.160 Um complaints sore your dough month's tuition. So of solar activity 33:23.160 --> 33:26.310 has have in fact have had had an impact. 33:27.170 --> 33:30.750 Well we all fall the condensate wouldn't go that far. I think 33:31.080 --> 33:34.260 one thing I would nose and she gave me the upper katie is that 33:34.540 --> 33:38.010 I'm are are opposition this administration's opposition to settlements 33:38.010 --> 33:40.990 is fully consistent with the paul fees of the administration's 33:40.990 --> 33:45.100 for decades. I including a poll party spats to the notion that 33:45.100 --> 33:48.750 that would change is not the borne out by history the notion 33:48.750 --> 33:51.210 that mean what's the overhauls the administration. 33:52.180 --> 33:54.990 He says was quoted as saying the obama administration is about 33:54.990 --> 33:58.270 the last forever which is seems to be in a statement of that 33:58.310 --> 34:01.160 that is iraq. I will be done with few years. But you work for 34:01.300 --> 34:02.950 your your your predicting that. 34:03.450 --> 34:07.940 Whatever. Whoever the next president is is or or the administration 34:07.940 --> 34:11.330 is not going to change the us position all get that policy has 34:11.330 --> 34:14.970 been consistently the case for decades after republican and democratic 34:14.970 --> 34:17.880 of maestros soda the ones you would go the science ministry alone. 34:18.470 --> 34:22.070 You start with us opposition to settlements were. 34:22.590 --> 34:26.110 Even beyond the obama administration its air position that policy 34:26.110 --> 34:29.370 has been consistent for quite some time. But usually go build 34:29.750 --> 34:30.970 poll up a crystal ball. 34:31.550 --> 34:34.370 And predicted few there and this is this is an issued though 34:34.370 --> 34:36.170 the use thinks that is years. 34:36.910 --> 34:38.200 By forcing them off. 34:38.960 --> 34:42.930 And it will serve audit has been pretty some time now jessica 34:42.930 --> 34:47.200 said squat was but it's sick to make this a special trip to ride 34:47.560 --> 34:49.210 to meets with israeli prime minister. 34:50.060 --> 34:53.340 Well obviously there hasn't been quite a bit happening on the 34:53.340 --> 34:56.970 ground than he often feels that personal face to face diplomacy 34:56.970 --> 35:01.010 is the most effective way as engaging. I'm an clearly it's also 35:01.010 --> 35:04.710 an opportunity as I mentioned to talk about uh. You know the 35:04.960 --> 35:09.200 push for action. I'm I'm big on the un and the fact that some 35:09.200 --> 35:11.710 countries are encouraging them have a discussion about those 35:11.710 --> 35:16.020 issues that giving away many humans away from them. It's re-election 35:16.380 --> 35:20.000 on does it Butler said something big that the government's good 35:20.000 --> 35:23.240 the changing by some time and make not just to get a government 35:23.240 --> 35:27.450 stripped away will only why not just Sokol the fighter known 35:27.480 --> 35:30.490 for what Apple thinking why why a face to face the to the prime 35:30.490 --> 35:33.950 minister Netanyahu remain is a prime minister of israel. 35:33.980 --> 35:37.380 Obviously we're not balk that or engage with her. Well and anyway 35:37.380 --> 35:40.530 be engage with that the election that the political process in 35:40.530 --> 35:44.850 israel but on their times and you have have to seize the opportunity 35:44.850 --> 35:47.570 to have face to face diplomacy about important issues and not 35:47.570 --> 35:50.320 wait for months into looks just concluded that that you do this 35:50.320 --> 35:54.200 that you did meet today.

And he was he ended an influx of which is supported by the 42:12.330 --> 42:13.350 coming up just that. 42:14.120 --> 42:16.420 Do I have a deep was efficiently is by him. 42:17.180 --> 42:19.510 I don't think that more readout from the mating that they had 42:19.510 --> 42:22.010 spent some time one-on-one as well I can see if there's more 42:22.010 --> 42:23.080 we can convey to one. 42:24.060 --> 42:27.940 Gonna have a field dressings and it was 40 stated the mini really 42:28.000 --> 42:31.880 sesame comes to train scene and regarding the tiny of the report 42:31.880 --> 42:34.680 this to know the philippines urging the international tribunal 42:34.980 --> 42:38.910 to investigate the Thai tennis nine dash why so this reported 42:38.910 --> 42:42.750 this could conclude that the nine guess. Why doesn't accord with 42:42.750 --> 42:46.190 international law.

And technical 42:54.780 --> 42:58.540 series that examines national maritime claims and boundaries 42:58.540 --> 43:01.820 and assesses their consistency with international law the series 43:01.820 --> 43:04.660 so far has addressed mare 10 claims and boundaries that more 43:04.660 --> 43:08.940 than 80 countries. So this is not a a just a one-off um with 43:08.940 --> 43:12.120 many countries being considered in multiple studies a as you 43:12.120 --> 43:15.330 noted we recently published a some air time claims of the philippines 43:15.330 --> 43:19.450 and also a separate study and a nation uh uh. So this is a technical 43:19.450 --> 43:22.610 and legal analysis as part of a larger series and something that 43:22.610 --> 43:25.460 we do regularly from state department but on the U.S. 43:25.460 --> 43:29.970 position on one hand that can say that my space that's not excited but. 43:30.500 --> 43:35.150 On the other fan like um you showing this report object in china 43:35.150 --> 43:39.200 fancy and object in china picky and you're in the lab to access 43:39.380 --> 43:42.880 and providing that addresses some to espouse east asian countries 43:43.080 --> 43:46.290 by doing does help you convince trying and that the United States. 43:46.290 --> 43:49.880 That's not Pixar will this is these are simply reports of which 43:49.880 --> 43:54.080 we've done as I mentioned 80 of them that review legal a either 43:54.080 --> 43:56.830 legal or fear that they're very sorry. So see stationed there 43:56.830 --> 44:01.030 are various technical they're not political um as a matter of 44:01.030 --> 44:04.040 longstanding policy in this hasn't changed at the United States 44:04.040 --> 44:07.180 is not take a position on the sovereignty of wrote when features 44:07.180 --> 44:10.750 in the south china sea nor do we comments on the specific merits 44:10.750 --> 44:14.310 of the philippines china arbitration case.
