Tillerson calls for balancing US security interests, values
Det ser bra ut. Vi får se vad det innebär i praktiken.
Att man blir av med utrikesdepartementets "experter" är nog alltid positivt
Tillerson calls for balancing US security interests, values
Citat:
"In some circumstances, if you condition our national security efforts on someone adopting our values, we probably can't achieve our national security goals," Tillerson said. "It really creates obstacles to our ability to advance our national security interests, our economic interests."
Citat:
—On Russia, Tillerson said "there's almost no trust" between the world's greatest nuclear powers, but that the administration was trying to rebuild trust by looking at one issue at a time. First up is Syria, as Washington and Moscow see if they can get a cease-fire that can hold.
—On America's two closest neighbors, he said Mexico and Canada are "ready to engage in a good-faith effort" to update their trade relationships with America, alluding to Trump's insistence that the North America Free Trade Agreement be renegotiated or canceled. He said ties with both aren't "as rocky as it looks sometimes."
—In Asia, he said the U.S. has prepared new sanctions on North Korea. He said the U.S. will take action against countries failing to fully implement existing United Nations penalties on doing business with Pyongyang. He said the administration is taking a new look at relations with China and next month would hold the first session of a diplomatic and security dialogue with senior Chinese officials.

Citat:
Tillerson's address came as he prepares a massive reorganization and downsizing that has fueled Democratic and Republican fears that the Trump administration is relegating the importance of aid and diplomacy. Even as Tillerson proposes a 26 percent cut to the budget, Trump is pressing for a major funding boost to the Pentagon and has already secured billions of dollars in new military funding from Congress.

USA ledda styrkor får ISIS att fly i Syrien: 
"Dozens of black veils dotted a freshly laid sand berm in northern Syria, ditched by women fleeing the Islamic State group's bastion of Raqa as US-backed fighters close in."
"With air support from the US-led coalition, the alliance of Kurdish and Arab fighters has seized swathes of territory from the jihadists, who were stationed less than a kilometre away."
"The bodies of alleged IS fighters were still visible around Tishreen Farms, along with destroyed vehicles on the side of the road that testified to the heavy strikes that targeted the area."

"the greatest threat of any nation on Earth"
Hur och vad kommer Trump att svara? Det där låter ju sjuuuukt allvarligt (och coool!).

FBI Director James Comey says Russia is still involved in American politics and that they are the greatest threat of any nation on Earth, "given their intention and capability."
