just one final point in that news conference that joe biden just had president biden he also mentioned ukraine of course russia is amassing troops on the russian ukrainian border now ukraine is not a member of nato so the u.s. would have to be involved if it didn't have to you but how much all of an escalating factor do you think that could be anyone could joe biden make all these comments and then just stand by if russia does end up invading ukraine. well if russia invades ukraine i think all bets are off in terms of our relationship i don't think the us would go to war there is no nato commitment you know president biden would have to go to congress and try to explain to the american people why the u.s. is going to war with a nuclear power i think that's very unlikely and most european countries certainly don't want that either but it would require i think extraordinary can all make sanctions certainly would be no summit you know the u.s. and europe would have to respond in a fairly tough way so this is something which no one wants to happen most people believes that putin is posturi

president joe biden has old at the pentagon to remove some military elements and forces in the gulf this is according to a report in the wall street journal the u.s. has reportedly removed at least 3 patriot anti-missile batteries including one from a base in saudi arabia this at the same time as of course riyadh continues to face attacks from across the border in yemen american officials say an aircraft carrier and surveillance systems are being diverted to answer military needs elsewhere around the world it's we're going to talk to mark jacobson about this former advisor to the u.s. secretary of defense currently the assistant dean in the washington programs at syracuse university's maxwell school of citizenship and public affairs i think that's the longest title i've ever read on and nice to have you with this. simple question 1st of all why why would why why this and why now i actually think that this is a fairly routine matter even though it's understandable that the saudis may see this or interpret this as being some sort of signal by the administration and frankly the u.s. central

biden called george floyd's brother on monday so long as what the president say to you what did you say to him and what was that like in general. it was just a scholar. he no it is the lose of them a member he knows the process of what we've gone through so he was just learning no lynas no he was praying for us in hoping that everything will come out to be ok this is basically john 100 is following the trial for us from minneapolis and john really is the 1st full day for the jury to deliberate really what's going on and it's a village bit of a waiting game in a tent city and a tense country waiting for the verdict. that's right security is high and tensions are even higher as the entire nation waits for this verdict there is a kind of eerie calm here in minneapolis for the moment somewhere the jury is deliberating in isolation buildings are boarded up schools are closing for the rest of the week and until this verdict comes down the city's in a kind of suspended animation if you look behind me you can see the gates there that tall building at the end of the road that's the courthous

biden about harris for not coming down here and there's a lot of consciousness and awareness that joe biden i'm going to last for a very long time took a great deal of credit for giving huge amounts of money to the police for the cost of the state would boast about their law and order records so they always say look you should come down here make up for that now they're more what was the term they used to be a lip service to be on the having more relatives cry on your shoulder about you know that empathetic president that we have now joe biden and i actually do something and start actually coming here and that even if the shaving about it was read to me you know the fatal shooting of a black woman what more do we know about that case we know those details actually as the just a half an hour before the verdict was was announced apparently the shooting happened and now a new feature actually i suppose of police shootings the body count video was released rapidly clearly there's a real awareness now from police or police forces about what they have to do i think one of the reasons was th

the verdict resonated in the white house where president joe biden called floyd's family we hadn't seen since the civil rights era in the sixty's protests that unified people of every race generation and peace and with purpose to say enough's enough enough of the senseless killings today. today's verdict is a step forward the legal system had to operate behind barricades manned by national guard troops in a city that border that business is in closed schools in anticipation of a ruling that ended months of demonstrations with celebration. the case that began with a fake $20.00 bill and ended with a nationwide movement might have gone unnoticed if it hadn't been for a viral video taken by a 17 year old girl is excruciating to watch as it was to re watch over and over again throughout the trial of a man treated with dignity speaking his final words to. crowds of man the streets of minneapolis and the nation since floyd died on may 25th as they leave the courthouse square he insists the movement will continue. and john hendren has a standing by for us is standing right outside where the in
