1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: Charlie Pellett. President Trump is expressing concern that Iran is

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: moving to rebuild its nuclear capabilities and bolster its ballistic

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: missile program.

5
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 2: I hope they're not trying to build up again, because

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,440
Speaker 2: if they are, we're going to have no choice.

7
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 3: But very quickly to eradicate that build up. So I

8
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 3: hope Iran is not trying to build up as I've

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 3: been reading that they're building up weapons and other things.

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 3: And if they are, they're not using the sites that

11
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,599
Speaker 3: we obliterated, but they're using possibly different sites. We know

12
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 3: exactly where they're going what they're doing.

13
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: The warning came as President Trump said Hamas will be

14
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: given a very short period of time to disarm.

15
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: They made an agreement that they were going to disarm,

16
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: and you couldn't blame Isuel. By the way, we have

17
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: other countries that will come in and do it. They said,

18
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: let us do it for you. If they don't. Countries

19
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 2: that were with them. One of the deals have been

20
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: made agreed that they would disarm. And now if they

21
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: say they're going to disarm, that's fine. If they say

22
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: they're not going to disarm those same countries will go

23
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 2: and wipe them out.

24
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: Those remarks followed a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjaminette Yahoo,

25
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: who praised President.

26
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 4: Trump America can advance its interest in the Middle East

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 4: if it opens a lot of daylight between and Israel,

28
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 4: and President Trump has done the exact opposite. He's achieved

29
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 4: remarkable things in the Middle East because we've worked together.

30
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,760

32
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: asked Trump for US security guarantees lasting as long as

33
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: half a century to help deter any future Russian invasion.

Speaker 5: The first propositions security grantees for fifteen years. It's good

37
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 5: proposition with possibility of continuation. But we spoke with President

38
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 5: A was very open with him that. Mister President. I said, look,

39
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 5: we have now the war which is almost fifteen years.

40
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 5: We'll respect these proposition, but maybe we can make more,

41
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 5: and he said he will work on it.

42
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:18,200

Speaker 1: allegedly carrying drugs in the Eastern Pacific, killing two people.

45
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,680

46
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,919

47
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,440

48
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: administration has categorized several Latin American drug cartels as terror groups.

49
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: The United Nations is urging global leaders to focus on

50
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,560

Speaker 6: On this new year that's resolved to get our priorities straight.

54
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 6: A safer world begins by investing more in fighting poverty

55
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,960

58
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 7: Let that sink in for a moment. Twenty five thousand

59
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 7: illegal guns not able to feed the river of violence.

60
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 7: We were able to damn that river with our actions.

61
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 7: In a world where just one gun can tear an

62
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:40,080
