The three European parties to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal – France, Germany and the UK (known as the E3) – announced yesterday that they were triggering the agreement’s dispute resolution mechanism.

Keep Confederate statues, but tell the other side of the story? Richmond tries —...
As the battle over removing Confederate monuments rages across the country in the wake of the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., there is increasing talk of a compromise: to leave them up, but also build new statues honoring a more diverse set of heroes. “I can’t help but think that rather than pulling down monuments, as some want to do, rather than tearing down monuments that have graced our ci...
The monuments controversy: Must heroes also be saints?
No one has ever counted them, but surely they exist by the thousands, in almost every state: statues, parks and buildings honoring a man who, in the years leading up to the Civil War, publicly proclaimed his belief that “there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality.” And who, as a wh...

Trump has rare meeting of full national security team to discuss Afghanistan
President Trump presided over a rare meeting of his full national security team Wednesday in the White House. The subject was the future of the U.S. war effort in Afghanistan, and hovering over the discussion was a big question: How committed is the president to a long-term and costly American presence in the country? Trump has said little about America’s longest war since taking office in January, but the debate ov...

U.S. plans to sell Taiwan about $1.42 billion in arms
By David Brunnstrom and Arshad Mohammed WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States plans to sell Taiwan $1.42 billion in arms, the first such sale under the administration of Donald Trump and a move sure to anger China, whose help the president has been seeking to rein in North Korea.

'Clear victory' on travel ban? Not quite
(CNN)President Trump was quick to applaud the Supreme Court's decision partially granting his administration's request to allow the revised travel ban targeting six Muslim-majority countries to take effect, but it's not the "clear victory" he claims it is. The harmful and direct impact of the revised travel ban was so obvious to a majority of the Justices that they stayed a significant part of the measure as soon as they ...

Why Was The Wall Street Journal’s Jay Solomon Involved With an Arms Dealer?
It’s just so bizarre,” said one of Solomon’s Wall Street Journal colleagues, who spoke to The Daily Beast on condition of not being further identified. A second person, a member of Washington’s foreign policy community who considers Solomon “a good friend,” was equally shaken by the AP’s revelation. “Jay always has had these murky relationships in the Middle East and in Asia...
Gung-ho culture at tour agency Warmbier used on N.Korea trip

Capitol Hill Buzz: Rubio joke-investigates Ivanka hug
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio probably started out his day Tuesday thinking about paid family leave, child care tax credits and other deep issues. But when Twitter went wild over an awkward photo of him leaning in for a hug with Ivanka Trump when she arrived for a Capitol Hill meeting, Rubio was smart enough to play along. The photo, taken by an Associated Press congressional reporter with an iPhone, appears to show Trump dec...
