She was beaten, Quczada says, six months ago as part of an apparent revenge attack on her family by gangs that Quczada's husband may have been mixed up with. When her daughter was released after spending a month in the hospital, Quczada immediately fled with her north in hopes of making it to the United States, where she could ask for political asylum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I've heard that if you ask the U.S. for help, they will give it, she says in Spanish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quczada, 36, made it all the way to Tijuana before being turned away by U.S. customs authorities at the San Ysidro border crossing, the busiest port of entry on the U.S. border with Mexico. In recent days, customs officials have told her and dozens of other migrants that the facility was too overwhelmed to begin processing would-be asylum seekers. The Border Patrol has called it a temporary situation. But Quczada is starting to lose hope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We had no other choice but to come here and we can't go back, Quczada says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her family has spent several chilly and drizzly nights sleeping out on the square next to the border crossing.

Lately, the small tent city has been transformed into something more akin to a small refugee camp, with volunteers streaming in from both sides of the border to donate clothing, food and other supplies as people wait to hear if they can get into the U.S. to be processed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/607483494/607483495\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Returning Home Is Not an Option\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>While the most recent caravan — there have been others like it in past years — is getting most of the attention from the Trump administration and the media, the fact is there were already many other migrants staying in Tijuana shelters for weeks, some much longer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of them is Haitian Jean Stevenson Dorvil, who has been waiting to get in for six months, working the odd job in Tijuana when he can.

In recent days, customs officials have told her and dozens of other migrants that the facility was too overwhelmed to begin processing would-be asylum seekers. The Border Patrol has called it a temporary situation.

"content": "\u003cp>Millions of low-income Californians eligible for food stamps are not receiving the benefit, earning the state one of the lowest rankings in the nation for its participation in the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just three states — Utah, North Dakota and Wyoming — have lower rates of participation, according to the latest available \u003ca href=\"https://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/reaching-those-need-estimates-state-supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-participation-2\">federal data\u003c/a> released this year. Meanwhile, California is among the leaders on enrollment in Medi-Cal, the state's version of Medicaid, which also serves people living in low-income households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reasons for California's low food stamp participation rate remain a \"persistent puzzle,\" says Kim McCoy Wade, chief of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdss.ca.gov/inforesources/CalFresh\">CalFresh\u003c/a> branch of the state's Department of Social Services. But she and others suggest historically poor customer service and a bulky bureaucracy have something to do with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp data-pym-loader data-child-src=\"https://apps.npr.org/dailygraphics/graphics/snap-participation-20180427/child.html\" id=\"responsive-embed-snap-participation-20180427\">Loading...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cscript type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"https://pym.nprapps.org/npr-pym-loader.v2.min.js\">\u003c/script>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 4.1 million Californians, or 70 percent of those eligible, are enrolled in the food assistance program known as CalFresh. That leaves about 2 million people out, according to 2015 \u003ca href=\"https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/ops/Reaching2015.pdf\">federal data cited in a January report\u003c/a>. The national average is 83 percent enrolled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet only about 322,000 people who qualify for Medi-Cal aren't signed up, according to a \u003ca href=\"http://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/pdf/2016/Preliminary-CalSIM-20-Regional-Remaining-Uninsured-2017.pdf\">2016 report\u003c/a> by University of California-Berkeley researchers. The researchers estimate that more than \u003ca href=\"http://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/taking-stock-californians-insurance-take-up-under-the-affordable-care-act/\">90 percent\u003c/a> of those eligible for Medi-Cal who don't have another source of insurance are enrolled. Medi-Cal now serves more than 13.5 million people, a number boosted significantly by Medicaid's recent expansion under the Affordable Care Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To address this gap between food assistance and medical assistance, California has begun leveraging its vast pool of new Medi-Cal beneficiaries to boost enrollment in CalFresh. Officials are building upon relationships between county welfare departments and new Medi-Cal enrollees, using electronic records on Medicaid recipients to identify food stamp candidates and then are guiding them through the enrollment process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are taking the successes from the Affordable Care Act and are turning to our next-biggest program and trying to apply those lessons,\" says McCoy Wade. \"The Medi-Cal/CalFresh connection is something where we think there is a lot of room to grow.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The push comes as both Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, are under threat from Washington, D.C. Just this month, Republicans in Congress unveiled a farm bill that would mandate \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/04/12/601900588/republican-farm-bill-calls-on-some-snap-recipients-to-work-or-go-to-school\">stricter work requirements\u003c/a> for SNAP beneficiaries. Several times over the past few years, President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans have proposed overhauling the Medicaid program to rein in costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of California's challenges with the food stamp program is that it is administered at the county level — and there are 58 counties.

That leaves about 2 million people out, according to 2015 \u003ca href=\"https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/ops/Reaching2015.pdf\">federal data cited in a January report\u003c/a>. The national average is 83 percent enrolled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet only about 322,000 people who qualify for Medi-Cal aren't signed up, according to a \u003ca href=\"http://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/pdf/2016/Preliminary-CalSIM-20-Regional-Remaining-Uninsured-2017.pdf\">2016 report\u003c/a> by University of California-Berkeley researchers. The researchers estimate that more than \u003ca href=\"http://laborcenter.berkeley.edu/taking-stock-californians-insurance-take-up-under-the-affordable-care-act/\">90 percent\u003c/a> of those eligible for Medi-Cal who don't have another source of insurance are enrolled. Medi-Cal now serves more than 13.5 million people, a number boosted significantly by Medicaid's recent expansion under the Affordable Care Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To address this gap between food assistance and medical assistance, California has begun leveraging its vast pool of new Medi-Cal beneficiaries to boost enrollment in CalFresh. Officials are building upon relationships between county welfare departments and new Medi-Cal enrollees, using electronic records on Medicaid recipients to identify food stamp candidates and then are guiding them through the enrollment process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are taking the successes from the Affordable Care Act and are turning to our next-biggest program and trying to apply those lessons,\" says McCoy Wade. \"The Medi-Cal/CalFresh connection is something where we think there is a lot of room to grow.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The push comes as both Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, are under threat from Washington, D.C. Just this month, Republicans in Congress unveiled a farm bill that would mandate \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/04/12/601900588/republican-farm-bill-calls-on-some-snap-recipients-to-work-or-go-to-school\">stricter work requirements\u003c/a> for SNAP beneficiaries. Several times over the past few years, President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans have proposed overhauling the Medicaid program to rein in costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of California's challenges with the food stamp program is that it is administered at the county level — and there are 58 counties. Only 10 states run their programs that way. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Because we are decentralized ... it takes us longer to move the whole ship,\" McCoy Wade says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Medicaid, too, is run by counties, and has been more successful in signing people up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Doing things to help integrate the programs can be mutually beneficial, both for saving on administrative costs and being able to enroll more families,\" says \u003ca href=\"https://www.urban.org/author/michael-katz\">Michael Katz\u003c/a>, a research associate at the Urban Institute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, SNAP and Medicaid have different eligibility rules. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not a perfect overlap, but it is a pretty close Venn diagram,\" says \u003ca href=\"https://cfpa.net/our-staff/\">Jared Call\u003c/a>, managing nutrition policy advocate at California Food Policy Advocates, which works to help low-income families access healthy food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several California counties have tried to be proactive in enrolling food stamp candidates from among Medi-Cal beneficiaries.

A larger group of about 150 people has not been let onto the bridge and was preparing for a second night sleeping in an open plaza on the Mexican side.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the migrants are from Honduras and El Salvador, and many have harrowing stories of surviving violence in the country of their birth. The journey to the U.S. border has taken many of them a month on foot and by freight train and bus. However, the bar for being granted asylum in the U.S. is very high and many will not be able to reach it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

You gotta go straight down.’ I didn’t really know what it meant. But I figured somebody was talking to me,” he said, \u003ca href=\"https://new.surfline.com/surf-news/rodrigo-koxa-breaks-guinness-world-record-80-footer-nazare/23691\">according to Surfline\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I got my wave, I let go of the rope, I started to use my rail to angle towards the shoulder, but then realized, if I used my rail, I’d never get deep. And then I remembered: ‘Go straight down.’ When I said it, I remembered my dream. I turned and I almost fell, but then I got my feet again and went super fast. I’ve never had a big wave like that where I didn’t use the rail at all. Just went straight down. It was amazing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, you might have some questions — besides the obvious ones about where, exactly, this world-class surfer’s self-preservation instincts ran off to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first of these being: How do these waves get measured, anyway? After all, it’s not as if Koxa had a mountain-size yardstick and a team of scientists standing out in the lineup with him on that fateful Nov. 8.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here we’ll \u003ca href=\"https://www.surfer.com/features/how-do-you-measure-the-worlds-biggest-waves/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">defer to Surfer Magazine\u003c/a>, whose photo editor, Grant Ellis, has numbered among the Big Wave Award judges. Paraphrasing Ellis, the magazine describes “a crude science, but a science nonetheless”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“It starts with a handful of big-wave statesmen and experts gathering in a room in Huntington Beach, [Calif.], discussing each of the nominated rides at length, and then busting out the trusty ol’ ruler and calipers. Using oversized images of the waves, and the known heights of each surfer, they estimate the [surfer’s] crouching height in the moment the photo was taken, creating a scale that they can then use to determine the overall height of the wave, from trough to lip. And then, bingo — you’ve got a reasonably accurate measurement on a monster wave.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And if you’re wondering why the gentle rollers at your home break — should you be so lucky to live by the beach — look nothing like Nazaré or its fellow famed big-wave brethren, such as \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gS6LJgfR1AM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Northern California’s Mavericks\u003c/a> or Hawaii’s Pe’ahi, \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usi5iMoS-l0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">perhaps better known as Jaws\u003c/a>, NPR’s Scott Neuman was helpful enough to \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2013/01/31/170753700/portugals-monster-the-mechanics-of-a-massive-wave\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">explain back in 2013\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The key at Nazaré, as with several other spots, rests with what’s going on well beneath the wave you see stalking the surface — a deep underwater canyon that concentrates the strength of the waves, then slams them into suddenly shallow waters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So, first you’ve got really deep water,” Micah Sklut, forecaster and founder of \u003ca href=\"https://www.swellinfo.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Swellinfo.com\u003c/a>, told Neuman at the time, “and then as it approaches the shore it gets very shallow, and that enables the waves to climb really, really big all of a sudden.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, Koxa wasn’t the only surfer to win a Big Wave Award on Saturday. Breathtaking rides by several other surfers earned honors as well.

"content": "\u003cp>Facebook announced changes to its content review policy Tuesday, adding an appeals process for removed content and releasing the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/communitystandards#attacks-on-public-figures\">internal guidelines\u003c/a> it relies on to make content determinations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the social media giant has listed a set of publicly available community standards for several years, the latest update includes the more detailed guidelines that content reviewers use internally when deciding whether to allow or remove posts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The updated \u003ca href=\"https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/04/comprehensive-community-standards/\">appeals process \u003c/a>will allow posters of removed photos, videos or posts to contest determinations they feel were wrongly made. Previously, appeals of community standards determinations were allowed only when a Facebook page, group or profile was removed entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook has been hesitant to reveal details of its content review policy in the past. But the company says Tuesday's announcement is part of its promise to \"do better\" and be more transparent about how it decides what stays up and what gets taken down. The changes come just weeks after CEO Mark Zuckerberg was \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/04/10/601268117/facebook-founder-and-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-testifies-on-capitol-hill\">grilled on Capitol Hill\u003c/a> about Facebook's alleged censorship of conservative viewpoints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zuckerberg was asked by multiple lawmakers during his marathon testimony about \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/04/15/602494594/facebook-admits-enforcement-error-in-how-it-handled-content-from-pro-trump-duo\">\"Diamond and Silk,\"\u003c/a> two pro-Trump commentators who claim Facebook intentionally limited their presence on the site because of their political views. Zuckerberg apologized, calling the situation an \"enforcement error\" on Facebook's part, but the controversy raised questions about what type of content Facebook restricts and how it makes those decisions. Diamond and Silk are themselves set to \u003ca href=\"https://judiciary.house.gov/hearing/full-committee-hearing-filtering-practices-of-social-media-platforms/\">testify before Congress\u003c/a> later this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Granular Standards\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The newly released standards are a stark departure from Facebook's prior guidance, which had been crafted to express the company's values and priorities in a way that did not overwhelm readers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've always had a set of community standards that the public can see,\" Facebook Vice President Monika Bickert told NPR's Steve Inskeep, \"but now we're actually explaining how we define those terms for our review teams and how we enforce those policies.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those new explanations are nothing if not comprehensive. They detail dozens of reasons posts can be removed and read more like the product of a team of lawyers than the words of an upstart tech company. The standards outline methods for categorizing content and provide specific definitions for terms like \"hate speech,\" \"terrorism\" and \"threats of violence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People define those things in different ways,\" Bickert said, \"and people who are using Facebook want to know how we define it and I think that's fair.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/605107093/605176194\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some objectionable content is classified into tiers, with Facebook's response matching the severity of the violation.

Previously, appeals of community standards determinations were allowed only when a Facebook page, group or profile was removed entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook has been hesitant to reveal details of its content review policy in the past. But the company says Tuesday's announcement is part of its promise to \"do better\" and be more transparent about how it decides what stays up and what gets taken down. The changes come just weeks after CEO Mark Zuckerberg was \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/04/10/601268117/facebook-founder-and-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-testifies-on-capitol-hill\">grilled on Capitol Hill\u003c/a> about Facebook's alleged censorship of conservative viewpoints.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zuckerberg was asked by multiple lawmakers during his marathon testimony about \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/04/15/602494594/facebook-admits-enforcement-error-in-how-it-handled-content-from-pro-trump-duo\">\"Diamond and Silk,\"\u003c/a> two pro-Trump commentators who claim Facebook intentionally limited their presence on the site because of their political views. Zuckerberg apologized, calling the situation an \"enforcement error\" on Facebook's part, but the controversy raised questions about what type of content Facebook restricts and how it makes those decisions. Diamond and Silk are themselves set to \u003ca href=\"https://judiciary.house.gov/hearing/full-committee-hearing-filtering-practices-of-social-media-platforms/\">testify before Congress\u003c/a> later this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Granular Standards\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The newly released standards are a stark departure from Facebook's prior guidance, which had been crafted to express the company's values and priorities in a way that did not overwhelm readers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The administration said the tariffs were needed to protect domestic sources of the metals, which are vital for national security.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tariffs will help steelmakers compete by allowing them to raise their prices, but companies that \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/02/23/587898827/trump-trade-action-could-boost-steel-and-aluminum-makers-hurt-others-industries\">rely on imported steel products\u003c/a>, such as Pacific Coast Producers, will see their costs rise, says Edward Alden, senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's why tariffs are a risky strategy in a truly global economy,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pacific Coast Producers buys the cans it uses from domestic manufacturers. They are made with steel coated in something called tinplate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. steel manufacturers tend not to sell a lot of tinplate, because it's not very profitable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There's not a great deal of capacity that's dedicated to tinplate steel for food cans,\" says Robert Budway, president of the Can Manufacturers Institute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/603298380/604119838\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, U.S. can makers — who sell more than 20 billion cans a year for food products alone — have to import much of the tinplate they use from places such as Europe and Japan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration has given temporary exemptions to many steel producing countries. Exemptions for Canada and Mexico are contingent on the outcome of ongoing trade negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for now it's unclear how can manufacturers will be affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the tariffs do apply to tinplate, it will almost certainly drive up costs for can-makers, which will be passed on to companies such as Pacific Coast Producers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How much will their costs rise? Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross says the extra expense \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/03/09/592229747/trump-commerce-secretary-says-warnings-about-tariffs-are-overhyped\">will be negligible\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vincent sees things differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He notes that the cost of steel makes up about 20 percent of his company's annual expenses of about $355 million. A 25 percent tariff on steel could thus end up costing the company about $17 million. Its annual profit is about $24 million, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's no guarantee the tariffs will end up costing that much, since the Trump administration could end up exempting some of the countries that now sell tinplate\u003cstrong>.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in a low-margin business, beset by imports from places such as China and a growing consumer preference for fresh produce, even a small increase can hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Vincent points out another irony about the tariffs: Foreign companies that import products such as canned peaches into the United States won't face the same cost increase, because they aren't subject to the tariffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They won't hurt our Chinese competitors at all, because they import a finished good. That's classified as canned peaches. That's not classified as steel. So a steel tariff doesn't apply,\" Vincent says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross says the extra expense \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/03/09/592229747/trump-commerce-secretary-says-warnings-about-tariffs-are-overhyped\">will be negligible\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vincent sees things differently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He notes that the cost of steel makes up about 20 percent of his company's annual expenses of about $355 million. A 25 percent tariff on steel could thus end up costing the company about $17 million. Its annual profit is about $24 million, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's no guarantee the tariffs will end up costing that much, since the Trump administration could end up exempting some of the countries that now sell tinplate\u003cstrong>.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in a low-margin business, beset by imports from places such as China and a growing consumer preference for fresh produce, even a small increase can hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Vincent points out another irony about the tariffs: Foreign companies that import products such as canned peaches into the United States won't face the same cost increase, because they aren't subject to the tariffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They won't hurt our Chinese competitors at all, because they import a finished good.

They are crimes of a monster instead.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suspected chemical attack occurred on April 7 in the Damascus suburb of Douma, which had been held by rebel forces for years in Syria's continuing civil war. Civilians and rebel forces abandoned Douma following the latest attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the days leading up to the U.S. attack, Russia had warned that it would defend its troops in Syria.

Mattis said the number of weapons used was about double those employed in a strike in April 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In that instance, 59 Tomahawk missiles were fired at a Syrian airbase in the western part of the country following a chemical attack blamed on Assad's forces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mattis said he was not aware of any U.S. losses, and added, \"Right now we have no additional attacks planned.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense secretary said on Thursday that he favored a measure response aimed at chemical weapons facilities, and did not want the U.S. to become more deeply involved in a complicated, many-sided conflict.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dunford said the U.S. used its regular communication channels with the Russians to inform them about the U.S. aircraft, but did not warn the Russians about the targets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, said Syria had used chemical weapons at least 50 times since the war broke out in 2011.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/iZ0PA1KnTBE'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/iZ0PA1KnTBE'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The U.S. has about 2,000 troops in northeastern Syria, where they have partnered with Kurdish fighters to dismantle the Islamic State. With the extremist group largely defeated, the president says he supports the withdrawal of U.S. forces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"America does not seek an indefinite presence in Syria,\" he said. \"The United States will be a partner and a friend. But the fate of the region lies in the hands of its own people.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. military officials have said they believe the American forces should remain a while longer to help stabilize the places where ISIS was pushed out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump, meanwhile, also addressed the governments of Iran and Russia, both of which support Assad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I ask what kind of a nation wants to be associated with the mass murder of innocent men, women and children,\" Trump said. \"The nations of the world can be judged by the friends they keep. No nation can succeed in the long run by promoting rogue states, brutal tyrants and murderous dictators.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Referring to Assad, Trump said, \"These are not the actions of a man. They are crimes of a monster instead.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suspected chemical attack occurred on April 7 in the Damascus suburb of Douma, which had been held by rebel forces for years in Syria's continuing civil war. Civilians and rebel forces abandoned Douma following the latest attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the days leading up to the U.S. attack, Russia had warned that it would defend its troops in Syria. This has raised fears of a possible direct clash of U.S. and Russian forces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement late Friday night, the Russian ambassador to the U.S., Anatoly Antonov, said, \"We warned that such actions will not be left without consequences. All responsibility for them rests with Washington, London and Paris.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past year, the Russians have continued to help Assad's regime improve its position in much of the country as it battles various rebel groups. Assad's government controls most of the major cities, which are located in the western part of the country. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.
