to get to india. indians would buy a lot more from afghanistan. that is why it is important to try to work on the india -- pakistan rivalry at the same time. it will just be hard to do that. it is important but hard to do. all of this leads to the conclusion, my conclusion, that we need an active regional -- withinh the mind mind, how do we incentivize a path to a negotiated solution using those other actors that can be useful? none of them -- i think pakistan is the greatest influence on the taliban but together, there can be a mass there that can make a positive difference if they are organized in a way that helps bring a positive impact. one of the questions is iran and how we get engaged and what will they do to mess things up if they don't like what's going on. we need to think that through. i still remember back to the first donor conferences we had andhe fall of 2001 beginning of 2002 on afghanistan. iran was there and he actually wanted to play a constructive role. reasons, theyl were not frie

they send it to india. in india a radiologist will examine it and it comes back to the u.s. the ara, their professional association lobby for legislation that sent those scans have to be signed up in the morning by a board certified u.s. trained radiologists. scott: hal, a response to that? --: i think the radiology not only can be done in india, but now can be done automatically. that is true not just recently, but it has been true for a decade or two. recognizingcases the malignant cell is really pretty straightforward. it can be done by even relatively untrained labor. there are border cases and lots of things where you might want have some of the supervision you were describing, but it can be turned into basically exercising exclusionary power to keep a privileged position. i think that is true. i have often said we would have driverless vehicles, autonomous vehicles on the right now if it were not for the darn human drivers. not to mention the pedestrians that are even worse. you have a controlled environment like a freeway, and expressway, a controlled environment is r

asas then in india ambassador. i was holding my breath because of this very volatile situation and create. however, the demonstration into the candlelight vigil turned out even very peaceful and clean. demonstrators swept the streets after their demonstrations. more importantly, the procedures with our legislative branch and the decision of our constitutional court turned out in a very legal and orderly manner. the election was held it may and we had a fresh, new start. i am proud to say this was the victory and triumph of the rule our ally,ch came from the united states. this of course would not be the end of the story. the remaining part of this how the newll be government will accommodate various endeavors and voices of the people on the street. without fully taking them to populist parties. the second challenge lies in the socioeconomic area. before i went to india, i had teaching university international relations and getting along with young students. i was surprised to know how frustrated they are. theirworr

what is the future of india in the security council relationship? haley: i think the security council forum is still being talked about and i know it is something india wants. many other countries wanted, as well, so, we will have to wait and see. will the sanctions work toward north korea? ambassador haley: you have to look at how much has been cut off. they are getting ready to feel 90% of their exports going away. 30% of their oil. imagine what that would do to the united states. was saying, it's a full-scale economic blockaded that is a suffocating the state and the people. this is dramatic. peru has dropped ties. thailand has dropped ties. we are seeing so many, just get rid of the ambassadors or the trade that they're doing. there is no way that north korea does not feel this. now, how they choose to respond, this is totally in their hands as to how they respond. [yelling] >> i am wondering if you could talk in any more detail now, will president trump be sending direct messages about iran and north korea in his speech? and ambassador haley, o

i was amazed because when you speak to, particularly the pakistanis, and india, there is -- in india, there was a paranoia that is hard to understand, but it is there. anytime we invite pakistan and afghanistan, that triggers of muscle memory reflects from the pakistanis. we are trying to get the indians to be more active, not in terms of military, but in economic capacity building or whatever. that pushes hard against the pakistanis cooperation. i think what we've done with the increased forces, particularly with the air forces, is that we've given the opportunity for the afghan government to reassert control over the areas where the taliban has taken. we still haven't got a clear policy on what specific steps were going to take in pakistan. carrots and sticks to get them ,o disengage from the haqqani to close down their safe havens. i think that long-term, it's been difficult to defeat -- when they have a safe haven. pakistan has been a safe haven for 16 years. a partial response to a very good question, and were puzzling it through. -- and we are puzzling it through. senator, thank

india doesn't want us to start bombing. there you go. there is a lot of nuclear nations we are dealing with, and diplomacy is the only way. war.n, war begets more like someone else said, start talking to your children. 25,000, about those 30,000 soldiers, americans, what was it? not the casualty -- collateral damage that was used. this is serious stuff. that is all i have to say. thank you, c-span. i h ope -- hope that something happens, not war. host: thank you. with is hosting a meeting the, russia, india, and south africa. the south china post, the chinese government strongly condemning what happened in north korea, and the statement from the chinese government saying it will certainly react in some form to what happened overnight. the test of a hydrogen bomb that is eight times more powerful than the bomb we used in hiroshima. john is joining us from florida, independent line. good morning. caller: good morning. i will try to make this quick. people in america, my goodness, i don't know. since the first gulf war, we will start there.

the regional powers, india cannot be ignored, australia cannot be ignored also. another country, indonesia which is becoming more of a seapower also the u.k. which has business in the middle east. these are countries that agree with us. the importance of the world the free and open oceans. as far as north korea's concerned, is geographical issue between our two countries. the different dimension of how we can deter north korea and how we can maintain the status quo vis-À-vis north korea as we talked about the cooperation between the united states, japan and south korea but japan and south korea have a common geographical issue. we would work with japan and south korea can work more effectively together and we can use her geographical to our advantage. if you look at defense terms, deterring north korea requires our three countries work together and as was said, i agree with what you had to say. and that is if a country wants to change the status quo through power, we need to work together with united states and south korea are the united states and australia in

we entered an agreement with several countries like india and china, is a couple of examples, who spew carbon into the atmosphere. of should we bear the brunt the economic impact from this climate change agreement, while they are allowed to continue going on shooting carbon into the atmosphere. i'm not sure how impactful skeptics, anyway, i'm a them up but it seems to me like we're the ones who pay the penalty and they get to continue on doing things that are the most dangerous according to all of the experts, they're doing the things that are the most dangerous to the environment. thank you. >> the united states is either the second or third largest creator of carbon, i don't know if india has passed us yet. we are also one of the major contributors to greenhous gases. as one of the major contributors and leaders of the global community, we have a responsibility and obligation, not the international community, but to ourselves and our kids to take action. on the question of economic impact, sure there are parts of the american economy there will undoubtedly be affected by the carbonat

they still live in india because of our broken immigration system i've never been able to bring them here. it took me 17 years to get my citizenship. anyone who thinks it is an easy process, let me give you a little bit of education about how tough it is even when you come here with documents. it's incredibly difficult. and i'm just so honored and grateful to the united states of america for taking me in and for taking in so many people and for being something that i really think no other country in the world is, this beacon of hope and opportunity for people around the world. host: went to college at age 16. georgetown university. got your b.a. there. went on to get an m.b.a. from northwestern university. guest: yes. host: at what age did you graduate with a masters? guest: let's see. i must have been about 24 because right after my b.a. i actually went to work in finance and in the private sector and then went and got my m.b.a. and then decided i wanted to devote my life to social justice and so i went to work for nonprofits after that and then went to the state senate a couple yea

every great movement, if you think about gandhi in india, it started with his understanding of india's story and his own story. in south africa where he was discriminated against, and recognizing there were traditions and myths and the power in those stories that ended up driving out the most powerful empire on earth. it was not guns. increasingly, that will be the case, and certainly that will be the case if we want to move forward with sustainable goals we want. we have to tell a story not only to big donors or politicians, but also to people here in the united states who feel, i have my own problems, why should i worry about somebody on the other side of the world. bill: when we got into philanthropy, we were stunned at the progress. we had no idea. it is kind of amazing, if you ask very well educated people, what has happened with vaccinations, what has happened with hiv, they do not know the positive stories. the news is always going to focus on the setbacks, because that is what happened that day. progress does not fit that paradigm. sometimes some of the material we create is ta

. >> what is the future of india in this context? >> i think security council reform is still being talked about. we will have to wait and see. >> will sanctions work towards north korea?> >> you have to work at how much has been cut off. they are already starting to feel it but they are going to feel 90% of their exports going away. oil, i what- there that would do to the united states. toimagine what that would do united states. they are suffocating their people. this is dramatic. you are looking at many people dropping ties. the of seen so many people get rid of investors or their trade. there's no way north korea doesn't feel this. how they treat the response is totally in their hand. one more question. >> i was wondering, we talked a little bit about the president -- delivering on tuesday. i wondered if you could talk anymore -- i'm sure we will get more details, but will have direct messages about iran and north korea? -- nikki haley, i wanted to ask you about u.n. funding no reform is another question, but as a candidate, skep

n am 103 air india,ots of times. but not a lot talked into being turned into cruise misles. that was the innovation of the part of al qaeda and today remains a threat. aircraft are tier 1 target, highly visible,he impact on the economy and on the psyche and on the moral of the country would have been profound if they were to trike again that way. host: because now do you think that could be repeated? guest: it would be ry diicult to get four inviduals on board to take over the aircraft because of the doors on the cock pit. getting a bomb on board we've seen that's possible. we saw in egypt with the aircraft, in solia, in other placeses where that has happened. in raugs it has happened a couple o times. so getting individuals to take over the aircraft to then use it as a crse missile. that seemso me near impossible. but getting in, how much is that difficult? host: go ahead caller: thank you for answering my cal i'm callingbout this 9/11 situation. it's feasie for the govement to do this. member operation northwood, the kennedy administration. linden b. johnson. is 9/11 thg a

the united states, followed by china, india, the philippines, indonesia have experienced the most disasters since 1995, more than 1600, or one every five days. by sending solidarity with the people of the caribbean and the united states, we have just suffered through the august lesson category five storm ever recorded, and maria is already on its way. we should not link any single weather event with climate are cleart scientists that such extreme weather is precisely what their models predict will be the new normal of a warming world. we have had to update our language describe what is happening. we now talk of mega-hurricanes, superstorms. it is time to get off of the path of suicidal emissions. we know enough today to enact historic agreements. cities forhose setting bold targets, and i welcomed the initiative's of thousands of private enterprises on a clean, green future. feel that green business is good business. the falling cost every nobles is one of the most encouraging stories on the planet today. so is the growing evidence -- the falling cost of renewables is one of the most encour

senator ernst: well, we do have leverage with india as well, using india to leverage pakistan. pakistan has provided an open border for terrorists and we have to stop that. the united states has provided different types of military supports for pakistan in the past, different types of equipment. we don't offer that anymore. they need to understand that you need to be good partners with us in combatting terrorism or we will not be good partners to you in enhancing your military structure. ms. easton: we've danced around that for years, so what are the prospects that that will actually change? senator ernst: i think it's actually coming to a head and it needs to change and again, those are the discussions that we have have as we work on a comprehensive strategy for afghanistan, and part of that was using other countries in the region as leverage against pakistan so that they do start adhering to what we need them to adhere to, closing off the closing off the borders, stopping the support for the terrorist organization. it has to happen. tough love. ms. easton: another good topic

one, what is the future of india and the united nations membership and security council? because when prime minister modi visited the white house he brought up this issue with president trump. ambassador haley: well, i think that security council reform is still being talked about, and i know that it's something that india wants. many other countries want it as well. so we'll have to wait and see. reporter: do you have any indications right now that sanctions will work towards north korea? ambassador haley: you have to look at how much has been cut off. they've already started to feel it, but they're getting ready to feel 90% of their exports going away; 30% of their oil. imagine what that would do to the united states if it was there. and if you look at what -- i was looking at what north korea was saying. they said it was a full-scale economic blockade, suffocating its state and its people. this is dramatic. this is something -- and not only is it dramatic, but you're looking at -- peru has dropped ties. thailand has dropped ties. we're seeing so many just kind of get r

we imagined the endless possibilities for india, for israel, for all of humanity. in the past year, israel has hosted so many world leaders, and i had the honor of representing my country on six different continents. one year, six continents. i went to africa, where i saw israeli innovators increasing crop yields, turning air into water, fighting aids. i went to asia, where we deepened our relations with china and with singapore and expanded our cooperation with our muslim friends in azerbaijan and kazakhstan. i went to europe, where in london and paris, saloniki and budapest, we enhanced our security and economic ties. i went to australia, becoming the first israeli prime minister to visit our great allies down under, and just last week, i went to south america, visiting argentina and colombia, and then i went on to mexico, becoming, if you can believe it, the first israeli prime minister ever to visit latin america. after 70 years, the world is embracing israel, and israel is embracing the world.

we now have a new debate on what the president is saying and how the nfl and india have responded. guest: let's start with the young man from san francisco. the president has always been very passionate in terms of how he feels about his veterans. campaign heg his raised $5 million for veterans. he is very passionate. this is the way i look at it. i happen to know quite a few nfl players. and whensome dialogue you work for someone or take a job, you read the terms and conditions. advocateirst amendment . i love the fact that we can go out and disagree or agree in this country. someone or sayor i'm going to go play for the when a falcons, every time we walk on the field come you do -- these are the things we do. areefore, you enter -- you an employee to the employer. i think it is unfair for one whoon out of the majority want to honor the flog, the flag represents all believers and nonbelievers. that is what makes the flag so awesome and i'm a little biased. my father was a to tour vietnam vet. seven of my go back to world war i. i have a rich history of our military and with the fl

the capacity of existing refineries have been expanded around the world being built in india and china and asia. that is the global supply. you're trying to imagine, this gasoline and diesel and crude, more and more it is a global market. it flows back and forth wherever it is needed. i think your other questions i probably cannot answer with as much confidence. the newsf mower is director for global platts. thank you for your time. guest: thank you. talk about efforts to close the gender gap in technology. you won't want to miss this. stay with us. ♪ >> when you think about a one day festival, the national book festival and you have over 100 authors from children's authors, illustrators, graphic novelist, 100,000 people come in and celebrate books and reading. you can't have a better time. prejudiced because i am a librarian but i have to tell you, any reader who wants to get inspired, the book festival is the perfect place. coveragell-day beginning today with featured authors including david mccullough and thomas friedman. former secretary of state, condoleezza rice. festival, live

it is easy to do, if you look at china and india. making a thousand dollars per year. communism.ted this and ared moving towards a free market and they are making $10,000 per year. that is to a half-million people all children of god. somehow no one wants to report that. that is the biggest human welfare gain. no reporting on that and nothing. that is the market. we did it now the rest of the basicis giving them some health care. it is a miracle we need to break about what the free market can do if we would only let them work. host: for democrats absolutely. let's talk about houston, let's talk about florida, let's talk about puerto rico, let's talk about the health care system, where all of the health care companies are poor you out of all the different counties. that is privatization. our health care should not be privatized and we should not trust a person in the white house who is a failed businessman and has gone bankrupt four times and won't show taxes. to disagree with you. it is not privatization. everything happening right now to this day, we have not changed

i heard news reports this nepalg that the floods in , india, and other places, we are focused on harvey, 1300 lives this week and flooding. i do not know the answer, steve. i'm sure there are those who would have strong opinions. host: (202)-748-8000 in the eastern and central time zones. (202)-748-8001 for those of you out west. we have a line set aside for texas and louisiana residents. let me ask about medicare and medicaid. had you ensure those funds continue to flow? guest: i have less worry about medicaid and medicare being able to do its job to pay. about,am more concerned and what people in houston and surrounding areas are concerned about, is are there places to get care? in katrina, the hospitals and clinics were rendered inoperable. the first job is to make certain there are places people can seek care, even if they are original stations with that would occur are destroyed. orleans,going into new taking $100 million from taxpayers to deploy into that infrastructure. i might add in the situation with katrina, over time, i think improving effect of the situation. also offerters

last time i read, they were doing most of that work in india. what is the status of research and development? much happening in the u.s. right now. it is something people are looking at. your point about the idea that this is an international field is important. i don't know plans right now to do that kind of work in the united states. it could be something i missed in my research. host: you told me during the break you have been working on this book for a year. what in the course of writing and researching it really surprised you? guest: the notion of anthropogenic activity. as a species we are doing so much to change the landscape. thatow as oceans warm hurricanes become larger and more unpredictable. we see things like the incredible rainfall in houston. the idea of induced seismicity and as we start to understand the degree to which we can create earthquakes and some of which are capable of doing damage, that changes everything. from building codes to emergency management plans to the way which we respond to our own environments. it is comin

china passed us in the have to confess i do not know india passed us or not. we are also one of the major contributors to greenhouse gases, and it think we, therefore, as one of the major contributors and leaders of the global community, we have a responsibility and obligation, not to the international community, but our kids and ourselves, to take action. on the question of economic impacts, sure, there are parts of the american economy that will undoubtedly be affected by d carbon icing our system. on the other side of things, the parts of our economy that will benefit enormously from taking steps to address and move from a carbon intensive economy to one that relies on the sources of energy. there is no question that the environmental impacts of things like renewable energy are far lower and at this point, the economics of those energy sources are pretty competitive with traditional hydrocarbon and there is also no question that the future is going to be increasingly important, not just as a source of energy but economic competitiveness. from a policy and e

a quarter of what china has, what india has. we have to compete with them. we have to get bang for the buck. we have to develop our people and get serious about this. we cannot use them as ponds for political gain. steve: how do we get there? what is the role of washington and government? dr. carson: they have to work together. you have seen a coordinated effort with hurricane harvey and irma. we have to have the same seriousness when we think about education that we will provide for our children. and when we think about the development of our people. we have a lot of people who could be developed. i look at the fact we have 5% of population,world but 25% of the inmates. think about all that lost potential. a lot of those people who end up in the penal system, they grew up in a horrible environment. probably with no authority figure in their lives. the first authority figure they run into is a policeman, in a case it doesn't work out and they end up in this situation that is not nurturing. we need to spend time thinking about, are there things we can do to e

then they went to india and china. this kind of capitalism isn't working. it doesn't mean capitalism isn't working it just means we are doing it. take the victory from trump. the scariest thing for me is when he says everybody will have a job. we will be working for less than walmart wages while we have our ovens and steel. i do not need that kind of authoritarian capitalism to tell me what to do. host: thank you for the call to christopher a democrat saying take the win. president trump does not let himself be outsmarted in negotiating daca. from theur points democratic side are provocative and they reflect some of the things i have been picking up in might reporting. i took a trip to northeastern pennsylvania and spent time with bob casey was up for reelection next year. i was struct that as he was talking about looking for a deal with president trump and the way that losey and schumer have, but he was echoing president trump on trade. they realize there is a populist streak and frustration with the loss of u.s. manufacturing and as much as they are attac
