Reporter: Your ally Israel has something like genocide in Lebanon. The main issue is stopping this.

It always requires a little bit of give and take. But Trump is committed not just to peace between the U.S. and Iran. Trump is committed to a regional peace.

ANKARA, June 21 (Reuters) - Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan ordered officials on Sunday to resume talks on reopening an Orthodox Christian seminary near Istanbul, an issue raised by U.S. President Donald Trump, who is expected to visit Ankara next month for a NATO summit.

His observation that China “could have sent in an oil ship with six destroyers alongside of it, on each side” but chose restraint, captured the essence of Beijing’s strategic...
