  • I'm Carlos.

  • Your March 25th edition of CNN 10.

  • Welcome to the show.

  • A major investigation has ended within the US government.

  • It was called the Russia Investigation.

  • The special counsel investigation or the Muller investigator is led by Robert Mueller Ah, former director of the FBI, who was put in charge of it 22 months ago.

  • His team looked into alleged Russian interference with the 2016 U.

  • S.

  • Presidential election, and part of that was examining whether Donald Trump's campaign illegally coordinated with Russia.

  • Mueller sent his full report to the Justice Department on Friday night, and that department sent a four page summary of it to Congress on Sunday afternoon.

  • It said that while Russia did try to influence the 2016 election something Russia has repeatedly denied, the U.

  • S Special counsel's investigation quote did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the election.

  • Another part of the investigation looked into concerns about possible obstruction of justice.

  • Did President Trump's actions intentionally and illegally interfere with the government carrying out its work?

  • The special counsel says.

  • Quote while this report does not conclude that the president commited a crime.

  • It also does not exonerate him.

  • The Justice Department says the Muller report left it up to the U.

  • S attorney general to decide whether the president's conduct constituted a crime in the U.

  • S.

  • Attorney general and deputy attorney general both concluded that the reports evidence is quote not sufficient to establish that the president commited an obstruction of justice offense.

  • The White House called the report a total and complete exoneration clearance of any wrongdoing for President Trump.

  • But some Democrats say special counselor Muller did not exonerate the president and that the Justice Department summary isn't enough.

  • They want to see the full report in the days ahead.

  • Another issue President Trump has been addressing concerns the Isis terrorist group.

  • We've talked about this a lot since Isis swept to power in 2014.

  • Its name and its mission were the same.

  • Isis stands for Islamic state in Iraq and Syria, something the group wanted, and it once controlled a huge area of land in the region with a population of almost eight million people.

  • Not anymore.

  • On Saturday, the Syrian Democratic Forces, a military group supported by the United States said Isis had been defeated in its last physical stronghold in Syria in a formal ceremony to mark the terrorist groups defeat, the SDF paid tribute to the thousands of forces and fighters it lost in the battle.

  • But it said it would continue to fight against any ISIS members who continued to operate and threaten the region.

  • In 2014 Isis had a presence from the outskirts of Baghdad to Aleppo in western Syria at a time when it seemed that they were unstoppable, sending the armies of Iraq and other in parts of Syria militias running before them.

  • Now they have disappeared as a territorial entity.

  • They are no more.

  • So this is a massive sort of turn of events when you consider the situation just a few years ago.

  • But I think that enthusiasm, even in this part of the world of the region, has been tempered by the realization that they still remain a threat as a terrorist insurgency.

  • There are still frequent attacks by Isis sleeper cells in this part of Syria and also in many parts of Iraq as well.

  • And of course, another problem is that if the regional government here or the government.

  • Iraq don't do a better job at reconstruction at reviving the local economies.

  • You could have a situation developing whereby discontent feeds into the ideology of Isis, and you could have Isis come back perhaps under a different name in a different form.

  • But it's not just a question of defeating a new organization like that militarily.

  • They have to be defeated ideologically and politically, and it's not altogether clear if that can be achieved under the current circumstances.

  • Which of these world capitals is located closest to the equator?

  • Lima, Peru.

  • Brasilia, Brazil.
