0:00.0 | It's Thursday, April 11, 2024. I'm Albert Moeller and this is the briefing, a daily |
0:10.5 | analysis of news and events from a Christian worldview. |
0:14.0 | We need to understand that there are many issues that deal with global concerns, |
0:17.8 | international context, and yet the primary discussion often has to do with domestic politics that is to say what is going to be the action of the United States government given this challenge in the world scene how does the United States respond to this Given the war in Ukraine after the Russian invasion of February of 2022, |
