[00:03:59] stipulated in Article I of compared to what happened with the break, we begin this news hour.
[00:04:17] and to the esteemed guests. In
[00:04:21] Welcome back. The war for the administration
[00:04:23] was unprecedented in of US President Donald Trump is no longer a military
[00:04:26] battle abroad, but an open
[00:04:30] political test at home. After the Republicans
[00:04:33] lost control of Congress and the House,
[00:04:36] the repercussions of the war turned into a crisis that threatens
[00:04:40] President Trump's influence. He admits that the conflict
[00:04:43] contributed to the electoral defeat, but he
[00:04:46] what touched holds firm to his decision and confirms that he
[00:04:49] was right. In the halls
[00:04:52] for example, if he were to now, you of the White House, questions are escalating about who misled the president and who
[00:04:55] will bear the cost of the political reckoning. As for
[00:04:59] the Democrats, they are preparing to open the administration's
[00:05:01] files and transform the parliamentary majority into
[00:05:05] a platform for oversight and investigation, while
[00:05:07] Trump threatens to expand the use of his powers
[00:05:11] to achieve a strategic
[00:05:20] victory that threatens his political legacy and redraws
[00:05:23] the future of the Republican Party.
[00:05:46] The Republican loss in the US midterm elections seems
[00:05:50] not the end of an electoral phase, but the beginning
[00:05:53] of an open political confrontation where
[00:05:56] war, election, and influence calculations intersect
[00:06:00] amid anticipation of the decision that will determine
[00:06:03] the course of the next phase. Democrats regained
[00:06:06] control of the House and Senate, and Republicans began searching for the reasons
[00:06:09] for the defeat and those responsible for it. While a number
[00:06:13] of those close to US President Donald Trump believe that the war that has been going
[00:06:16] on for months and the rise in energy prices contributed
[00:06:21] the party, Trump admits that the war
[00:06:24] with Iran was one of the factors that affected the election
[00:06:27] results. However, at the same time, he does not back down
[00:06:31] from his decision. In an interview with Fox News and another with
[00:06:35] the Wall Street Journal, Trump said that the war
[00:06:38] contributed to the Republican loss, but he
[00:06:41] stressed that he made the right decision and that he would
[00:06:45] repeat it despite the continued fighting and the decline
[00:06:48] in his popularity among Americans. According to what
[00:06:51] CNN reported from an advisor
[00:06:54] to the president, Trump feels that he
[00:06:57] was misled about the war and believes that someone
[00:07:00] should pay the price for that. These statements
[00:07:04] put the administration before the possibility of rearranging responsibilities within
[00:07:08] the US president's team at a time
[00:07:11] when attention is turning to the Secretary of Defense, who was one of the most prominent
[00:07:15] supporters of the military operation. As for Congress,
[00:07:18] Democrats are preparing to use their new
[00:07:21] majority to open oversight investigations that will affect the administration's
[00:07:25] performance and individuals from Trump's inner circle. Reports indicate
[00:07:29] that Democratic members have begun procedures to preserve
[00:07:32] documents in preparation for investigations that may include
[00:07:35] war decisions, the management of the Iranian file, and the political
[00:07:39] and economic repercussions of the conflict. In Tehran,
[00:07:43] the results were met with relief, and Iranian Parliament Speaker
[00:07:46] Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf considered
[00:07:49] that American voters sent a message rejecting
[00:07:52] the war. With the American-Iranian war
[00:07:55] entering its ninth month, the most difficult
[00:07:58] question remains: Will Trump choose de-escalation and a return
[00:08:01] to negotiations, or will he go for a new military
[00:08:05] operation to prove his strength? The Republican
[00:08:10] not give the president a new
[00:08:13] not prevent him, according to experts' estimates, from using
[00:08:16] his military and executive powers before
[00:08:19] the new Congress
[00:08:21] convenes.
[00:08:24] Welcome back, dear viewers. So this hour will be about
[00:08:27] the developments after the American elections and the resounding
[00:08:32] the American corridors
[00:08:34] with a majority
[00:08:36] of Senate seats and also the House of Representatives. Joining
[00:08:40] me in this regard is Khaled Jamal Al-Nasiri, an international relations expert from
[00:08:43] Istanbul, as well as Professor Maysara Bakour, a political
[00:08:46] analyst and human rights activist from Berlin, and Professor Wajdan Abdel
[00:08:51] Iranian affairs and Middle East issues from London. Welcome,
[00:08:55] my guests, to this hour. I will start with you, Professor
[00:08:58] Khaled. The discussion initially is about these elections
[00:09:02] that have turned and changed
[00:09:05] the reality within the United States, and a majority for the blue now
[00:09:10] the Republicans. Initially, the message
[00:09:13] that the American voter sent through the ballot boxes
[00:09:16] to the American government
[00:09:19] and the change of face from Republican to
[00:09:22] Democrat.
[00:09:24] Yes, first of all, a good greeting to you, the Syrian News Channel,
[00:09:30] fact, we are facing a turning point that
[00:09:35] the past, and this is with the Democrats sweeping the largest
[00:09:38] seats and controlling both the House and Senate. This
[00:09:42] is a slap in the face to US President Donald Trump in this
[00:09:46] particular crisis, and he is fighting a big war,
[00:09:49] whether internal or external, related to the regional situation
[00:09:53] and the situation of his war with Iran and his coordination with
[00:09:56] Israel. The direction of the American street,
[00:10:00] since the beginning of the war, was clear: it was against
[00:10:03] the war, against the decisions of US President Donald Trump's
[00:10:06] recent tax law, a law also related
[00:10:09] to law enforcement forces and arbitrary
[00:10:13] restrictions and harassment. There are many internal American
[00:10:16] issues, as J.D. Vance also
[00:10:19] mentioned in a tweet a few hours ago. He said that
[00:10:23] there are fundamental flaws
[00:10:26] for the reason that the Republicans were not elected,
[00:10:30] and this is what put Americans before three points: the state of the domestic
[00:10:34] economy, the rise in oil prices,
[00:10:37] and the ongoing war between America
[00:10:41] and Iran. President Trump always used a clear
[00:10:44] method at the beginning of the war, trying to win over the street, and this method
[00:10:48] is an attempt to give legitimacy to the war
[00:10:52] by saying that Iran threatens America, threatening
[00:10:55] its national security. Therefore, he used this slogan for a certain
[00:10:58] period. He went to greater
[00:11:02] dimensions by re-coordinating the regional
[00:11:05] situation in the region and re-structuring
[00:11:08] the defense situation, especially with the Gulf
[00:11:11] states, the allied states. But
[00:11:15] in the end, he was met
[00:11:18] domestic backlash and lost the midterm elections.
[00:11:21] He is now trying to use the veto, his last
[00:11:25] powers, his last decisions, by continuing as
[00:11:28] president through his work on the war issue and also
[00:11:32] re-activating the idea that Iran still threatens the United States
[00:11:35] and its interests, especially since Iran is still threatening
[00:11:39] the Strait of Hormuz, American interests, European
[00:11:43] Union interests. Today, there are also some
[00:11:45] problems that occurred in some airports in
[00:11:49] There is a real
[00:11:52] problem that the president is suffering from.
[00:11:55] But now the biggest challenge is
[00:11:58] whether President Trump will continue his war
[00:12:02] on Iran. If he does not strike Iran now or
[00:12:06] does not put an end to the Iranian regime,
[00:12:08] then he will lose personally,
[00:12:12] and the prestige of America, which President
[00:12:15] Trump was boasting about, saying "Let's make America
[00:12:18] great again," will also be lost. And this
[00:12:21] may not directly apply to what is happening now between the Republicans
[00:12:25] and Democrats. Yes, let me also turn to my guest, Professor Maysara
[00:12:29] Bakour, political analyst and human rights activist. Professor Maysara, what comes after
[00:12:33] these elections is not like what came before, especially in American foreign
[00:12:38] the United States work to change
[00:12:41] this policy,
[00:12:44] or will it continue with it as it
[00:12:47] was before the elections?
[00:12:52] and with my colleagues. First,
[00:12:55] this is not an anomaly in American politics, and it's not the first time,
[00:12:59] and it won't be the last. At least this has happened three
[00:13:02] times throughout American history.
[00:13:05] I count three times, and we
[00:13:09] had a research paper at the Arab-European Center for Studies on this point
[00:13:13] and the president's powers. Therefore, the situation
[00:13:15] is not as bleak as some portray it.
[00:13:19] The President of the United States of America has powers,
[00:13:22] and there are overlapping powers between
[00:13:26] the Senate and Congress, with its two chambers, the Senate
[00:13:29] and the House of Representatives. The President of the United States of America has
[00:13:33] the power to be the Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Armed Forces. He is the one who approves foreign
[00:13:37] policies. He is the one who makes agreements
[00:13:40] and treaties and everything. He can now impose
[00:13:43] sanctions on countries, and he can impose
[00:13:47] tariffs on countries, and he can wage wars
[00:13:51] for a month on countries. Therefore, most of the powers still
[00:13:57] But isn't it usually the case that there are preliminary approvals
[00:14:01] from the House and Congress until it reaches the president in the end for approval or
[00:14:05] rejection? No, here we are confusing two things: the president's
[00:14:09] powers and the powers of the House and Congress. I told you I
[00:14:12] conducted a study of about 73
[00:14:15] topic
[00:14:18] the center.
[00:14:20] The president's powers are specific powers
[00:14:24] the US Constitution, Article I and Article II,
[00:14:27] and the amendments to the War Powers Act of 1973. He has
[00:14:31] specific powers and can administer the country through executive
[00:14:35] orders or executive orders. You recall that by
[00:14:38] executive order, he canceled sanctions on Syria on one
[00:14:42] occasion, and the White House has the power to impose
[00:14:45] its own sanctions, apart from the House of Representatives, apart from the Treasury, apart
[00:14:49] from everything. And he can manage all his ministries and determine
[00:14:52] their policies, the dependent government.
[00:15:00] Iran after these elections, as President Donald
[00:15:03] Trump had stated before the elections began,
[00:15:07] certainly. But let me finish in 30
[00:15:10] seconds. The House of Representatives, you mentioned a very important
[00:15:13] point, that the president,
[00:15:17] mentioned in the report who will pay the price? Will the Secretary of Defense
[00:15:20] pay the price, who misled the American president, or is there a Central Command commander,
[00:15:24] I think, Tabler or something, he was more dangerous to Trump than
[00:15:28] that? Therefore, if he dismissed the prime minister now,
[00:15:31] the president, the minister of defense, and wanted to appoint
[00:15:35] a new minister of defense, he would nominate
[00:15:38] a minister of defense to the Senate, and the Senate would accept
[00:15:41] or reject. Here he is controlled by them. He needs a budget and funding. The Senate
[00:15:45] and the House of Representatives control these decisions. He sends them
[00:15:48] decisions. Of course, speaking of President Trump, they
[00:15:52] also have a policy called the "drawer policy." That is, the decision comes to President
[00:15:56] Trump, and he puts it on his desk and says neither yes nor no.
[00:16:00] If he says yes or no, or says no and returns it, they can
[00:16:03] do something within 20 days. But if he puts it on his table
[00:16:07] and doesn't respond to it, then he freezes their powers as well. So he also has
[00:16:11] the veto. I mean, they can obstruct him, and he can
[00:16:14] obstruct them. And he called himself yesterday Mr.
[00:16:18] Veto. Now, the wounded
[00:16:21] Trump, the wounded wolf,
[00:16:25] needs to present something for his historical legacy, for
[00:16:28] his narcissism, Trump the narcissist, and for the public
[00:16:31] love, which will enter the elections in about a year from now. He will
[00:16:34] enter in two years, but the primary elections within the party begin in a year or
[00:16:38] a year and a half from now. What will he do? He has three files
[00:16:41] now on the international scene: the Gaza file,
[00:16:45] and I don't think he will do anything with the Gaza file, and the Ukraine file and his friend
[00:16:48] Putin, and the Iran file. I think he will start with the Iran
[00:16:52] file. By the way, you mentioned in the speech
[00:16:55] or in the report that
[00:16:58] American voters punished Trump for the war. This is not
[00:17:02] accurate. They did not punish him for the war. They punished
[00:17:05] him for the results of the war. He Professor Maysara, you didn't give
[00:17:09] me a direct answer to the main question. Will the external
[00:17:12] approach of the US
[00:17:16] with this change in the internal structure
[00:17:19] of the government? I mean, the House and Senate are no longer entirely Republican,
[00:17:22] but rather Democratic, and there is a fundamental difference between the
[00:17:26] ideas of Democrats and Republicans in domestic or foreign relations
[00:17:29] of the United States.
[00:17:32] This goes back to Trump's personality and Trump's psychology.
[00:17:35] Why did I separate, I mean, I separated the president's
[00:17:39] powers and the powers of the House
[00:17:43] the war with Iran. Why did I say now that he is the wounded wolf?
[00:17:47] A wounded wolf may start here, you go into
[00:17:50] predictions, you go into predictions about
[00:17:54] who will be able to prevail in any decision, if President
[00:17:57] Trump will be able to ally with the defeated Trump
[00:18:01] and Netanyahu. I will return to talk about Trump and Netanyahu in foreign
[00:18:04] relations, especially after the American announcements following these
[00:18:08] elections. Let me turn to my guest, Professor Wajdan Abdel Rahman.
[00:18:11] Professor Wajdan, you specialize in Iranian affairs and Middle Eastern
[00:18:15] issues. The most important question now, and everyone is looking forward to
[00:18:19] the issue of continuing the war on Iran, will Trump's
[00:18:23] government continue this war, especially since
[00:18:26] J.D. Vance, when he announced that
[00:18:29] the loss for the Republicans, said one of the reasons was the war we waged on
[00:18:35] First of all, my greetings to you, Professor Rama, and to your two esteemed
[00:18:39] guests. Despite the words of J.D.
[00:18:42] Vance, who is also
[00:18:46] statement, because he is looking forward
[00:18:49] to the next Republican
[00:18:53] elections in the United States of America, and as
[00:18:56] Vice President
[00:18:58] of the Republican Party, he will be
[00:19:01] the Republican nominee.
[00:19:04] He has started to feel or
[00:19:07] become certain that the living conditions
[00:19:11] of citizens are very important, and war is
[00:19:15] Therefore, he, it seems, has already started
[00:19:19] his election campaign
[00:19:23] to draw the American voter
[00:19:26] to his side. War is undoubtedly one of these
[00:19:29] factors, but the reluctance
[00:19:32] vote for the Republicans is due to the
[00:19:36] causes of the war, not the war itself, in addition to some policies that
[00:19:40] Trump adopted regarding
[00:19:43] the issue of asylum
[00:19:47] and also domestic policies.
[00:19:50] These are what caused several factors. Will
[00:19:54] this statement be enough? Will J.D. Vance's
[00:19:57] statement be enough for
[00:20:00] Americans to go to the polls for the Republicans
[00:20:04] again in the next elections, especially since
[00:20:08] they, I mean, went to the other
[00:20:11] camp? I mean, Republicans went and voted for Democrats during these
[00:20:14] elections. They voted
[00:20:18] for Democrats
[00:20:21] because the living
[00:20:25] conditions of citizens directly
[00:20:28] was very important. So they voted for
[00:20:31] their economic interests, for the interests of the citizen himself.
[00:20:35] And these elections,
[00:20:38] the legislative elections, are completely different
[00:20:41] from presidential elections. When
[00:20:44] there is an election between a Democrat
[00:20:48] for the presidency.
[00:20:52] And a Republican, there is no doubt that the Republican current will vote
[00:20:56] completely differently from
[00:20:58] the legislative
[00:21:00] elections. Regarding your
[00:21:03] question, that
[00:21:06] Trump indeed
[00:21:10] suffered a loss
[00:21:12] due to the Iranian-American war, but he
[00:21:16] is not the kind of person
[00:21:20] who accepts defeat.
[00:21:23] Therefore, we will see a reaction,
[00:21:27] as our colleague
[00:21:30] described him as the wounded wolf. Indeed,
[00:21:33] we will see an American reaction
[00:21:37] Iranian regime, especially if
[00:21:40] the regime does not respond and does not seize
[00:21:44] this opportunity and grants some concessions
[00:21:48] in this magnitude during the coming period, given that a response
[00:21:52] is expected, I mean, the American response in all cases. The American
[00:21:55] response this time will be costly for the Iranian regime
[00:21:59] to a great extent. It will not only target nuclear
[00:22:03] and military facilities and missile
[00:22:05] stockpiles or their production and drones, but this
[00:22:09] time it will target infrastructure, including petrochemicals
[00:22:12] in Iran, especially
[00:22:15] South Pars
[00:22:18] and also Mahshahr.
[00:22:20] And these two sites, each site
[00:22:24] has more than 15 partners in the same
[00:22:27] location, will be targeted, which
[00:22:30] electricity, water,
[00:22:33] and also the materials that Iran
[00:22:36] needs domestically. Bridges
[00:22:39] and railways will be targeted,
[00:22:43] and even fuel
[00:22:46] depots, which will cause a great
[00:22:48] Iran. And as Iran sought
[00:22:51] to pressure Trump through the American street
[00:22:55] or the American people, Trump will also
[00:22:58] pressure the Iranian regime through these targets
[00:23:01] through the street. Meaning that when
[00:23:05] this large infrastructure is targeted,
[00:23:08] there is no doubt that
[00:23:11] currently suffering
[00:23:15] the effects of the war, inflation,
[00:23:18] and the collapse of the Iranian currency. And we are witnessing
[00:23:22] repeated protests. If someone persuades President
[00:23:25] Trump and his government not to launch a strike and return
[00:23:28] to negotiations again, since all of them
[00:23:32] are projections and probabilities whose form
[00:23:35] has not yet become clear. Well, let me turn to my guest, Professor Khaled from
[00:23:38] Istanbul. The discussion about the American elections
[00:23:42] is strongly linked to what is happening in Gaza, as American support
[00:23:46] for Israel stopped before these elections through President
[00:23:49] Trump's announcement. The current Israeli government was also shocked
[00:23:52] that this support had simply
[00:23:55] stopped. To what extent will the results of these
[00:23:59] elections also affect American-Israeli relations and Trump's
[00:24:02] return to the political scene in Israel
[00:24:05] and the region?
[00:24:08] Undoubtedly, it will be clear that the Israeli-American
[00:24:11] link with the Republicans is clear, at least with
[00:24:16] the United States of America. Now, Israel's
[00:24:20] situation with America
[00:24:23] the elections. Let's not forget that there is
[00:24:26] a huge Jewish community in the United States of America, whose numbers
[00:24:30] are estimated in the millions, and it also
[00:24:33] results, it lost to the Democrats. Yes,
[00:24:37] yes, I am absolutely certain there is a great
[00:24:41] tension, there is anger in the American street in
[00:24:44] general. I mean, there are those who support the Republicans who went
[00:24:48] out of spite and supported the Democrats for the reasons that
[00:24:52] have recently emerged in the United States of America. So there is a disparity
[00:24:56] between voters and between Trump supporters and Democratic
[00:24:59] supporters. I mean, this is clear, but these timings that
[00:25:03] Trump set may also put him in an awkward position regarding his commitments with
[00:25:06] Israel and full support
[00:25:09] for Israel. This may also change the balance of the relationship between
[00:25:13] Netanyahu and Trump, especially since Netanyahu is also
[00:25:15] facing an electoral crisis.
[00:25:20] The ongoing crises in Israel and how far
[00:25:23] they have reached. So, generally, the relations between
[00:25:26] Israel and America will be greatly affected, which will also
[00:25:29] push US President Trump to other decisions that
[00:25:33] may also lead to other issues. There is diplomatic
[00:25:36] support, there is moral support, developmental support, there is support in
[00:25:40] all fields. Now, Israel
[00:25:43] at this time, which considers that Iran
[00:25:46] is a threat, a threat, I mean, to the existence
[00:25:50] of Israel as a state, and what Israeli politicians,
[00:25:53] led by Benjamin Netanyahu, always talk about. This comes
[00:25:57] at this time to be a disappointment for Israelis who
[00:26:00] defended the Republic. And built relations that might be
[00:26:04] different from before, especially with Trump and the promises that Trump
[00:26:07] gave. This may create
[00:26:11] a rift between Netanyahu and Trump and between the two parties as well,
[00:26:15] and also cause domestic problems at the level that
[00:26:17] the United States of America under Trump pledged
[00:26:21] to equip Israel with modern missiles, modern
[00:26:24] aircraft, everything related to military support. And at this time, it
[00:26:28] did so in previous periods after October 7th and supplied it with all these
[00:26:32] weapons. Yes. But with
[00:26:35] the Republicans, Israel's dealings are considered different from
[00:26:39] the Democrats. We noticed the relationship increased in intensity
[00:26:42] and diplomatic openness, mutual visits,
[00:26:48] ago, there was direct coordination between the Israeli and American armies, as
[00:26:52] the New York Times reported that
[00:26:55] these forces are being directly prepared. Perhaps they may be ready at
[00:26:59] any moment if Iran initiates an attack, or perhaps
[00:27:03] a new zero hour or a preemptive strike
[00:27:06] may be announced. And this also puts the region in a new
[00:27:10] crisis, in addition to the successive crises, in addition to
[00:27:13] the crisis now for the US President as president within America.
[00:27:16] And therefore, the US President is now suffering from
[00:27:19] great pressure at the diplomatic, political, and relations
[00:27:23] levels, especially since Israel is the biggest supporter
[00:27:28] at least in the war now between
[00:27:32] the Israeli-American side and also the Iranian side. Yes, well, Professor
[00:27:35] Maysara, the discussion about American-Israeli relations, since we
[00:27:39] turned to the repercussions
[00:27:43] the Middle East, also calls for a discussion about the Palestinian
[00:27:46] issue and what is happening in Gaza. Is it possible that
[00:27:49] American dealings
[00:27:53] will change, and we will see a return to talking about the two-state
[00:27:58] this file again? Madam, let us distinguish
[00:28:01] between the Israeli government led by Netanyahu
[00:28:05] and Israel and the United States of America. Let us distinguish between personalities.
[00:28:09] Here in Europe, in the European Union, some time ago, we were in
[00:28:12] Brussels, they were talking against
[00:28:15] the extremist right-wing government, extremely extremist, but they
[00:28:19] they separate between Israel, the state Israel, the entity,
[00:28:22] and Israel, the government. Therefore,
[00:28:25] Trump, I don't think that there might be an alliance of minorities
[00:28:29] against Iran specifically for a war against Iran, that Trump needs
[00:28:35] the previous answer. But Trump
[00:28:38] distanced himself yesterday from Netanyahu, and also
[00:28:41] even the movement that supports
[00:28:44] the
[00:28:46] candidates, the Zionist movement that supports the candidates, it started to review
[00:28:50] yesterday, it issued a decision that it started to retreat from supporting the candidates
[00:28:54] because they are losing, and the Democrats and Republicans started
[00:28:57] to flee from from not from
[00:29:00] Israel in the sense or the entity, but from the
[00:29:04] extremist right-wing government that committed grave violations
[00:29:07] against human rights and the massacres of genocide
[00:29:11] that we saw broadcast live on air. Therefore,
[00:29:14] Eisenkot yesterday spoke with
[00:29:18] Trump and told him that we can deal
[00:29:21] with each other here. When the swimmer
[00:29:24] Netanyahu leaves, I cannot use words here because they are forbidden in
[00:29:27] Europe. When Trump Netanyahu leaves,
[00:29:31] a government comes, Europe and Trump
[00:29:35] and the Democrats can deal with a government as a state.
[00:29:39] But this criminal, we have removed him. As for Gaza, there is
[00:29:42] a clear and explicit decision, whether Democratic or Republican, or even
[00:29:46] the European Union. The European Union categorically rejects the annexation of the West Bank
[00:29:50] and rejects changing territories
[00:29:53] by force, and this applies to Ukraine, but it also supports
[00:29:57] Israel, and every word
[00:30:00] defend itself, Israel's right to exist, and they consider that
[00:30:04] Gaza also was threatening the existence of
[00:30:07] Israel. Therefore, the strict stance will remain
[00:30:11] uh against
[00:30:13] against Hamas specifically, not Gaza. But most European countries now
[00:30:17] have recognized a Palestinian state. America and Germany almost
[00:30:20] did not recognize. Therefore, there is a distinction between
[00:30:23] Netanyahu's government and perhaps Eisenkot's government, which may
[00:30:26] ally with 19 seats
[00:30:30] for Arabs, and they start with iron, and perhaps Israel
[00:30:33] itself will also change its policies under some pressure from Egypt
[00:30:37] and from Saudi Arabia in the direction of Gaza, but
[00:30:41] the American view or the European view
[00:30:44] of Israel will not change. Israel as a state, nor even Hamas,
[00:30:48] but they will accept or push to move
[00:30:51] forward with some humanitarian advantages, not
[00:30:55] the advantages that grant Gaza to be a strong
[00:30:58] and stable state.
