I didn't get that from the article. In the second to the last paragraph it sounds like they are trying to get conservation funds released that were promised last year.

NEW: Russia continues to publicly claim that it wants peace while offering no concessions of its own, in sharp contrast with the concessions Ukraine has already offered.

Russian officials continue to capitalize on the Trump admin's statements and actions in an attempt to divide the US and Europe.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraineโ€™s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

An area that the Jazz really tried to exploit us was weak-side threes when a certain star player is on the floor. A better team is going to make us pay for slow rotations and poor positioning.

This Billion-Dollar Plan to Save Salmon Depends on a Giant Fish Vacuum Many endorse opening dams and letting fish coast the natural current as the best way to avoid extinction. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has other ideas.
