Republican Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Democrat Chris Murphy of Connecticut, condemned the Kremlin’s decision as counterproductive and petty.

South Korea’s president convened an emergency national security council meeting after his government detected North Korea’s launch of two unidentified projectiles into the East Sea.

Monday’s launch was North Korea’s fourth test in less than two weeks–highlighting the stalled negotiations between President Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un.

Wednesday’s launches come days after North Korea fired two short-range ballistic missiles.

The Senate on Monday failed to overturn President Donald Trump’s veto of a ban on weapons sales to Saudi Arabia and its Gulf allies.

Lawmakers in both parties have expressed alarm about the Trump administration’s decision to transfer commercial nuclear expertise to Saudi Arabia.

The measures would have stopped an imminent shipmentof 124,000 precision-guided missiles and the fuses to detonate them, among other items.
