John Sauer, said in a document addressed to the Supreme Court that the detainees were informed in advance of their dismissal and that they had had “Sufficient time” to file requests for judicial examination.

I think we are going to succeed wonderfully. ” “I think we are going to know the best economy in the history of our country.

On the same theme, Donald Trump was then questioned about customs duties. “I assume the responsibility of everything”he said. “Customs duties have just come into force. And we are doing very well. Psychologically, I mean, the “fake news” gave me a good advertisement on customs duties. They will enrich us. We will become a very rich country “he then said.
Last week, the president had aroused controversy by suggesting that consumers would soon see an increase in prices and asking them to make an effort on their purchases. “I just say that [les enfants] do not need 30 dolls. They can have three ”he said. “They don’t need 250 pencils. They can have five. ” Donald Trump then assured that the price of gasoline is down, unlike that of strollers, for example. “Essence is a thousand times greater than a stroller”he said.
