In global 1 I'm chancing steen e all eyes were on the international court of justice this weekend -- this week as the top U.N. court ordered israel to immediately end its military operation in this city of rafah. But it was the international criminal court that sent shockwaves across the globe when the chief prosecutor said he was seeking arrest warrants for senior israeli and hamas leaders including the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu for their actions taken since the hamas at over 7 the tax. On the west lock this week mercedes stephenson sits down with the U.S. ambassador to canada to discuss the international response. >> There's been distance visibly trained united states president's position and prime minister justin trudeau's. That's international criminal court they are seeking arrest warrants for senior members of the israeli government as well as senior members of hamas. Are you disappointed in canada's reaction? >> I really don't like doing this especially with use, but at least you little bit on to state what trying -- trudeau has done. He has said canada respects the court but he has quite clearly you said that you cannot draw equivalents between hamas and israel. I am the united states ambassador to canada, I'm not an elected official in canada it's not my position to tell canada what to do. To free nation must make its own sovereign determinations about how it wants to position itself. I am vary proud of the way the U.S. has positioned itself and I thank the U.S. and uk have positioned themselves in the right way on the subject and it's up to canada whether they would like to do the identical thing or if they like to do something less than what the U.S. and uk have done.
