Iran's Chilling Message to Trump

It is no secret that Trump has not made many friends in the Middle East since taking office. A lot of the disagreements have to deal with Trumps decision to leave the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which is an international pact between Iran, the UK, US, Russia, France, China, and Germany agreed upon in 2015, it aims to limit Tehran’s nuclear arsenal. Trump thinks that the current sanctions are not tough enough and wants to change them. General Mohammed Bagheri says that the United States is too concerned about the Middle East and should worry about our own issues. Mohammed Bagheri also thinks that the U.S. has chosen sides on who they support, saying that the U.S. has been taking Saudi Arabia's side and have also been exporting weapons into the Middle East to start more conflicts. This issue is extremely hostile at this time as Iran vows to never bow to the pressure of the United States.

    The last thing that the United States needs is another extreme conflict with a foreign country. I wish Trump wouldn't be pulling out of these agreements just because the past president signed into them. Before we know it, we are going to have more enemies than allies.

Foreigners Out, Saudis In

Prince Muhammad's goal is to find jobs for young Saudi Arabians, especially because half of them are unemployed. There is some downfall though with this new goal. Labor is becoming more expensive if you hire Saudis compared to the cheap labor payed to a foreigner, also they do not get as much done either. I think that Prince Muhammad has great intentions with this plan, however it is really hurting firms across the country. To get his plan in order, the prince has dumped monthly payments on migrants based on their family size and the people who hire them. Prince Muhammad has also set rules that migrants are not allowed in twelve sectors of the economy. I feel like this action is a little extreme, nobody should be banned from specific economy sectors, even if it will help reduce costs.   https://www.google.com/search?q=Saudi+Arabia+is+pushing+out+foreigners+to+create+jobs+for+locals&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjVv-mh2uLaAhXJ34MKHZNZC0QQ_AUIDCg

First Ever Women Only Fashion Week

Saudi Arabia emerged today (April 12th, 2018) with their premiere of a women only fashion week. No outside cameras are allowed in the area and only women will be walking down the catwalk. This is a big deal considering that this country is very conservative. The country is known for the huge gender gap which leaves the men with the ability to make most choices. The models will walk down the runway wearing creations by Roberto Cavalli, Jean Paul Gaultier, and many other designs by Middle Eastern entrepreneurs. The show closes a Russian Ballet for a women's only audience on Saturday April 14th. They are trying to bring more of the fashion industry to a whole new level. There is already another Saudi Arabian Fashion Week planned to take place in October of this year. https://dunyanews.tv/en/Entertainment/434843-Saudi-Arabia-hosts-its-first-Arab-Fashion-Week
