Mr. President, very briefly to respond to my good friend from Kentucky, first of all, we are not conducting drone strikes out of Niger. We have not. We are not. We will not. As far as the four troops who were killed in 2017, the good Senator knows that was well investigated; it was not during combat operations that they were killed that U.S. troops were involved in. It was a one- off that certainly was accidental. We are not engaged in hostilities or combat in Niger. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Kentucky.
