John Kerry warns Republicans:
Sen. John Kerry warned incoming Republicans Tuesday morning against cutting back the size of government so much that it cannot contribute to US productivity.
US Secretary of State John Kerry has made a surprise visit to Iraq to urge its leaders to do more to prevent planes from neighbouring Iran flying through its airspace to supply arms and ammunition to the Syrian government, and to discuss the sectarian conflict still plaguing the country ten years after the US ousted the Saddam Hussein regime.
