Representatives of the participating companies signed the pledge at the recorded White House event.

The cited count of closing highs was broadly supported, although it does not establish the cause of the market's performance.

Preliminary national data supported a historic one-year decline, although the downward trend began earlier.

PolitiFact reported Denmark had spent about $1.5 million of the $200 million package, which was below 1%.

Federal election results support both statements. This does not support his separate description of the victory as a giant historical landslide.

FactCheck.org found West Texas Intermediate crude was down 24.8% from January 17 to December 8, while noting that broader energy-price measures were mixed.

FactCheck.org reported that monthly production was up from January and that the 2025 daily average was on course to exceed the prior annual record.

USDA data reviewed by FactCheck.org showed a decline of more than 645,000 recipients between January and May. This supports the numerical decrease, but not Trump’s separate claim that it was a record.

A crime-data analyst told FactCheck.org the description was accurate, while noting both crimes had fallen from their 2023 peaks.

A RAND comparison found overall U.S. prescription-drug prices averaged 2.78 times those in 33 other developed countries; the gap was larger for brand-name drugs.

The Associated Press reported a popular-vote margin of 2,284,316. This supports the numerical claim, but not Trump’s separate characterization of the result as an unusually large mandate.

He won the presidency in 2016 and 2024. Joe Biden legitimately won the 2020 election; Trump has not produced evidence establishing a rigged result.

CNN found the figure unsupported. Even the White House’s broader tally was $10.7 trillion in announcements and included vague pledges, not verified spending.

The timeline followed state law for receiving and verifying mail ballots and was not evidence of fraud.

The screening test checks for possible cognitive impairment and is not an intelligence test or a measure of exceptional intelligence.

Iran's forces were significantly degraded, but intelligence assessments said substantial missile, drone and air-defense capabilities remained.

Tracked regular-gas prices did not support those figures; the claim may have conflated regular gasoline with the niche E85 blend.

The White House listed $10.6 trillion in announcements, and that total included vague, nonbinding or non-investment pledges.

The Obama-era contract was about $35 million and the Biden administration did not undertake the proposed major rehabilitation.

The pool is about 2,028 feet long, while the Burj Khalifa exceeds 2,700 feet.

Even the government's high-end estimate of annual fraud losses was far smaller than the projected federal deficit.

A vendor error produced duplicate primary mailings, but safeguards prevented duplicate voting and there was no evidence of a partisan fraud scheme.

Border encounters fell sharply, but official data did not show zero entries or encounters.

Available price data did not show a substantial same-day decline.

Major consumer-confidence measures had declined rather than risen sharply.

Border apprehensions fell sharply but official data still recorded thousands of encounters, so the literal zero claim was incorrect.

The White House's own compilation was far lower and included speculative or previously announced commitments.

There were fewer than two million farms in the United States, and only a small fraction of farm estates would otherwise have owed the tax.

Exports to China were about half the prior year's level at that point, and the announced annual purchase amount was below recent averages.

Ground beef was down only one cent month to month and remained substantially higher year over year, while other beef prices rose.

The White House cited the nonbinding Green New Deal resolution, which never passed and imposed no cattle restriction to repeal.

The aid came through the Commodity Credit Corporation, which is funded by regular congressional appropriations.

Evidence does not show that voting by mail inherently produces widespread fraud.

Multiple other democracies permit postal voting, so the categorical claim was incorrect.

Tomahawk is a U.S.-made cruise missile; available inventories did not support the claim.

The 2022 peak was the highest in about four decades, not the highest in U.S. history.

The agreement restricted Iran’s nuclear program and did not grant a right to nuclear weapons.

The annual inflation rate was 3% and far below historical records.

The White House's own compilation was substantially lower and included nonbinding pledges.

Statewide averages did not support the claim.

The payment was funded through enacted federal appropriations, not a dedicated tariff account.

Documented election fraud is rare and not shown at the systemic scale claimed.

Large-scale citizenship checks flagged only a tiny share of registrations, and flags did not establish that those people voted.

The finding rested on a large scientific record and was upheld by a federal appeals court.

Employment data did not support the 92% figure.

The administration did not provide evidence supporting a 97% decline in maritime drug entry.

AP found no evidence for that total; the White House’s own broader compilation was substantially lower and included speculative commitments.

The reviewed evidence did not support characterizing the protests as fabricated or professionally staged.

Greenland was never U.S. territory, so the United States did not give it back to Denmark.

China had the world's largest wind-energy fleet and continued to add wind capacity, contradicting the categorical claim.

The White House’s own published total was $9.6 trillion, and experts cautioned that some listed pledges might never materialize.

No state’s average was below $2; only a limited number of individual stations advertised prices under that threshold.

Federal data recorded about 69,000 deaths from all drug overdoses, not solely fentanyl, in the latest twelve-month period.

The historical record contains numerous presidentially brokered armistices, peace agreements and conflict settlements.

Greenland did not belong to the United States, so the United States could not have returned it to Denmark.

Inflation rose, but real GDP expanded at healthy rates throughout Biden's presidency rather than stagnating.

NATO invoked collective defense after 9/11, and allies supplied troops and support for U.S.-led operations.

Onshore wind was among the cheapest new electricity sources, and the claimed cross-country relationship was unsupported.

No enacted federal law imposed that deadline or universal cap.

Available drug-trafficking evidence did not support attributing the U.S. fentanyl supply to Maduro or Venezuela.

The schedule did not require 72 injections for babies; the number conflated doses across childhood and misstated the schedule.

Inflation was 2.7% and the Biden-era peak was not the highest in U.S. history.

The national average was about $2.90 and no statewide average was $1.99.

The estimated average tax cut was about $800; savings in the stated range applied on average only to the top 1%.

The estimate substantially exceeded credible measures of entries and the unauthorized population.

A price cannot fall by more than 100%.

Documented announcements were far below that range and included speculative or previously announced commitments.

Consumer prices were still rising at about 3% year over year.

No statewide average was that low, though isolated stations advertised such prices.

Federal income taxes raise far more money than tariffs; analysts told PolitiFact that replacing income taxes would require implausibly high tariff or sales-tax levels and would not match the revenue base.

Contemporary job-approval polling was below several earlier peaks in both his first and second terms.

Private-sector jobs increased every year under Biden and rose by about 14.3 million over his term; government jobs also increased but at a slower rate.

USDA data reviewed by FactCheck.org showed a larger decline from October 2024 to January 2025, before Trump's second term began.

The fiscal-year deficit declined by less than 25%, and tariff revenue alone did not support attributing that reduction as claimed.

Tariff collections were measured in hundreds of billions, not trillions, and analysts found the proposed payments could exceed available revenue.

Consumer prices were up 3% year over year.

The available food-at-home index did not support a broad decline.

The cited ICE docket includes people accumulated over decades and does not show that Biden released that number.

The arithmetic was implausible compared with total U.S. overdose deaths and conflated potential doses with actual deaths.

Legal experts and Supreme Court precedent indicate courts can review bad-faith, plainly unauthorized or unlawful uses of military force.

Prior Justice Department analysis and constitutional scholars have said autopen use can be lawful when authorized by the president; no solid proof established unauthorized pardons.

Courts, audits and election-security officials found no evidence of fraud sufficient to change the result.

Congressional and oversight totals for U.S. Ukraine-related support were far below $350 billion.

The $1.5 trillion was the estimated 10-year cost of Democrats' broader spending proposal, not money for undocumented immigrants' health care.

Experts told CNN and FactCheck.org that some Amish families vaccinate and use medications, and autism exists in Amish communities.

No separate measles-only shot was available in the United States.

Portland Fire & Rescue identified only a few protest-adjacent fire calls near the federal building, not fires across the city.

Protests were concentrated near an ICE facility and normal city life continued across Portland; the city was not burning down.

Inflation was still positive and had risen since the spring, with August CPI around 2.9% year over year.

Average grocery prices were higher than when Trump returned to office, even though some individual items had declined.

Electricity prices were higher than a year earlier and higher than in January.

The figure exceeded the White House's own recent public tally and relied on commitments that were not documented as paid investment.

Onshore wind is often cheaper than coal or gas on a levelized-cost basis, while nuclear is typically more expensive than wind.

Scientific evidence shows the planet is warming and that human greenhouse-gas emissions are the primary driver.

Scientists use both terms; climate change describes the broader effects of a warming planet, not a retreat from warming evidence.

The Paris accord took effect for all participating countries in 2016 and allowed each country to set its own voluntary targets.

Federal encounter data, even with estimated gotaways, did not come close to 25 million people entering the country.

Public polling averages showed his approval well below peaks from earlier in the year and his first term.

Untreated fever and pain during pregnancy can create maternal and fetal health risks, and acetaminophen remains a recommended option when needed.

Research found many Amish parents vaccinated at least some children, and autism has been documented in Amish communities.

Hepatitis B can spread from mother to baby at birth and through nonsexual household contact, and early infection is more likely to become chronic.

Studies have not found thimerosal or aluminum adjuvants in vaccines to be harmful in the way Trump suggested; thimerosal was already removed from routine childhood vaccines except some multidose flu shots.

Children do not receive 80 vaccines at once; the claim mischaracterized the recommended vaccination schedule.

Evidence does not show the combined MMR vaccine causes autism, and separate component shots are not available in the United States.

The childhood schedule does not give children 80 different vaccines, and the claim conflated doses, ingredients and visits.

Consumer prices were still rising, with year-over-year inflation around 2.9%.

International homicide-rate comparisons did not place Chicago among the world's highest-ranked cities, though Chicago had a high number of murders among large U.S. cities.

Comparable Kiel Institute tracking showed European direct aid allocations exceeded the U.S. total.

The city had a high homicide rate, but the international ranking and absolute comparison were not supported.

The 2023 rate was the highest in about 20 years, but the city peaked in 1991 at more than twice the 2023 rate.

Mamdani identified as a democratic socialist and advocated electoral, mixed-economy policies rather than abolition of private property or one-party communist rule.

Iran retained nuclear material, technical expertise, centrifuge-manufacturing capacity and sites outside the three attacked facilities.

The U.S. struck three sites, not all Iranian nuclear sites, and available assessments did not support complete destruction of the program.

The Intelligence Community assessed that Iran was not building a weapon and that its leader had not authorized the suspended weapons program.

April and May tariff collections were less than half that figure; the cited total resembled a much longer fiscal-year period.

The events were domestic protests surrounding immigration raids, not a military invasion by a foreign state or army.

Audits, recounts, court cases and election-security officials found no fraud capable of changing the result.

The figure compared expiring provisions with the bill's full mix of tax changes and did not represent the average increase taxpayers would face.

Harvard had supplied required student records while contesting broader demands.

The footage showed a memorial demonstration with white crosses, not an actual burial site for the people named in the claim.

The repeated genocide framing was not supported by experts, crime statistics or the South African government's record; farm murders were real but did not establish genocide.

The legislation included eligibility and financing changes projected to reduce enrollment and federal spending.

Five negotiated prices remained more than twice comparable-country averages, but the negotiations still reduced their U.S. prices.

Farm attacks and killings occur, but experts and available crime data did not establish a government-backed or group-destruction campaign meeting the genocide claim.

At the time of the claim, the legal arrangement, final recipient and transfer terms had not been publicly explained.

The White House tally was far lower and included broad commitments rather than verified completed investment; independent review found the near-$10 trillion figure unsupported.

Lower import volume can reduce customs receipts and signal trade disruption; economists did not support the claim that a port slowdown itself meant the country was financially better off.

The law funded broadband access and digital-skills programs for covered populations including rural residents, veterans, older adults and people with disabilities; it was not limited to race and had not been ruled illegal.

The letters and numbers shown in a circulated image were digitally added labels, not tattoos spelling MS-13.

Foreign direct investment continued under Biden, and Apple announced major U.S. spending and investment commitments during his term.

The cited result came from one Trump-aligned poll; multiple other contemporary polls found the opposite.

Overseas visits in March were 11.6% lower than in March 2024, contradicting the contemporaneous claim.

The White House cited future announcements above $5 trillion, not completed investment, and the stated $7 trillion to $8 trillion total was not supported.

The Consumer Price Index and food-at-home index were still rising in the available data; the statement was not true as a broad price claim.

No statewide average was below $2; the national average was above $3.

The latest retail average was higher than in January.

The food-at-home index increased in the latest available month.

Prices were still rising, though the annual rate had slowed.

The policy was a nonbinding sales goal plus emissions standards, not a purchase mandate.

Congress had appropriated about $174 billion, roughly half the amount claimed.

Comparable tracking showed European allocations exceeded the U.S. total.

Courts, audits and election-security officials found no outcome-changing fraud.

The committee published an extensive report and supporting records.

The congressional investigation found no evidence of such an offer or presidential order.

Congress had certified the completed electoral vote count; the statement mischaracterized the status of the election result.

Crime was down, but police had recorded more than 11,000 crimes and 57 homicides in 2026. Overall crime was about 20% lower, not 88%.

The commitment is voluntary, not a binding guarantee. States and Congress were separately considering enforceable requirements, and some signatories opposed such mandates.

Participation requires an election; the $1,000 is limited by birth-year and citizenship rules. Larger gains depend on market performance and additional contributions.

The cited evidence did not establish thousands of noncitizen ballots.

Known cyber incidents and commercially available voter data did not support the full characterization.

Foreign actors pose real threats, but audits and safeguards have not shown altered national results.

Multiple national surveys showed long-term declines or recent stability in affiliation and attendance rather than a broad religious resurgence.

The estimate depended on selective assumptions and was not representative of every typical account holder.

The agreement imposed enrichment and monitoring limits and intelligence did not establish an imminent weapon.

Several major indicators did not support either superlative.

Manufacturing construction remained elevated but had declined from its peak.

The payment settled a decades-old U.S. debt and was made in foreign currency because sanctions blocked a dollar transfer; the bank-emptying description was unsupported.

Some defendants were charged for conduct outside the building, but many outside cases involved assault, restricted-area breaches or other unlawful conduct; the statement omitted that context.

Controls reduce some emissions, but burning coal still produces carbon dioxide and other pollutants.

He had repeatedly called it a war, including later in the same Cabinet meeting.

The cited ICE docket covered people accumulated across multiple administrations and included people in custody, so it did not show that Biden let that number enter or roam free.

Republicans had won multiple recent elections in Nassau County.

The raw employment count was high largely because the population had grown; employment and participation rates did not show an equivalent record.

The cited ICE docket accumulated cases over multiple decades, including Trump's first term, and includes people serving prison sentences.

It created a temporary, income-limited deduction rather than eliminating Social Security taxation for every beneficiary.

Arms-control experts found no evidence that a weapon was imminent or that Iran had resumed the necessary weaponization work before the operation.

The United States became the top producer of natural gas and petroleum before Trump’s first presidential term, so the production ranking cannot be attributed solely to his leadership.

Iran's new supreme leader was viewed as at least as hard-line, while the Revolutionary Guard had gained influence.

Direct imports were limited, but globally traded oil prices and U.S. gasoline costs remained exposed to Middle Eastern disruption.

The payment settled a decades-old debt for military equipment the United States never delivered; it was not a gift.

Political change had occurred, but the claim overstated the administration’s demonstrated role and the stability of the outcome.

The head count was high because population grows, while the employment rate was below historical peaks.

The law increased and extended the exemption but did not repeal the federal estate tax.

Mail voting is widely used with verification safeguards; documented fraud is rare and not shown to make mail elections inherently inaccurate.

Available video, satellite imagery and expert analysis instead indicated that a U.S. strike was likely responsible, while the official investigation remained incomplete.

Stockpiles varied by weapon type; experts identified strained interceptor and precision-missile supplies that would require replenishment.

The strikes damaged facilities but did not eliminate Iran's nuclear expertise or all material.

Real GDP grew 2.8% in 2024, so the economy was not stagnant by that standard.

The raw number rises with population; the employment-to-population ratio remained below its 2000 peak.

Growth was positive, but available measures did not establish an unprecedented boom.

The Bureau of Economic Analysis attributed one percentage point of reduced fourth-quarter growth to the shutdown, not two.

Natural-gas production was at record levels, but it had also reached records before Trump returned to office, so the causal framing overstated his role.

Some crime measures declined, but the magnitude and claimed causal link were not established.

Recent violent-crime declines were real, but no consistent national series supports a precise comparison to 1900.

Construction investment was elevated, but available measures did not establish an all-time record in the terms claimed.

The U.S. led on several measures, but the broad claim omitted areas where China was competitive or ahead.

Some prices or rates had declined, but several major categories were mixed or still elevated; the across-the-board claim overstated the data.

Immigration can affect local demand, but economists point to housing shortages, interest rates, zoning and construction constraints as larger drivers; the single-cause framing was misleading.

Overall prices were still rising, although some individual categories such as eggs and gasoline had declined.

Detailed deportation data were unavailable, and about 74% of people then held in immigration detention had no criminal convictions.

Government positions accounted for about 11% of total job growth across Biden’s four years; a higher share applied only to a narrower selected period.

Several cited conflicts were not conclusively ended, and renewed fighting or unresolved disputes remained.

The economy was growing and unemployment was low, but hiring had slowed sharply and inflation remained elevated.

Coal production is cleaner than it was historically, but burning coal still emits carbon dioxide and harmful air pollutants.

Some long-run gains were large, but the claim overstated the increase and compressed the time period.

The baskets contained different items and quantities, preventing the direct price comparison Trump made.

Russia tested nuclear-capable delivery systems, but North Korea was the only country to conduct a nuclear explosion this century.

The count overstated modern routine use; FactCheck.org reported 30 crises since 1794, with more than half before 1900 and the most recent use in 1992.

Experts credited Trump with a role in some conflicts, but several cited disputes were not wars, remained unresolved, or involved disputed U.S. influence.

The timeline was backwards for key federal cases: winning the 2024 election led the Justice Department to drop prosecutions under its sitting-president policy.

About 37% of presidents had invoked the act, not half, and legal experts said courts can still review an invocation's legality.

He had a role in some ceasefires and accords, but several cited conflicts remained unresolved, were diplomatic disputes rather than wars, or involved disputed U.S. influence.

The claim omitted that Iran had largely complied with the agreement before Trump withdrew from it and that experts credited the pact with limiting Iran's nuclear program.

Obama left office before the Abraham Accords existed, and Biden pursued Saudi normalization efforts that stalled after the Gaza war.

The tally included diplomatic disputes or conflicts that had not fully ended, even after peace agreements or ceasefires.

The law created a temporary deduction for some older taxpayers but did not eliminate taxation of Social Security benefits.

Arrests and clashes occurred around the ICE facility, but available reporting showed limited, localized protests rather than a citywide insurrection.

The cited inspector general report covered years spanning both administrations and did not establish that hundreds of thousands of children were missing or harmed.

Reported autism prevalence has risen, but researchers attribute much of the change to broader definitions, awareness and diagnostic practices rather than a demonstrated pharmaceutical cause.

Experts credited him with a significant role in ending fighting in some conflicts, but several examples were not wars or were not conclusively settled.

FactCheck.org found no serious bail-reform model required automatic release for murder suspects; judges generally retain detention authority.

Washington had serious crime problems, but official and independent data showed violent crime had fallen since the 2023 spike.

Research and city data did not support a broad causal claim that bail reform worsened crime in those places.

Some jurisdictions allow judges to release murder suspects without cash bail in rare cases, but many policies have violent-felony exemptions or detention discretion.

Several cited disputes were not wars conclusively ended by Trump, and some remained unresolved.

Payment timing produced the monthly surplus; the government still had a large year-to-date deficit and had recorded other monthly surpluses more recently.

Some categories declined, but the overall Consumer Price Index rose between January and June.

The national average was roughly unchanged from inauguration and its longer decline primarily reflected global crude-oil markets.

Some companies announced U.S. projects, but several commitments predated the tariffs or had other drivers; the evidence did not support a broad tariff-causation claim.

The cited objections concerned due process and compliance with court orders, not a categorical claim that deportation was forbidden.

The administration announced a plan to seek voluntary phaseouts and further regulatory action, not an immediate comprehensive ban.

Recruiting had improved, but the gains began before Trump took office and analysts said the shift reflected work over the prior two to five years.

The comparison treated a single printed ballot as equivalent to a ballot-marking device and omitted scanners, accessibility equipment, staffing and other election costs.

Zelenskyy was democratically elected, and Ukrainian law prohibits national elections while martial law is in force during Russia's invasion.

The claim distorted Zelenskyy's distinction between direct military support and the broader U.S. appropriation, which also funded U.S.-administered activities.

Zelenskyy distinguished direct aid received by Ukraine from broader U.S. war-related spending; he did not say half had disappeared or been stolen.

FEMA extended hotel assistance for many households, and the broad description omitted eligibility reviews and extensions.

More than 140 police officers were assaulted and the injuries included concussions, fractures and other serious harms.

Tariffs are collected from U.S. importers, which may pass the cost to consumers.

FEMA was delivering supplies and had approved hundreds of millions of dollars in assistance.

Energy prices and fiscal policy were factors, but economists also identified pandemic supply shocks, demand shifts, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and labor-cost pressures; the claim oversimplified causation.

Trump made the broad superlative while disputing stockpile-concern reporting. Public evidence is not sufficient to verify detailed U.S. and foreign munitions inventories, and contemporaneous reporting described concerns about specific U.S. air-defense stockpiles.

Those figures came from the White House. The reviewed independent reporting did not provide enough underlying data to verify them.

“Best” has no single accepted measure. The claim omits the 2020 recession and requires selecting favorable indicators, so it cannot be supported as stated.

The administration described vulnerabilities and foreign access, but that does not by itself establish altered vote totals or a changed result.

The administration did not disclose enough methodology or records to validate the total.

The counterfactual economic outcome cannot be established from the available evidence.

Seizure data do not measure drugs that enter undetected, so available federal data cannot establish the claimed reduction in total flow.

The sweeping counterfactual could not be substantiated from public evidence.

CNN found the administration had not provided evidence for the asserted proportion.

The administration did not provide evidence establishing the asserted proportion.

Arms-control experts disputed the claim, and the reviewed public evidence did not establish a reliable near-term timetable.

The review found no documented U.S. examples supporting the asserted pattern.

The pledge sets commitments, but future retail-price outcomes depend on implementation, utility regulation and grid costs that cannot yet be established.

The counterfactual prediction was not supported by verifiable evidence.

The reviewed public evidence did not establish the asserted reconstruction.

Public assessments did not establish the claimed near-term timetable.

Public intelligence did not establish that a weapon decision or immediate breakout was underway.

The administration did not provide evidence supporting the specific flow estimate.

No supporting evidence was provided for a coordinated foreign-government practice.

No evidence established the broad claim.

The cited review found no evidence supporting a broad exodus of companies.

FactCheck.org cited immigration and Venezuelan crime experts who said there was no evidence for a government policy sending such people to the United States.

The administration did not release evidence for the cargo claim; FactCheck.org noted fentanyl is primarily trafficked through Mexico, not by sea from Venezuela or Colombia.

The public record did not establish a definitive damage assessment proving complete obliteration of the facilities.

Some studies show associations, but the most rigorous reviews have not established causation.

Portland police said they had not found evidence that protesters were professional agitators or anarchists, though some individuals had been arrested for criminal conduct.

Research has shown associations in some studies, but no causal relationship has been established and other research points away from causation.

Research has not shown a causal link between correctly dosed acetaminophen use in children and autism.

A National Research Council review found existing research was not informative enough to determine whether capital punishment deters homicide.

There were investigations and allegations about crime-data handling, but experts said homicide data were reliable and public evidence did not establish the broad charge.

A commander was under investigation over crime-data changes, but public evidence did not establish broad falsification of D.C. crime statistics.

No evidence showed political manipulation of the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates; routine revisions follow a published methodology.

Iran could potentially produce weapons-grade material quickly, but intelligence agencies assessed that it was not building a weapon and experts said weaponization would take months or longer.

No evidence was provided for an organized effort to pre-position bricks or weapons for the Los Angeles demonstrations.

The Guardian identified no evidence supporting the accusation that state or city officials paid protesters to attack federal officers.

The pledge depended on future corporate behavior and government-approved deal terms; contemporaneous reporting did not provide enough evidence to verify the promised employment outcome.

Trump announced the claimed benefits before the final national-security arrangement and investment timetable were public, so the future job and economic-impact totals could not yet be independently verified.

The order set targets and contemplated later rulemaking but did not specify an immediate implementation mechanism; experts said whether or when savings would reach patients was unknown.

Public reporting described conflicting anonymous intelligence accounts and did not establish the broad claim.

DOGE claimed substantially less in savings and publicly documented only a fraction of that amount; it did not substantiate hundreds of billions in fraud.

No evidence established a coordinated policy by foreign governments to send such people to the United States.

FactCheck.org reported the proposed technology was still being developed and experts questioned whether a shield could protect the entire United States.

FactCheck.org found Trump provided no evidence, and the inspector general report did not show outside agitators caused or directed the violence.

No evidence was identified for a coordinated policy by foreign governments.
