What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Rex Tillerson ? Secretary of State Rex Tillerson speaks during a media opportunity with Libyan Prime Minister Fayez al-Sarraj at the State Department in Washington  Friday  Dec. 1  2017. (Carolyn Kaster/Associated Press)
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Friday denied he wants to oust Secretary of State Rex Tillerson  calling reports to that effect “fake news ” as his top diplomat brushed off speculation that he has lost the confidence of the White House.
As  Tillerson  went about  his  normal schedule of diplomatic activities  including two meetings with Trump  the president said his secretary of state is “not leaving.”
“The media has been speculating that I fired  Rex Tillerson  or that  he  would be leaving soon - FAKE NEWS!” Trump tweeted. “He’s not leaving and while we disagree on certain subjects  (I call the final shots) we work well together and America is highly respected again!”
The tweet was Trump’s strongest endorsement of his top diplomat since senior White House officials on Thursday began telling reporters that a plan had been devised to push  Tillerson  out and replace him with CIA chief Mike Pompeo. Immediately after reports of the plan emerged  Trump offered only tepid support for  Tillerson   noting only that he was at the White House for a previously scheduled meeting.
The halfhearted backing amid the swirl of speculation over  Tillerson ’s imminent demise had threatened to impair  his  effectiveness  particularly as  he  prepares for an official trip to Europe next week.
On Friday   Tillerson  attended two meetings at the White House with Trump — one with Libya’s visiting prime minister and then a lunch with the president and Defense Secretary James Mattis. Before those meetings   Tillerson  told reporters at the State Department that speculation  he  was on  his  way out was “laughable.”
Tillerson aides had said the secretary was sanguine and remained comfortable in his role despite the turmoil in Trump’s national security team centering on him. Aides said  Tillerson  would continue to serve until the president asked  him  not to and stressed that such a request had not been made.
Although  Tillerson  looks safe for now   he  will be losing a senior aide and conduit to the public in coming weeks.
R.C. Hammond  who has run State Department strategic communications since  Tillerson  took office  will leave his post in mid-December  officials said.
After a report in October that Tillerson had called the president a “moron ”  Tillerson  appeared before cameras to pledge fealty to his boss. Soon after  Trump publicly challenged his secretary to an IQ match.
When  Tillerson  was tapped for the job late last year  many Trump critics expressed quiet relief that  he ’d picked a sober “adult” who could form a counterweight to the president’s brasher  more impulsive approach  especially on critical matters of war and peace.
Yet divisions on key foreign policy issues emerged quickly  and Trump has repeatedly undermined  Tillerson  by voicing positions at odds with his.
When  Tillerson  in June called on Arab nations to ease their blockade on Qatar  Trump hours later lambasted Qatar for funding terrorism. Trump also deemed diplomacy with North Korea a waste of time  when  Tillerson  was pursuing just that.  Tillerson ’s advice to Trump to stay in the Paris climate deal and certify Iran’s compliance with the nuclear deal was similarly overruled.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Haruhiko Kuroda ? TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan reappointed central bank chief Haruhiko Kuroda for another term on Friday  and chose an advocate of bolder monetary easing as one of his deputies in a strong signal to investors that policymakers are in no rush to turn off a sweeping stimulus program.

As a former top Japanese currency diplomat   Kuroda  had criticized the BOJ for not doing enough to ease the pain a strong yen was inflicting on an export-reliant economy.
 His  calls for more radical monetary steps drew Abeâs attention and brought  him  to the BOJ helm in 2013  where  he  worked with Amamiya to deploy a sweeping asset-buying program.
A workaholic who does not play golf or drink much - making him a rare breed among Japanese policy elites -  Kuroda  has proved to be a safe hand for the government with  his  unwavering commitment to keep the money spigot wide open.
 He  befriended many overseas policymakers during  his  stint as head of the Asian Development Bank from 2005 to 2013.
People who work with him or know him well say  Kuroda  appears lively and fit for another term despite  his  age and the demanding schedule  which involves frequent overseas trips and visits to parliament to answer lawmakersâ questions.
 Kuroda  will face challenges different from five years ago in his second term. The yenâs ascent to 15-month highs has drawn verbal intervention from the finance minister  a sign Abeâs government may pile pressure on the BOJ to ramp up stimulus if yen rises persist.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Gerry Adams Gerry ? GERRY ADAMS  who on November 18th announced plans to retire after 34 years as president of Sinn Fein and the dominant figure in the Irish republican movement  will forever be associated with both war and peace.  He  came to the fore during the Irish Republican Armyâs most violent years in the 1970s and 1980s but also helped turn Sinn Fein into a legitimate political force on both sides of the border.
An exponent of âthe long warââthe theory that  if IRA bomb attacks in Northern Ireland and mainland Britain went on long enough  British spirit would eventually be worn down âMr Adams  eventually oversaw a push for peace. The man who supported a strategy summarised by a close associate as âa ballot paper in one hand and an Armalite in the otherâ later delivered an IRA ceasefire and the decommissioning of its weaponry  in exchange for assurances that Sinn Fein would be allowed entry into the political mainstream.
 Mr Adams  leaves the stage with  his  party enjoying the support of half a million on the island of Ireland. It is the second-largest party in Northern Ireland  and its primary nationalist voice. It is also the third-largest party in the Republic of Ireland  where it recently declared its willingness to take part in a coalition government.
 Yet Mr Adams  had reached  his  political limits.  He  struggled with the transition from Belfast to the Dail in Dublin  weighed down by  his  role in the IRAâs bloody past. Instead the party is now turning to those with a âclean skinâ  as locals term people unassociated with the terrorist group  who may be more politically presentable than  Mr Adams .
Voters are still getting to know Michelle OâNeill  Sinn Feinâs leader in Belfast  who took power at short notice after its former leader  the late Martin McGuinness  quit in January. Although she has no link with the IRA  her family is steeped in republicanism. Her father was interned during the Troubles  and a cousin was shot dead by Britainâs special forces. In the south  Mary Lou McDonald   Mr Adams âs deputy and most likely successor in Dublin  had a more orthodox upbringing. Ms McDonald has acquired a formidable reputation both in the Dail and as an MEP. Sinn Fein hopes that the pair may reach voters that  Mr Adams  never didâor could.
At Sinn Feinâs annual conference in Dublin  party members gave  him  a heroâs send-off with standing ovations.  He  will step down early next year as head of a movement  he  prised away from the gun and fashioned into a daunting political force. Yet  he  will retire a long way from  his  ambition to âtake power in Irelandâ. Here  the man of war and peace fell short.
