Opinion:
PER CURIAM.

Xi-rum-Tomas offers no basis for challenging the determination that she established no nexus between the hariA she claimed to have suffered and any protected ground. See Gomez-Garcia v. Sessions, 861 F.3d 730, 733 (8th Cir. 2017) (standard for asylum); Malonga v. Mukasey, 546 F.3d 546, 551 (8th Cir. 2008) (standard for withholding of removal). The petition for review is denied.
