How to use discussion in a sentence?

  1. State John Kerry:

    The debate is whether or not there is some weapons that could be given them to give them greater ability to defend themselves in order to prevent the creeping land grabbing that's been taking place, or at least raise the cost, that's a very legitimate discussion.

  2. Guido Kerkhoff:

    Brexit is something that definitely affects us on the timeline... for the discussion, it's actually neutral.

  3. President Barack Obama:

    I also know Speaker Ryan has talked about his interest in tackling poverty. America is about giving everybody willing to work a hand up, and I'd welcome a serious discussion about strategies we can all support, like expanding tax cuts for low-income workers without kids.

  4. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal:

    I think the American people will be pragmatic and compassionate about the people here. But I don't think they want that as part of the discussion on securing border. We need to secure the border first.

  5. Bin Farhan:

    The Crown Prince's discussion with President Biden focused on how to address the Iranian threat. And here, we talked about, first of all, negotiations, but also putting together enough pressure to incentivize the Iranians to come to the negotiating table, we are having discussions with Iran, as Bin Farhan know, so is the United Arab Emirates, so are our friends in Qatar, Kuwait, so we all as the GCC collective are talking to the Iranians because we want to resolve our differences through dialogue, we hope that the Iranians will respond in kind.
