US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper says the local mobilization should be the last resort to crack down on the protests today.

"The option to mobilize troops to enforce law should be used only as a last resort and only in the most urgent and most serious situations." We are not in that situation. I don't."

Earlier in the day, President Trump warned that the Governor would mobilize the military to tackle the situation if the state's defense forces were not used to suppress the protests.

In the United States, protests against racial discrimination and abuse of public power continued on the eighth day in the case of George Floyd, a black man who was killed by the knees of a white police officer.

Most of the protests are peaceful, but late night looting and violence have also led to curfew in Washington DC and New York.
