The correct answer is A. The action that caused the United Nations and the international community to condemn Iraq in August 1990 was the Iraqi invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

Explanation:

The invasion of Kuwait took place between August 2nd and August 4th, 1990, when Iraq, under the leadership of Saddam Hussein's Ba'ath Party, invaded and annexed Kuwait, declaring the country as its 19th province. The invasion was successful and quick, but international condemnation followed immediately.

UN demanded that Iraq withdraw by a certain date. When this was not completed, a coalition formed by several countries, including Saudi Arabia, the United States, India and the United Kingdom, attacked the Iraqi forces with the aim of restoring Kuwait's independence. The Gulf War, which is the name of the subsequent conflict, ended with a complete Iraqi defeat, causing Iraq to lose its regional power status.

the president has the power to appoint federal judges, ambassadors, and other "principal officers” of the united states, subject to senate confirmation of such appointments.
