for we have a liberal president in south korea with president then we had the olympic games the winter games also we have a very self-confident north korean leader now with the atomic weapons program and we have a very pragmatic donald trump now right well let's talk a little bit about the role that south korea place because they've been pushing really hard to broker this meeting between president trump and the north korean leader talked about that yes south korea definitely was here the crucial the most the size of facilitating the whole process as we know president. at his brilliant speech here last year he invited north korea to participate in the winter olympic games and this gave the north koreans a very good opportunity without losing face coming back into dialogue which was very much much needed for them also within south korea the un to reproach him and our forces the right to conservatives are now in a crisis they are very weak because two of the former presidents are embroiled in big scandals convolving corruption so this was very important for a lot of it has to do with just

the talks have been brokered by south korea and are already being seen as a success for those within trump's administration. i think as we've seen in the last twenty four hours a policy that was put in place and has been executed by the state department over the past year has exceeded this summit meeting between the u.s. and north korean leaders is expected by me with the world waiting to see if two months is enough time to dampen down fire and fury into meaningful dialogue. let's get more on this from one of the most who's professor of korean studies a balance of free university you know welcome to the doubly let's start about port about whether each can trust the other and whether this will actually happen do you think it will happen this meeting well that's a point of time very difficult to say because there could be a lot of different obstacles to actually then have having the meeting but as of now both leaders quite straightforwardly said they want to beat even from said yes uneaten so as of now we have to expect that it will be yet except vats in the last few minutes it's been

a step in the right direction and it was south korea that appears to have convinced trump and kim to soften their war of words and embrace diplomacy. this is the man doing the running between pyongyang and washington d.c. and he's failing reached a major milestone. poor president president from you know meeting north korean leader kim jong un he is committed to do do provide. him pledged to both korea are really good friends from any for the nuclear war this sort of tests that he stressed is that you're going to see the new president from that so on as possible it is a sentiment shared by the u.s. president who confirmed that a meeting is being planned. at the historic breakthrough comes after south korean negotiators held talks simpy only on on monday it was here they learned that denuclearization was on the menu is. far from giving up their bombs in recent years north korea has been ratcheting up its missile program and the threats. from fired back with warnings of annihilation and insults for kim jong il. rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime. on the fr

korea and was open to improving relations not only with south korea but potentially with the united states since then we've seen them reach out to international leaders around the world what he has said he is interested in is international recognition for north korea as a responsible nuclear power the united states on the other hand has said that it will settle for nothing short of north korea completely giving up its nuclear weapons so whether all sides can find some kind of compromise within the summit so it means to be seen josh we're also hearing that japan is considering a summit with north korea can you tell us anything about that. japan has a lot of worries about what's been going on japan has quite poor relations with north korea next to the states japan is often singled out for threats from north korea and as this flurry of some planning has gone on they've being increasingly worried that they could be left behind and possibly some of their security concerns be left by the wayside so they've been reaching out to pyongyang and trying to arrange their own meetings to make sur

doesn't have an embassy in north korea donald trump hasn't even sent an ambassador to south korea a lot of old korea hands have left the administration having said that they off course still a lot of people with expertise in the state department in the military in the intelligence community who could prepare the president but the bigger question really is does donald trump want to be prepared for such a meeting he likes to shoot from the hip he likes to follow its gut feeling and that might not be the best approach if you meet someone like kim jong un if you want this meeting to be more than just a photo opportunity because of phenomena in washington thank you. well mr trump's have a busy day he's also made good on his threats by signing off on import tariffs twenty five percent on steel ten percent on our menu he blames other countries for america's massive trade deficit still only accounts for two percent of world trade and yet tit for tat arabs and penalties are dangerous the ripple effects could ask a late into a full on trade. this is the moment donald trump made it official surrou

he doesn't multiple lies north korea he now knows that north korea is ready to take the seat with south korea even with the u.s. and that's for sure the reason why she's in being was very open to invite kim jong un to china today we saw the tweet from the u.s. president you know announcing that this meeting took place in what was interesting is that in the tweet double drop says i was informed by chinese president xi jinping. that shows a tremendous amount of clout on the part of the chinese president doesn't it yes absolutely and it's very important that all involved actors now act responsibly and try to build trust and this shuttle diplomacy also between south korea and all the involved russia china japan and the u.s. was therefore very important and that's very important now that china also talks directly with the u.s. and look at these talks what do you think is the biggest risk right now to these talks. very bad coincidence that for example in the u.s. administration all of a sudden the hotline is take the seat and the whole process or that within north korea something happens that

then being a view to south korea where you are. well it's definitely something of a sigh of relief compared to some of the fears of war that were going on in past months that being said south koreans are somewhat still wary they've been through this before in the past only to have some of these negotiations break down and another cycle of increased tensions but right now they are definitely overall very supportive of the government efforts here to bring both north korea and the united states to go shooting people right josh smith in full south korea thank you very much the top creative for should have said brussels is aiming for an exemption from the u.s. president new trade tariffs that's off the trump signed new target of some student undiminished imports ranging from ten to twenty five percent trumps is the penalties needed to address unfair trade and to boost the u.s. economy and u.s. business leaders and prominent members of his own republican party have warned he's courting economic disaster with the move it's sparking fears

well here is what south korea's top security official had to say. the north clearly expressed its willingness for denuclearizing the korean peninsula and clarify that there's no reason for them to retain nuclear weapons if military threats against them are removed and if the safety of its regime is guaranteed. josh smith is a reuters correspondent in seoul south korea and i asked him how significant a development this is well these were some of the most historic talks in recent memory this is the first time that such senior south korean officials met directly with kim jong un and this signaled that there is some seriousness on both sides you know what hard progress comes out of these talks remains to be seen and many observers will be especially looking closely at what the response out of washington is right we'll talk about that in just a moment josh if north korea follows through on its offer to freeze nuclear testing what are they likely to want in return. that is the big question is this declaration that they might be willing to give up their nu

of american soldiers from south korea there are about thirty thousand of them here north korea has also called for the removal of american nuclear weapons from south korea but all accounts say that the u.s. pulled its tactical nukes out of the south back in the early ninety's but yet pyongyang has insisted that these weapons still exist here so we don't know where the bar is going to be set for north korea to actually do you nucular jason strother with the latest from seoul thank you thank you of get a quick check now some other stories making news around the world a memorial ceremony to honor the heroic french policeman killed by a jihadist attacker last week is under way in paris lieutenant colonel r. nobel offered himself in exchange for a female hostage during a deadly supermarket siege in travel president a man will not call will attend the ceremony. a lawyer of card this pushed him on says that the former catalan leader has vowed to never surrender in the fight for independence from spain he passed on the message after visiting pushed him on it is at a jail in northern germany pus

on the most important factors which are north korea south korea in the draw and the driving seat and the u.s. but china was has always been there and is still there even sometimes diplomacy has to be quite diplomacy what part of international sanctions had to play in bringing this meeting about we could we can still get that the sanctions particular recently strengthening these sanctions had an impact on north korea because within north korea domestically north korea now tries to get on to the next step in of comic development and if it was only for survival they could have also survived with the sanctions but they want to develop economically that's very important to the north koreans that might have pushed them to re enter the dialogue but let's be optimistic and say this meeting happens are there risks to it they are always. risks of course but i think these risks can be reduced by before hand exchange of special envoys of the of the different parties and here in this process of course also south korea will continue to play a very important role as a broker between these two count

south korea's president reacted with caution you know how. we must talk to north korea to denuclearize the korean peninsula but at the same time we must put maximum effort into establishing effective measures against north korean nuclear weapons and missiles. meanwhile north korea is broadcasting these images kim and his wife hosting his guests at a banquet as if it were a family get together and as if there were no nuclear conflict no missile tests and no u.n. sanctions. oh here is some of the stories now that are making headlines around the world a senior u.n. official says. he made this statement after he visited refugee camps in bangladesh constance bizarre district hundreds of thousands of fled to. bangladesh since last august when even more forces launched a crackdown on their communities a russian transport plane has crashed in syria killing all thirty nine people on board and syrian state media say that the plane crashed at russia's hum i mean air base in northern syria and was likely caused by a technical failure. was the night brita

and south korea because the south koreans of course don't want american military action while the talks are going on and step three now is to offer talks to the americans and as you said it might look bad for america if they start something on the military. while talks are going on a while neighbors like china think there is a chance for a peaceful solution so well played by kim jong un and even if the u.s. and north korea were to hold talks how widely carsten would a compromise be. well i can't really see a compromise because basically the regime in north korea has made it clear over years and years that it sees nuclear weapons and long range missiles as its best guarantee against the attempt to overthrow its regime in north korea so once again why should they give that up now my assessment is that north korea is rather playing for time trying to outlast the current administration and maybe done play another game with the next u.s. president care washington correspondent course in the nominal the story for us tonight carson thank you very much. here are some of the other stories now th

the china visit comes ahead of a historic summit between north and south korea for april that meeting is expected to further focus on denuclearization. well i'm joined now by our correspondent in washington clare richardson good evening to you claire so we know that kim jong un spent four days in china that is a long time plenty of time for talks and we also understand that the u.s. president's double trouble he was informed about this meeting by the chinese president do we know exactly what the chinese president told mr trump about those talks. hi branch well trump says she told him that the meeting went well with him and the official reports we've seen coming out of both north korea and china seem to bear that out they downplayed any tensions to emphasize a good working relationship between the two countries now remember china has traditionally been a major ally for north korea but its more recent support for u.n. sanctions on pyongyang has really put a strain on their ties so the point of this meeting for china at least seems to be largely an effort to save face to try and present

south korea. well it's definitely something of a sigh of relief compared to some of the fears of war that were going on in past months that being said south koreans are somewhat still wary they've been through this before in the past only to have some of these negotiations break down and then another cycle of increased tensions but right now they are definitely overall very supportive of the government efforts here to bring both north korea and the united states to the negotiating table right josh in so it's not going to thank you very much thank you. helen joins me now and staying with donald trump in the u.s. to out of some trading pot does the reason you have a lot of concern yeah absolutely enraged at the u.s. president following through on those threats of levees they will go forward on that tariffs on imported steel and aluminum and between ten and fifteen percent now trump says that the penalties and needed to address what he calls unfair trade and to boost the u.s. economy now u.s. busines
