sanctions imposed on north korea over its nuclear missile program they're looking to increase the diplomatic and financial pressure on north korea to give up its development of long range missiles china which is seen as north korea's main ally is not attending the talks in vancouver but tensions on the peninsula do appear to be easing after north and south korea held formal discussions this month for the first time in two years. after a series was jordan is in vancouver and joins us live so was what's the real goal of the meeting. well the u.s. secretary of state rock's teller cent is delivering his opening remarks at this meeting of some twenty foreign ministers members of the so-called u.n. sending states those are the countries that supported the republic of korea or south korea during the war with north korea between one nine hundred fifty and one nine hundred fifty three what he is saying right now is that the in cairo goal of

the international campaign is for the complete to nuclearization of the korean peninsula that the international community will not support a nuclear north korea now this is a question though of whether or not this particular gathering can lend any real support toward that goal because it doesn't have any sort of international imprimatur in that it doesn't have the authority to actually push something along what this meeting can do however is to have basically get every country to reaffirm its support for the existing sanctions regime underlined by the u.n. security council as well as to support individual countries efforts to prevent north korea from getting the money or the equipment or the materiel in order to continue building its nuclear weapons and its ballistic missile programs we mentioned russia and china not being that much difference does not make.

well it certainly has been a big point of contention lauren that neither russia nor china is at this meeting and in fact as we know the chinese have been quite vociferous in their complaints about not being at the table the russians also were very critical of this meeting suggesting that there's too much belligerent talk coming from washington in order for this particular gathering to be taken seriously but that said there aren't any defense ministers attending this meeting here in vancouver and what the u.s. and canada have both said is that they will be briefing both moscow and beijing in down once this one day session has been concluded but it does raise some very legitimate questions given that both china and russia are neighbors of north korea and certainly have national security concerns of their own about a nuclear north korea state but there's also the question of the influence that

both of these governments have on the government in pyongyang whether or not they can actually not only meet their own security council obligations by enforcing the sanctions that have been in power in the past year but also to try to use their whatever influence they do have him young to persuade kim jong un to was stop developing the program if not to dismantle his efforts altogether. thank you very much indeed. still to come on the program bangladesh says it struck a deal to repatriate more than one hundred fifty thousand at rangers refugees to me in mount within two years. and a prominent constable politician who's standing trial for war crimes is shot dead outside his office.
