1:05 am
given the fact that on its top up its list in terms of dealing with and containing is in fact china that close neighbor off north korea so the bite and administration attempting to find a way to get some kind of negotiated, settlement there through putting pressure on to china, to exit pressure on north korea. this doesn't appear to be working at the moment in terms of what is actually happening is an increasing missile race. it would appear between the 2. korea is which is of major concern to the by did administration. yeah. and it was interesting timing as well because just an hour ago the us announced the special security partnership with the u. k. most failure, they have joint video call. what more can you tell us about that? and i guess the kind of impact it's hoping to have well, it's a very important to strategic alliance that has just been announced between

1:07 am
a way in which the u. s. can maintain its influence over the in the pacific region without at the same time and tagging ising china and removing the only little bit of leverage it has to attempt to contain north korea. so a very complimenting complicated diplomatic process. but this alliance announced in the course of the day, very significant indeed, i can now with the leases from washington d. c. mike, thank you. on us slipping, gymnasts of accused via the eye of turning a blind eye to the sexual abuse that they suffered at the hands of their former team. dr. larry now star for athletes, gave emotional testimony to ascend into the sri committee, which is looking to the f. b. i's miss. humbling of the case. messer has been jail for sexually assaulting hundreds of women and girls. shebra the town see reports
