6:04 am
deadly. and that's all the more reason why one hopes that the parties will be able to find some way to resolve this contract. this conflict. i really think that the who the use of just trying to been craft to bring pressure on the saudi. you a confirmation to bring things to a favorable close from their point of view. the only way this is going to be resolved as if saudi, the emerson, the who these are able to sit down together, either directly or remediated apparatus such as the united nations. and work things up, let's not forget that this war was really started by saudi arabia and the emirates . and so the who these essentially are striking back, they're not very happy over the use of force inside their country by the shore, by saudi arabia. you've got to put that into this perspective to really understand what's going on. there isn't any other alternative because neither side has been
6:05 am
able to gain is the size of military advantage over the others when the saudi to the emerald went in t. m. and they obviously thought they would be able to overwhelm the spot, them to a standstill. and so what you've got is something that was stale, me since neither side will prevail militarily based on present circumstances. the only other alternative is diplomacy. on to other news, the u. s. virgin north korea to join direct talk softer. it conducted its 7th mis. i'll test this month. the ministry fired a medium range missile on sunday talks of the u. s. store back in 2019 because north korea wants sanction lifted in return for limits on its nuclear program. we are open to having diplomatic discussions. we've offered this over and over to, to the do p r k, and they've not accepted it, but we're absolutely open to a diplomatic engagement without pre conditions. our goal is to, to,

in the threatening actions that the dpr k is taking against their neighbors. robert kelly now professor of political science and diplomacy at the san national university. he says he believes the bible ministration is willing to talk with north korea. i think the buying people learn from a trump administration though, if you can't run off and do these are big summit so that haven't got a lot of groundwork 1st and that's where it's from really fell down from basically got on the plane and flew to sing for it and a handle and just met it and just walked into the room. there really wasn't a lot of planning. there really been a lot of technical work done before. and that's one of the reasons why nothing came of meetings. right. and so i think the buying people are willing to talk, but it's kind of got to be a fair amount of groundwork on 1st. what exactly are the want to give them? what would they give us? what are we going to have inspections? i would be like safety protocols, we're going to look at north korea facilities where they was mostly on money. i mean, there's all kinds of things that are all kinds of swats that can be arranged. but you know, that the north koreans aren't actually really putting more much right now. right. i
6:07 am
mean, they have to actually show up in order to strike a deal with the buying on. so i'm actually again a credit surprised with a paste the task because my sense of the buying people are willing to talk if the north koreans shop. speaking of us president joe biden, he says the taliban government in afghanistan will not be recognized until it releases an american taken hostage. 2 years ago, navy veteran monk frederick was kidnapped in 2020 while working as a civil engineer in cobble. it's believe he's being held by the taliban affiliated connie network. it's kind of stones in a worsening humanitarian crisis ever since. the taliban takeover prompted the suspension of international aid in a statement by and said, threatening the safety of americans or any innocent civilians is always unacceptable. and hostage taking as an act of particular cruelty and cowardice. the town about must immediately release mark before it can expect any consideration with aspirations villages. missy. this is not negotiable. an update on

6:12 am
and then you are senators, i say very close to reaching a deal to sanctioned russia has it builds up its forces on the border with ukraine . ah, i'm far along the other fellow with the justice is people in northern ireland, remember victims of a shooting by british troops on civil rights activists 50 years ago. ah, after boston scooped up 60 centimeters of snow st. are much calmer on monday. hello . everyone here is the weather pitcher, a temperature of minus one for you, but sure clear conditions through the northeast and the new england states. weiss found we go, the rainfall warning will be dropped for vancouver. we'll see some sunny conditions here. snow roland across the canadian prairies coming off the rockies right through
