notice. >> he won't stop here. if he need to do more, he will do more. >> they don't want to have to do more if they don't have but want to make it clear to the assad regime they are not afraid to. >> we don't see a peaceful syria with assad in there. >> good morning. i'm alison kosik. >> i'm victor blackwell. good morning. this morning, north korea is denouncing the u.s. missile strikes on syria vowing to strengthen their defense capability. a u.s. navy strike group is on its way to the korean peninsula over growing concerns over north korea's missile tests. >> nikki haley calling her comments on syria sabotage after she had, quote, there is no way to find a political solution with assad at the head of the regime. all this as secretary of state rex tillerson gets ready to meet russian foreign minister

in lavrov this week. >> talk about north korea's reaction to the u.s. strikes and the "uss carl vincent" strike group headed to the western pacific. will rippley is joining us and frank anconan is with us as well. will, what are you hearing from north korea? >> i was with government officials when we learned about the carrier strike group being sent back to the korean peninsula. they didn't seem too fazed by it. the strike group there was weeks ago for joint military exercises with jasouth korea. an important week here with a major holiday on saturday a time when this country, in the past, have done things major shows of force, both domestically and internationally. analysts say the country could be ready to push the test and six nuclear tests at any moment. what the officials said about the syria missile strike, quote,

the previous u.s. administrations have been attacking those countries who haven't gotten nuclear weapons and the trump administration is no different from the previous u.s. governments in pinpointing those nonnuclear states. they are talking about syria and iraq and libya, countries where regimes have been toppled by the united states. they believe nuclear tipped intercontinental ballistic missile will protect the regime led by kim jong-un overthrown by the united states. they say they feel emboldened to move forward with developments and -- [ inaudible ] as possible. that means more tests. >> we are having a bit of trouble with your signal there. hopefully, we will figure that out. colonel, as i'm sure you read that comment from that north korean official, what is your response to the rhetoric we are hearing from north korea? >> well, i don't think it's surprising at all. i mean, that is what they are going to say. they have to indicate that they

are not frightened by the united states, they don't care this carrier group is more after threat and i think they are doing what we expected them to do. north korea is a different animal from syria and has to be approached differently. we have a lot of force in the area and beefing that up but i'm not sure it's going to have any effect on the north korean at all. the force isn't the issue. it's the will of the united states. they not sure what the politics are, how the policy has changed. i know they have said this is the same administration policy but that is not exactly true. i think syria demonstrated that. i think they are reassessing what this president is capable of doing and what he might do. >> so let's take those independently. the force and the policy. first, the force. you say that north korea is not concerned about the potential force that the "uss carl vincent" brings with it. are you concerned? will this this just be a show of force? >> i think it's a necessary show of force.

it does indicate a bit of political will that we are willing to react to events on the korean peninsula but a lot of force there already. we have 30,000 troops in south korea and "carl vincent" brings an additional capability. i think that the north koreans have seen this are before. what they don't understand are we willing to do something different than we have in the past? >> so let me bring this back to you, will. i think we fix thad issue with the video there. whether it is the accurate or actual strategy of the united states or not, does pyongyang believe it knows what the u.s. strategy is or will be in dealing with them? >> there is a sense of uncertainty when you talk to officials here. they don't know what the trump administration is capable of. but they do think that the fact that president trump launched that air strike on syria while

he was having dinner with chinese president xi jinping they believe a warning to china and china step up its enforcements of sanctions against north korea and think it was a veiled threat against this country, that things are potentially changing, that there could be missiles raining down here in pyongyang and other cities. but they are very defiant. they had the nuclear missile programs is last thing they would cut and go without food and electricity to develop the rule of their leader kim jong-un. this is a one-party state. he has absolute power so, of course, you ask somebody a question on the streets and they are going to tell you that their number one priority is to keep kim jong-un in power and what they say publicly and all we can report. this is not a country with freedom of expression and it's not a country with ideological freedom whatsoever but people will say they want their government to stay in power and they believe that this strategy of building up the military and

developing these weapons is the right path forward for their country even though critics say it has led to economic hardship and isolation for the people here. the people here do want to interact with foreigners. the way they were interacting with foreigners running in a pyongyang marathon today and smiling and high fiving and talking with people and curious about the outside world that they are kept isolated from the outside world by the government that is in power here. >> colonel, any evidence that the trump administration will be any more successful in forcing china's hand to exercise its influence over north korea? >> i haven't seen it yet. but it's still early. and he does have the chinese president there with him. so we will see what happens over the next few days. the koreans are watching the politics in the u.s. much more closely now that trump is making his openings to the chinese. if there is a policy shift, if the president is successful, of course, that does not bode well for north korea, but, you know, north korea and china, they

really have this relationship that is very difficult for mr. trump just as it was for mr. obama to penetrate. >> colonel rick francona and will riple y, thank you both. 25 people are dead in an egypt church blast, north of cairo. a state cuba say thousands were inside celebrating palm sunday service. >> you're looking at the first video from inside the church when the explosion happened. we want to warn you, this may be hard to watch. ♪ >> so someone was taking video of the ceremony and then at that blast, you see it go to bars.

security officers are digging through the debris right now. it may be little difficult to make out what you're seeing here, but concrete, wood, paper, it's all part of what is left behind after the bombing. cnn senior international correspondent and former cairo bureau chief ben wedeman is live near the turkish/syria board. >> reporter: we can see from the pictures the bomb was chose to the front of the church when it happened. rather, the front rows of the church. more than 2,000 people in this st. george's church that is 60 miles north of cairo when the blast happened. of course, it's palm sunday so the church was full of people. i should also add we are just learning now that there has been another explosion outside the st. mark's church in alexandria which is egypt's secretary

largest city. we don't have any more details on that, other than it was outside the church. but, yes, this blast is just the latest in series of attacks on christians in egypt. you'll recall back in december, there was an attack on the church of st. peter and st. paul in cairo left 25 people dead in that instance. in february a series of attacks on egyptian christian in the northern sinai. many of them ended up fleeing that area altogether bauveecaus the dangers of those attacks by isis. in the past we have seen the security outside these churches have been pretty lax. the soldiers or the policemen guarding them underpaid, undertrained, poorly led, and not very well motivated as well. we understand that the president of egypt has called for a meeting of the national security

counsel in egypt to look into this, that the general prosecutor has begun an investigation, but, of course, with news of a second attack on a church in alexandria the situation is getting worse. >> the focus of these repeated attacks on christians by islamic extremists, as you said, nothing new. we are now hearing, as you had, a second blast at a church. how far away is that church? are there any claims of responsibility for either of those blasts? >> reporter: well, the church from tanto to alexandria is an hour and a half's drive. there has been no responsibility so far but isis has many supporters in egypt. they have an affiliate that is a province of the islamic state that is functioning, running a low-level insurgency in the

sinai. in the nile, delta, cairo, and other egypt towns and cities a series of attacks on police and government officials and on christians going back several years. alison? >> all right. cnn's ben wedeman, thanks very much. keep us posted on details, not just of this first blast but a second blast at a second church. thanks very much. nikki haley's claims are slammed by russia. the defense secretary said last week's chemical attack is russia's fault. plus, violence after thousands of protesters take to the streets in venezuela. why they say the government is violating their human rights. also, alec baldwin is back on "snl," skewering the president on jobs, and the economy. >> do you like that i bomb syria? are you right there?

>> i sure do, sir. but i wanted to talk about my job. i recently got laid off from a coal mining plant. >> god, i love coal!

kevin, how's your mom? life well planned. see what a raymond james financial advisor can do for you. this morning, a top russian official is leveling sharp criticism at u.n. ambassador nikki haley accusing her and the trump administration of, quote, sabotage after she had there is not a peaceful syria with assad in charge. >> she made these comments during an interview with cnn's jamaica tapper. -- jamaica tapper. >> what we ar obviously, defeat isis. secondly, we don't see a peaceful syria with assad in there. third, get the iran influence out. finally, move towards a political solution because at the end of the day, this is a complicated situation.

there are no easy answers and a political solution is going to have to happen. but we know that it is not going to be -- there is not any sort of option where political solution is going to happen with assad at the head of the regime. if you look at his actions and situations hard to see a government peaceful and stable with assad. >> of course, it's hard to. is it the position of the trump administration that he cannot be ruler of syria any more? regime change is the policy? >> well, regime change is something we think is going to happen because all of the parties will see assad is noted leader that needs to be taking place for syria. >> let's bring in cnn's paula newton in moscow for us. has the kremlin respond to do what we heard from ambassador haley? >> reporter: the kremlin hasn't responded directly as of yet, but we have had some very sharp pushback from the head of the

foreign council committee saying we are calling a spade of the spade. this is an effort to start a process of political negotiations between the authorities and the opposition. victor, that pretty much amounts to a big "butt out" to nikki haley and the trump administration. what sat issue, they are saying, look. we have been at the table for years now without you. in terms of coming in right now, our priority is attacking isis and destroying isis. very strong pushback. it has to be said when you look at the trump administration, we have had some conflicting views. nikki haley seemed to go a bit further than rex tillerson was willing to go earlier in the week in terms of regime change. you know, the trump base. this was sharp and short. would they be willing to tolerate more intervention in syria? >> of course, this all informs this meeting between secretary of state rex tillerson and the

russian foreign policy sergei lavrov is coming up mid week. >> the secretary in britain cancelled the meeting on monday but instead meeting with his g7 partners including tillerson on monday and they are getting their policy together and straight and have an allied front to present to russia on wednesday. you can see the united states starting to coalesce support. the british defense secretary having very strong words for russia today in an editorial saying, look. you guys are to blame for every civilian death during that chemical attack. you can see that rex tillerson wants to bring a new paradigm, a new peace process to the table in russia. the question will russia play ball? >> paula newton for us in moscow, thank you. haily also told cnn last week the -- rather last week the strike could be followed by more

action if necessary. >> he won't stop here. if to do more he will do more. really now what happens depends on how everyone responds to what wanted in syria and make sure that we start moving towards a political solution and we start finding peace in that area. >> you can watch jake tapper's full interview with u.s. ambassador nikki haley here at 9:00 a.m. on cnn. in wisconsin, a man on the loose there armed with several high-end handguns and rifles and threatening to use them against public official or at a school and detail is hi rage in 161-page manifesto he sent to the president. the fbi is on a massive manhunt for this man. look at him there. jofs jakubowski. he is armed and dangerous investigators say and he mailed his manifesto the same day on tuesday. >> they say it includes

president trump appears to be taking on two dictatorships at once. the missile strike on syria. >> a u.s. navy group is moving toward the korean peninsula. joining us to talk about this, cnn correspondent alexander field and cnn national field security julie kiam the former assistant secretary of the homeland security department. >> reporter: we know the "uss carl vincent" is an u.s. aircraft carrier in this exact area. it was participating just last month in joint u.s. military exercises between the u.s. military and the south korean.

the ship is returning as a direct response for provocations from north korea. this is will rankle north korea on but a series of strong messages sent by washington, d.c. you had white house officials recently stepping out saying that all options are on the table when it comes to dealing with the nuclear threats from north korea. you also had u.s. president donald trump recently saying if china won't solve the north korea problem, the u.s. will. north korea was a big topic on the agenda when trump met with the chinese president xi jinping at mar-a-lago last week. he is looking to china to provide more support, to apply more pressure on north korea to stop this ratcheting up of missile tests we have seen. it's important to point for our viewers we have seen four missile tests out of north korea since the start of the year. more than two dozen missile tests in north korea in just of the last year.

a huge acceleration of the pace of these tests. we have seen tests of missile engines which is indicated to certain analysts and experts that the north koreans are making stride in terms of the sophistication of their weapons program and you got analysts who are closely watching satellite images coming from north korea and they say they have seen suggestions of activities around nuclear sites which would indicate we could soon see a sixth nuclear test from north korea. serious and strong signs coming from north korea that the u.s. is reacting to with the show of force and presence of this u.s. aircraft carrier returning to the area. >> julia, let me turn to you. you hear that moving this aircraft carrier is not out of the ordinary but there is a certain timing of this as well that can't be just sort of overlooked. tell us what this means for the tensions in the korean peninsula and south china sea. can north korea view this redirection of this carrier from the u.s. as a provocation?

>> oh, i think they will -- they absolutely will view it as a provocation and while it may not be unique, it is certainly a statement, right, that we are ja changing our footing militarily and moving the "vincent" back into the korean peninsula. that combined with the strike in syria, combined with at least news reports that president trump is getting briefed on a variety of options to deal with the north korea problem, including going after its leader directly. and the lack of what all of this means in terms of a trump do doctrine has to make japan and south korea and china nervous. we are not getting a definitive read-out of what they, in fact, talked about. i would suspect that our allies and even china are a little bit confused about what all of this

means so, you know, we are going to be waiting and seeing at this stage. >> a lot changing by the minute, it seems. thank you both for your analyses. >> thank you. certainly the u.s. strike last week informs what is happening there along the korean peninsula. let's bring in another voice to talk about the trump administration's foreign policy moves, senior counterterrorism analyst phillip mudd. let's talk about how does the president's decision to strike there at that air base in syria change how america's foe, albuquerqand its allies in namely kim jong-un, how they view this president? >> i think one of the questions you have to face what is next? i think there is overinterpretation of what has happened in syria and i think the statements out of the united states, including u.n. permanent representative nikki haley are too aggressive. let's be clear about what

happened here. we are six years into a civil war and 400,000 people dead, maybe more. 5 million renfuges. in one instance where the syrians used chemical weapons against their own people we september in five tomahawk to one air base and we hit one air base. all of a sudden, we are fast forwarding into saying assad can't stay. i think people looking at what is happening in syria rightly say this is an indication that the president will act unilaterally in this case without other allies and without congress. to suggest we can fast forward from one privilege strike to ousting a dictator gaining ground after six years of civil war i think is too much. >> let's play a portion of that interview with jake tapper that he talks about the u.s.' view of assad's future there in syria.

do we have it? >> is regime change in syria now the official policy of the united states? >> so there is multiple priorities. it's getting assad out is not the only priority. so what we are trying to do is, obviously, defeat isis. secondly, we don't see a peaceful syria with assad in there. thirdly, get the iranian influence out. and then, finally, move toward a political solution because at the end of the day, this is a implicated situation. there are no easy answers and a political solution is going to have to happen, but we know that it is not going to be -- there's not any sort of option where a political solution is going to happen with assad at the head of the regime. ooi ooi ooimt. >> phil, let's talk about this. she is saying we don't see a political solution with him there instead of saying what we heard from the obama administration that assad must

go? >> if you can figure out what she said, victor, you're a better man than i. she said get assad out and start a political process and defeat isis. a reality check. if you want to get assad out you take direct action with the u.s. military. i doubt it, given the iraq debacle we have been through or it has been unable to make progress against assad or work with the russian on a political solution. question you have to face in the wake of that interview which i thought was incredibly confused is are we going to increase military action to get him out? if not are we undertaking a political process with the russians who say we invited now international law by striking. i don't think we have many options to take him out and i think we are getting confused responses because the administration doesn't know what the next step is. >> all right. phil mudd we look ahead to that interview and hopefully learn more. quick break. we will be right back. >> thank you.

president trump made the call to strike syria during a summit with the chinese president. >> now he is moving navy ships toward the korean peninsula to send a message to china's ally north korea. let's discuss all of this with the many policy signals coming from the trump sayings with the cnn political commentator and political anchor at spectrum news and julian, a professor at princeton university. errol, let me start with you and get the overall political picture of how this latest activity. this has been a busy week with all of these events with syria and north korea. how is the trump administration faring? >> no one can say they weren't warned about this. the trump did not lay out a foreign coherent policy during the campaign. this is the result. what you see is the president and administration reacting to provocations. we get provocations on a leg basis from north korea and this

is how the president is reacting. in syria we are seeing there are attempts to measure the resolve of the united states and figure out how far the assad regime can go. they attempted -- they have used chemical weapons in the past and used it again. they are trying to see what this administration will do and they got an answer in the form of these bombings over of the last week. what we don't have still is a coherent policy. what we don't know is what the administration will do when provoked in the future by these and other dictators. >> let me interject a second. but, you know, donald trump made it clear on the campaign trail he doesn't want to tell his next move to the public. he doesn't want to publicize that. why show your hand especially is there a war coming around the bend. so wou >> this is one of the things that foreign policy professionals and war planners talk about during the campaign. it's not just a matter of a if you're in a hollywood movie and not letting your adversary know what you're going to do. you have allies around the world. you have refuges.

you have rebels who are holding out with their lives at stake who need to know that help is on the way. you need to signal to them what you are going to do and when you're going to do it and there is an immense amount of power that comes from being able to do that. donald trump has rejected that kind of logic. >> julian, i went back and read the president's inaugural address and probably 40 words about the rest of the world. an american-first strategy. how do his supporters likely view what is happening the last week when we focused on other parts of the world and not so much on the u.s.? >> well, his supporters are upset. america first was a key theme, even though he didn't talk about foreign policy. the notion that the united states would remain aloof and distance from some of these kind of conflicts was a core theme. both for a lot of his supporters and, frankly, for a lot of the country who is still war weary after iraq. so i think this definitely doesn't sit well with many of his supporters.

some of have been vocal and many republicans are roired frworriee beginning there is no strategy, no doctrine. you can't react to foreign policy not because people are waiting our commitment but every action has consequences. that is what happened in iraq. if you don't have a plan, this could go very poorly. >> a certain degree of inconsistency, namely from the secretary of state rex tillerson who is on cbs "face the nation" this morning. here is a portion of that conversation. >> the first priority is the defeat of isis. by defeating isis and removing their caliphate from their control we have eliminated or a particular threat not just to the united states but to the whole stability in the region. once isis threat has been reduced or eliminated, i think we can turn our attention directly to stabilizing the situation in syria. >> the question that john dickerson posed and having watched that portion of the interview was should assad go?

should assad leave or be out of power there? we are not seeing a consistent answer, not just from the entire administration but from tillerson alone. >> that is the question with syria. the administration doesn't want to commit to regime change, meaning that the united states will orchestrate that for many political reasons and for many policy reasons. that would not be something popular to say. but it is an attempt to send a signal that the united states is open to rebels doing it. possibly with u.s. support. so we are not in a very different place than we were under president obama, other than now, missiles have been launched. >> very interesting. we have got to go, unfortunate. thank you both for your time this morning. >> thank you. impeachment hearings are set to begin tomorrow for alabama governor robert bentley. next, how an explosive report says he tried to cover up his affair with an adviser. ♪
