can do. there's no other skills. so it's either that or nothing. by the way, i like documentaries. i just don't like being in documentaries. don't confuse the two high level meeting takes place between north and south korea just as there are talks over kim jong-un's regime. how and why the russian people are souring on the trump presidency. and later -- >> the people here say of course they appreciate the calm since a cease-fire is put in place but say it has had almost an immediate impact on life here. >> a cnn exclusive from a town inside syria where a cease-fire is finally bringing some calm. live from cnn world headquarters in atlanta, we want to welcome our viewers here in the united states and all around the world.

i'm george howell. "cnn newsroom" starts right now. 3:00 a.m. on the u.s. east coast. reigning in north korea. that's the meeting of top diplomats taking place in manila. the united states is pushing for more isolation but others believe dialogue is the key. one notable meeting did take place though. the foreign ministers from both north and south korea reportedly met face-to-face. south korean media say the two ministers spoke briefly at a gala event on sunday. he missed the dinner at the meeting with asean. new sanctions with pyongyang have been major focus eest vent. rex tillerson say those

sanctions send a very strong message. he said the whole world wants to see a nuclear-free korean peninsula. tillerson said the u.s. was willing to hold talks with north korea but that there are are some conditions. listen. >> a best signal that north korea could give us that they are prepared to talk would be to stop the missile launches. we've not had app extended period of time where they have not taken some type of provocative action by launching ballistic missiles. i think that would be the first and strongest signal they could send us to is to just stop the missile launches. t >> cnn covering the story with our team of correspondents. our senior koefrnt ivan watson is live at the meetings in manila. and alexander field in seoul, south korea. ivan we start with you. urging leaders to isolate korea more but there is push back from those who say dialogue here is

the answer. what do you hear? >> that's right. southeast asian nations which is organizing this diplomatic dwajerring here, they did pitch back from a u.s. proposal to suspend north korea from an asian regional forum that the north korean foreign minister is attending this afternoon. supposed to be starting as we speak, now. arguing that it is better to have dialogue to deescalate tensions on the korean peninsula. the u.s. has been playing an interesting strategy. on the one hand, conducting its own ballistic missile tests. overflights, bomber, overflights over the korean peninsula. at the same time, secretary of state rex tillerson said hey we would be willing to talk to the north koreans, just please stop

firing missiles. maybe the willingness to lead help et other countries on the crisis, rush why and china namely, to agree to this week end's security council resolution which imposes new sanctions on the north korean rezeem. banning the export of coal, iron, seafood. which is the u.s. rg us are key earners of much-needed fosh currency, hard currency for the north korean foreign regime. asean, the host organization here, took the unusual step of publishing a joint statement on north korea at the start of this diplomatic gathering p. expressing yaet concern over the fact north korea fired two intercontinental ballistic missiles just last month. arguing this is a threat to world peace. >> and the big question remains, ivan, will different will sanctions make? this is a country that weathered many harsh sanctions before.

stand by. let's go to 's. ander field. there was a brief interaction between the north and south korean foreign ministers at a dinner. u.s. secretary of state noticeably absent from that event. some consider that a missed opportunity. is there any reaction from either side about that brief encounter? >> what we know about this encount are came from local meeting here in south korea. apparently went something like this with the south korean foreign minister asking the north korean foreign minister for some kind of dialogue. south korea's gesture has been insincere. so will that brief encounter at this gala leave you any change in the relationship right now? should it be guarded with any kind of optimism right now? not so fast, george. we've had response from state media this weekend.

first state media pushing back against the u.s. saying u.s. policy is hostile. we could have state news pushing back vowing strong responses. and saying the nuclear program is not up for negotiation. that's a line you've heard from before, from kim jong-un, saying he won't barter on his goal of developing a nuclear weapon able to reach the u.s. he sees it as his survival of his rejagime. he sees it for the protection of his own country. that is not the way diplomats in the u.s. would want it to be at this point. george? snrs thank you wp ivan, another question to you. this meeting between rex tillerson and his russian counter parts, sergey lavrov, this meeting comes at a time

when these nations between the two nations is at a low point. mr. tillerson had this to say about their meeting. we can talk about it here on the other side. let's listen. >> russia meddling in the elections is certain lay serious incident. we talked about it in the discussion we had with mr. laverov yesterday. trying to help them understand just how serious this issue had been and how seriously it damaged the u.s. between the u.s. people and russian people. but this created serious mistrust between our two countries and we simply have to find some way it deal with that. >> and he also made the point, describing sanctions as unfriendly and dangerous, but these two men, despite the investigations fwoing on in the united states, despite how russians are viewing this as well, these two men have a stable working relationship. >>russians are viewing this as

well, these two men have a stable working relationship. >>united states, despite how russians are viewing this as well, these two men have a stable working relationship. >>. >> that's right. and the state department say this is an opportunity, a gathering, to work with nations like namely north korea. and certainly washington must appreciate russian support for this united nations security counsel resolution with new sanctions against north korea. but the alleged russian election meddling in the u.s. november 2016 presidential election, isn't the only area where there are sharp differences between moscow and washington. another area is this it the for that the moves on skpreling diplomats and closing diplomatic facilities. russia responding in recent weeks to move that outgoing obama administration made where it shut down two compounds and expelled 35 russian diplomats.

russia said that u.s. has to basically end employment for some 700 staff and local workers at u.s. diplomatics in russia. rex tillerson referred to that saying well i don't have an answer for you left. foreign minister. but i should have something for you by september 1st. that will be important to hear because it could lead to more escalation of these diplomatic tensions between these two capitals. >> and we look on to day two now. senior international correspondent ivan watson live forness manila at the forum taking place. and alexander fooel, thank you for the report and we will stay in touch. when mr. tillerson's boss, donald trump, was elected u.s. president, russia saw it as an opportunity to improve relations with the u.s. now the honeymoon is over fair to say. russian meddling in the u.s.

election lowered expectations. now new sanctions approved by congress of president trump aren't helping things either. our oran lieberman has this report. >> reporter: the champagne flowed freely on inauguration night. russian adoration for trump on display. trump given fawning press coverage. a favor he returned. >> wouldn't that be nice if we got along with russia? >> seven months later, trump/putin bromance has come to an end. the leading weekly talk shows saying donald trump shot himself in the leg, started limping and lost a good chunk of his powers. now they see a weak president, congress suffering from what they call hysteria in an

expanding russia administration, something they call absurd and groundless. >> what do you think of president donald trump? >> i don't think things changed with trump in the office. we expected there will be changed for good this woman said. he gave us some sort of hope. but i think nothing has changed. my opinion of him changed a little bit, said this woman. he behaves more like a businessman. not like a president. trump's signing of the russian bill, disspelling any notions of the countries getting along any time soon. the anger playing out, where else, but on twitter. our relationship with at an all time low. thank you to congress, same people who can't even give us health care. seen as submission in russia. russia prime minister tweeting, the trump administration has shownity total weekness.

trump and putin avoided criticizing each other directly but hasn't saved the american president's image in russia now pr trayed as impotent and weak. different image of putin on holiday. seizing the moment. the president proudly bearing his own popularity. cnn, moscow. >> what can you say? the man likes to fish. >> let's bring in brian clasp. brian is from london school of economics. always a pleasure to have you on the show, brian. let's start with earlier reporting, i'm sure you heard this, about this new interaction between secretary of state rex tillerson and his russian count erer parts, sergey lavrov. will this make a difference, given the status at this point given the two nations. >> i don't think so.

russia and the united states don't get along because they have fundamentally different views. united states stands for europe. stands for democracy. and russia stands against both of those things and has for decades. so i think that fundamental world view differences won't be papered over by media. what is striking about this meeting is that people who are interacting with russia on behalf of the u.s. government, for example nikki haley or rex tiller s tillerson or hr mcmaster, they are saying the right thing about russia. they undekneely interfered in our election. there will be consequences. only pers the real question here is will secretary of state tillerson's comments, harsh rhetoric which i believe justified be echoed in the oval office. otherwise they are completely meaningless if they don't see

how trump goes with russia. >> they seem to walk the line of division here because as you describe here, good part of the united states, intelligence community, congress, focused on russian meddling in the u.s. election. the president though focused on, as he mentioned in the campaign, trying to improve relations with rush why and we heard, i suppose could you say, a nuanced response, coming from secretary of state, trying to walk both sides. >> there's a baffling thing going on, that is that donald trump won't say a bad word about the united states number one foreign adversary. autocratic murderers of photo jurn willists, attacks american democracy. it is astonishing to hear that. the reason the sanctions were put in place is because vladimir putin was deemed by the u.s. committee authorizing someone directly an attack on american democracy. one has been repeated in france.

and likely repeated next month in germany. trump's response is that sanctions aren't the fault of congress. americans serving their country trying to defer a future attack. it is not putin's fault. it is congresss fault. that is astounding because the president is supposed to go to bad for americans on the internag national stage, not for russian president. >> u.s. vice president pushing back on a new york times report after republic can shadow campaign. running for president as young as i could find 20/20. pence has eyes possibly on 2024. what do you make of yourself, brian, and like an early presidential candidate. he denies the report because this will wrinkle trump like no other. the idea pence is gearing up for

2020 just in case would be i think that he is also being prudent to potentially lay the ground work. we're only seven months into the presidency. most unpopular one in history. as a result of this, i think the republican establishment is trying to come up with plan b. while pence will publicly deny this he is likely laying some ground work behind the scenes for that possibility even if it never comes to tuition. >> thank you. >> thing you. still ahead on newsroom, as violent protests continue in venezuela, authorities stopped the major attack. the president there says it is quote, time to beat terrorism

peace there. fred has this exclusive report. a look at live in quneitra. >> reporter: it was one of the most violent battle fields in syria. video showing fighting between government forces and rebels in quneitra, right on israel's doorstep. but now there's a cease-fire. tanks are parked, soldiers relaxed. the fighting has significantly decreased since the cease-fire this officers tells me. you notely notice that. we don't hear shell anything more. but sometimes groups like nisra breaks the troops. they are not part of the agreement. if they start shooting we have to reit'llation. right in the heart of town. whoo russia has helped a lot, he says. they laid the ground work for this cease-fire. they have the most power.

queneitra is one of the three places where truces were negotiated between government and opposition forces. people here say of koirs they appreciate the calm since the seattle fire is put in place but also say it's had almost an immediate impact on life here. with more people venturing out and many businesses opening their doors once again. a lull on the battlefield means more commotion at the barbershop. many soldiers and towns people now come to get a trim. we want this to be sold for good. we want our lives to be the way they were before. farming is also ramping up again. si sayeed works in wheat. he is grateful only to moscow.

if america would have wanted to solve this they could have done it a long time ago, he says. russia is working hard thp they are strong allies. from posts on the heights, israel is observing things with growing unease. the israelis fear the cease-fire could allow their arch enemies, supporters of the assad government it move forces into this sarah. but at moment the people this this town aren't worried about bigger middle eastern security concerns. they are just enjoying the calm while it lasts. cnn, queneitra syria. >> protesters facing off near a military base on sunday. that was after officials say they stopped what they claim was a terror attack on a parapull tour of the base.

he says his government won't be defeated. >> translator: a week ago we won with votes and today we had to beat terrorism with bullets. >> president medura said two attackers were killed. later is this report from caucus. >> the government calls this paramilitary style attack. they have several people in custody. we have seen seen the stronger milita military presence on the streets. this revolt cake shortly after a video was posted on-line bay group of informed men saying that this was a legitimate re l rebellion.

they want to rehe stab lish ree governme government. the government claims this group was backed by outside influences, specifically nafing colombia and miami. right? the same day we now ousted attorney general has spoken out yet again. she has been a very vocal credit of the government. even though she once supported him she is saying his actions are not legitimate. and she claims that she is still the attorney general of the venezuela despite who the new constituent assembly may have named as hr replacement. remember this new assembly is very controversial. it is expected to rewrite the constitution and could give the president extended powers. the new assembly said they will have a truth commitment and will move toward to get together bottom of the political unrest. many in the opposition, critics

fear who that commission will target next. leyla santiago, cnn, caracas. >> attorney general is speaking outs. how he is responding to criticism em into russia's meddling into the u.s. election p. live from atlanta, georgia, to our viewers from around the united states and around the world. stay with us.

welcome back to our viewers in the u.s. and around the world p.m. i'm george lahowell with headlines we are following with

you. meeting face-to-face in the philippines, this according to the media, and they are meeting in southeast asian nations, asean as it's known. pyongyang has been a major focus of that event. in the united states the governor of minnesota calls an explosion at a mosque an act of terrorism. authorities say a homemade eskimosive device apparently caused saturday's blast in bloomington. no one was injured. fbi still trying to determine who set off this explosive and why. three people have been arrested after demonstrations took place in portland, oregon. hundreds of people took part in march of solidarity against hateful rhetoric. more now op our top story. north korea facing pressure from diplomats gathered in the philippines p. this after u.n. security counsel

unanimously passed tough sanctions against pyongyang. let's get text on this with a global fellow at wilson center and journalist who has cuffed north korea extensively. good to have you with us here on the show. let's talk first about this notable meeting with regards to north korea so far this very brief encounter between the foreign ministers of north and south korea. how significant is this that they even spoke? >> this regional forum is one of the few chances that north koreans and south koreans have to interact. now south korean foreign minister had said she would try to pull him aside, to try to urge him to response to south korean's overtur he proposals that he made in engagements. so talks about reunions between

divided families. families separated since before the korean war. she did manage to speak to him for a couple minutes. his response is that didn't think the offer was very sincere. >> u.s. is coming to this with the wipd at its back so to speak. but will sanctions make a difference at all. how do you ensure the sanctions are truly executed as designed? >> that's a good point. these are some fairly tough sachkss. these up u.n. sanctions do go after north korea's lively hood. also main sources of missing comes too. all cool imports.north korea's . also main sources of missing comes too. all cool imports. other iron, ore and seafood. it hinges on whether nations enforce these. and you really have to be after

china to enforce sanctions. that's been very tough. north korea has been very defiant in the face of sanctions over the years. saying they will continue doing what it needs to do regardless of the sanctions. so that will mean that people will suffer. >> so the goal here overall is a num lar free korean peninsula. here's the question. as it seems as world leaders come together at the asean forum, my question, do you ice correct more as the united states want to do. or do you open yourself to more dialogue is rusha is pushing. as the south korean president also would like to have more conversation, more dialogue. >> there certainly has been some discussion about changing tack. the effort to isolate north korean has p put it in a pace of all -- there is discussion about perhaps changing tack on dealing with north korea but that's not

going to be easy. now within the past hour or so, they have put out their response to the u.n. sanctions and has been condemning those sanctions as vicious and has also vowed to retaliate. so it will be a tough road ahead even if they do go down the path of association. >> pressure to do more, you understand that trade between the two nations, the question here, can china in fact do more to make a difference on north korea? >> china can do more. the question i think willing is china to go after -- how willing is china to push north korea that far? it is a very delicate balance and we have to remember they have their own relationship to manage. china does not want north korea to collapse. that would mean they've got a disaster on their border. what they want to do is manage all these relationships.

relationship with north korea where they have influence and can put pressure but also manage the relationship with the u.s. and keep washington happy. so a very delicate situation and we have to recognize that all these players have their own agenda as well. it's not go tock easy to get china to do exactly what u.s. skants wants. >> jean lee. thank you. we appreciate your perspective on this. we will see what happens as leaders can meet and perhaps talk more. u.s. deputy attorney general is speaking out against the reputation of rush why's meddling in the u.s. election. this is after reports a grand jury has been convened as part of the broeb. our boris sanchez has more for us. >> it is a fascinating perspective to listen.

he reveals about how he feels about the investigation but also how he feels about bob mueller, the man he hired to carry out this investigation after the attorney general, jeff sessions, recused himself. the telling most telling portion of this is when he talks about the state of the investigation is in and whether or not convening a grand jury to listen to testimony or to review evidence says anything about this state of the invest quotation and whether there could be a recommendation for charges for special counsel. rosenstein says no, this is a natural part of the investigation. that is ongoing. we should not read into the fact that a grand jury is now con veined. they goes on to talk about the scope of the investigation. there's been criticism after reports they were looking into the president's finances in the past. the argument was made by some of

the president supporters. that's out of the scope of the investigation in which the focus would be contacts between the russian government and people within the trump campaign. at least that was the allegation. rosenstein made the case that bob mueller is aware of the scope of the investigation and he is staying focused on that. listen to what he said. >> special counsel is subject to rules of investigation into the department of justice. we do get into fishing. this may be the subject of the investigation. we don't review that publicly. we understand the specific scope of the investigation and so no it's not a fishing competition. >> another thing that rosen stein added in the interview, is if bob mueller came across something that was outside the scope and felt to move forward with an indictment he would then

have to seek authority from the acting attorney general. essentially kg rod rosenstein for permission to recommend charges if something were found outside of the initial scope of the investigation. >> thank you for the report. a u.s. advocacy group is planning to file for support. trying to ban transgender ruling in a tweet. land to legal calls it a discriminatory attack on the lgbqt which is unreasonable. cnn's ian lee has the story for us. >> reporter: happy today, but a couple of years ago he hit rock bottom. >> i never told anyone before. i barely told myself.

i was terrified. >> back then, yahuti was a fema female army captain and didn't feel right in her skin. so when she went to her army officer and said she wanted to transition into man. >> i cried from the moment we came out of it and announced okay. and that was it. >> yahuti credit israel's army for helping him make the transition. today he marchs for transgender rights at jerusalem's gay pride parade. israel says roughly 60 transgender serve in the country's military. in the united states future of transgender soldiers could change. it started with a tweet. from president donald trump. ordering a ban on transsoldiers in the u.s. military. that message left thousands of u.s. military personnel in limbo.

yahuti said any notion transgender people aren't up to the task. >> if i'm not tough, then i don't know what i am. i won't be here if i wasn't tough enough. i wouldn't be alive. >> israel also grapples with equality. gay couples still can't marry. religious use conservatives view it as abomination. murdered two years ago at this gay prize parade by extremists. while the community fights for rights in society, the israeli army, they've been accepted. as for president trump, yuhuti went to get him -- >> they love their country like i love mine. >> a country where soldiers can march the beat of their own drum. ian lee, cnn, jerusalem. >> thank you. still ahead, italian police say

a british model held captive in ma lan thmilan. we learn details about her abduction, next.

welcome back to newsroom. i'm george howell. a british model is said to be safely back home in the united kingdom after a terrifying ordeal. a 20-year-old woman was kidnapped when she went to a supposed photo shoot in milan last month. authorities say she was held captive for a week. and then was to be sold to the highest bitter for auction on the dark web. a polish national was arrested in connection with the kidnapping. police say the suspect told the mod's age ept he w model's agent he was working for

an a group that operates on the dark web. >> th >> translator: this person said he worked for a group called black death group. there is a roort from 2015 that notes the existence of this group in the deep web, the hidden web. >> so we're learning more about the suspect and more about the dark web. cnn is following this story from rome. barbie, what do we know about from investigators? >> investigators are focused on one thing. that's to find out whether or not the polish person is really affiliated with wlblack death, which supposedly operates a trafficking ring on the dark web. he was just bragging about it saying that's why he kidnapped this woman. he apparently told her he had made more than 15 million euro

in the sale of women like her to people for sexual slavery. investigators want to know if he made that up or if he is in fact part of this group. they are still looking for his accomplices. there were people with him according to the mold he'll testimony when she was kidnappings and they want to find it there are other girls just like her somewhere being captured. george? >> is there a big concern now given what we know, details of this case, there could be other people who are out there who might have been abducted and still unaccounted for. given this case. >> that is the big question. trying to peruse the dark web sides, difficult to find out where they are located, they are seeing other pictures of women. what they don't know is if it is

some of the girls that posted on their own social networking. are those pictures taken without their knowledge. are they held captive and pictures are taken and used for the purpose of selling the women into sexual slavery. it is a big concern and investigators are very, very serious about looking for other women who might be victims. >> very concerning and disturbing for sure. barbie, thank you for the report. we will see in touch with you as you learn more on this case. still ahead, a maurijuana company wants to turn a place into a pot paradise. we will hear
