2:35 pm
is not possible with the man bereft of reason. if i respected supreme leader comrade kim jong un gives the order i will become the nuclear war had to smash into the u. s. mainland that next if he's also but it's not. the army says plans to attack warm should be completed middle ghost and will await kim jong-un's approval. well that's what we're about that i'm joined in the street area by issuing economies in north asia experts at the asia center thanks for being with us tonight thank you good evening at a festival. i mean how credible are these threats from pyongyang i mean we have to assume this regime is not suicidal if they. love it to attack u. s. or a at some gun u. s. territory they they would be completely wiped off the map with that. i sing a true swift is keeping minds of the north korea. is a country which considers
2:36 pm
itself sbc h.. but as the us and to other countries japan. and south korea. so since nineteen nineteen fifty three. the fifth kept sister there. so that's why i think that they are very coherent in zepa reciente we'd be korean in jeopardy see. but that's the same time of course as you said zealots who seller suicidal. so they won't. to to remain as they are and i so situation no economic situation in north korea became a. little bit better scenes two or three years and especially there is no nothing comparable to what happens. in the nineties. i i don't think he will launch sort of the fire. onda was a u. s. or south korea or japan. what about they send accidental war scenario i would go so many mixed messages coming out of the united states at the moment on trump's i want thing and? his actress say

2:38 pm
think you see if i can paraphrase the former emperor of japan i think that that is the us we. have to accept the unacceptable. and. one zero you will accept his ex except that unacceptable. the situation would be to be a little bit better sing. we live at it so that the track china in the sixties and seventies when the u. s. were very harsh and z. exchange be to words. we use the chinese. leaders and in cm they finally came to beijing and semi business them is said no mori relationships. maybe set so the right approach for north korea north korea wants to be treated as an equal to so yes. as long as the us metric no score as an equal the situation remained very vulgar tied in very difficult. for the united states has to learn to live. with a nuclear armed north korea that continues with rentals which was how it was one more because we have many countries in the world.
