good evening that will lead is up to date cautiously welcoming the announcement of a possible meeting between us presidents on the north korean leader. which it's hoped will result in easing of tensions on the korean peneninsula. we what appears to be a dramatic breakthrough president donald trump said they. had to meet kim jong own face to face for the first ever summit between the two nations. possibly taking place at the end of may. exchange number insults during the course of the last year. anand it also

raised fears of. warfare between the two. nations apple making this announcement older more dramatic. white house press secretary said a short while ago. this such a meeting between trump and kim wouldn't be without certain preconditions his what she said last year regular milis between the us and its allies south korea will continue. white house press secretary speaking that overall his ex while white house correspondent phillip crowther who joins us now from. oakland in california for the video face to face talks between those two men surely comes and end of several long caffrey

orchestrated rounds of talks and negotiations and as far as we know that hasn't been happening. has its own house this. talk of a face to face discussions actually come about s so small. taken almt exclusively by uss presiden. donald trump w with maybe. without necessarily listening in detaill to his closestt a adviserss w white ththough today insnsisting t important people weree in te room when the south korean delegation was at the white house yesterday that includeded the national security advisiser. for the soututh korean president who of course made that momentous announcement jusut outsidee o of the west wing white house says. that this

is something that the administstration has been working from now until may.s the dates when this whitete house believes that such a meeting could happen but as you just heard from the press secretary at the white house things seems seems to have changed somewewhat. overnight or the very least the white house is getting that little bit more clear on what needs to happen for this m meeting to actually take placece in may that now seem to b be preconditions n behalf of the united states. this white house wants to see concrete and verifiable actions on behalf o of the northh korean regime for any meeting to happen in may and what service on as the white house press secretary mentioned just a short while ago. is that what the white house wants to see is the committee nuclear radiation of thehe korean peninsusulat

has s long beeeen the pointf view a and the sonons o of s adadministration and previos administrations but what this one w wants to see. is concrete steps by the north korean regime towards dean the nuclear radiation outut whwhat exactly t that meaeat kind of promises the north korean regime. will have to make all k kind of actions c announcement is that the idea that donald might even be. in the offing because if you. look at the situation we're in right now the dial up until this point if you could even call it dialogue. between president trump and kim goldman has been pretty ststrange doesn't it. yeah absbsutely you calm

really cold a dialoguee i if ththere isn't any kind o of directct phone c called iraq meeting betweenen the two of them have been a lot of insults these two have traded insulults and they he done so. largely on twitter but also in the public sphere if you will that have been insults on twitter from donald trump was canan go in cacalling him a moron a bad dude as well t then thehere. the m most sererious stuff t we had for e example a juryy the w wle transfefer media f you will of the un geneneral assembly. when he says thahat he was essentialllly threatening north korea with its total destruction andnd calls came joe moon and he's s supposed toto be i in may. thee rockn full that's in thehe cabinet room a at the white house he

had s said that the united stateses would come down wih fire and fury olmosos i i ss of course a dictator inststalledd from hasn't exactly use off w words that would show thatt kind of admiratition butut there isa little bit of resespect towd the strorong m m. and we see that beforee from donald trump's willll the likes of ththe russian president vladimir putin for example any which way t they have bn so s so many insnsults of is seems. very very improbable that these t two would meets and even shake hands hencece why this is such a surprise coming fromm the white h hoe agagain though thehey seem o have been pre conditions n w put in place b by the whitete house. twelelve hours or so off it in house it was made by the white house this meeting would take place

that seems to be a little bit of doubt right now. yeah even in the time we've been talking to you that we're hearing. from the white house the president trump is easy into the chinese president xi jinping at both of t them a welcoming at t e prospect off dogs we just have to see. if rush outbree unequal sides to respect humanitarian pulls in the fighting. looked as without borders meanwhile says that more than one thousand people have been killeled in that a area of syria d durig these past three weeks. over what we can because the president was not include also joins us now from the roots. am thank you for speaking to us it appears that. the violence broke out
