president trump in warsaw earlier today. >> the fundamental question of our time is whether the west has the will to survive. >> reporter: at a memorial to a polish uprising against the nazis, the president committed to defending countries in the nato alliance. >> we stand firmly behind article 5. >> reporter: something he had been unwilling to say when he visited nato headquarters in may. the president also delivered his sharpest criticism of russia to date: >> we urge russia to cease its destabilizing activities in ukraine and elsewhere, and its support for hostile regimes, including syria and iran. >> reporter: but earlier in the day, mr. trump suggested he is unlikely to confront russian president vladimir putin about moscow's meddling in the 2016 election. the two leaders will meet tomorrow. >> i think it was russia, but i think it was probably other people and/or countries.

and i see nothing wrong with that statement. nobody really knows. >> reporter: the u.s. needs russia's support to put new international sanctions on north korea. >> they are behaving in a very, very dangerous manner, and something will have to be done about it. >> reporter: in the wake of its recent missile test, mr. trump was asked if he's ready and willing to take military action? >> i don't like to talk about what i have planned, but i have some pretty severe things that we're thinking about. >> reporter: the threats posed by north korea will be a topic when presidents trump and putin meet tomorrow. james, they're also going to discuss a u.s. proposal to collaborate with russia to end the bloody war in syria. >> brown: margaret brennan in hamburg, thank you so much. back in washington, the government ethics watchdog who raised red flags about trump family business dealings, resigned today. then, he talked to our julianna >>ldman.

interest is always looming out there. >> reporter: walter shaub has been a unique voice. as the government's ethics chief, he's taken on his boss, president donald trump, publicly, but today he gave up. >> i really feel like i've achieved all i can achieve under the current circumstances. >> reporter: he says that unless president trump eliminates all financial ties to his businesses, the american people can never be certain his policy decisions are based on what's best for the country. do you think the president and his family are using the office to enrich themselves? >> i can't know what their intention is. i know that the effect is, that there's an appearance that the businesses are profiting from his occupying the presidency. >> reporter: but at this point, it sounds like you're saying, you can't be sure. >> you can't be sure. so it almost doesn't matter, but whether they are profiting or not, america should have the right to know what the motivations of its leaders are.

>> reporter: in previous administrations, the office of government ethics operated under the radar. shaub changed that shortly after the election when he unleashed a series of sarcastic tweets prodding mr. trump to divest his assets. >> in many ways, what i was really trying to do with that is, "a," communicate with the president using the medium i saw him communicate in. >> reporter: but he never spoke with the president, and shaub said the white house counsel dismissed his concerns. >> i can actually run my business and run government at the same time. >> reporter: ultimately, mr. trump handed control of his private businesses to his sons, and noted there are no conflict of interest laws for a president. his attorney also said he couldn't sell off his assets, because he would lose money. >> i have no sympathy for that. i mean, he's in a position where he's going to have to send young men and women to die in combat, potentially, or risk their lives at least. they're paying a much higher price. so, no, it's not too much to ask for somebody to incur a bit of a financial loss, if they have to sell things off.

>> reporter: shaub's term was set to end in january, but he said he got a job with a non- partisan ethics group and felt like he could have a greater impact outside of government. james, in a statement, the white house said it accepted his resignation and appreciated his service. >> brown: julianna goldman in washington, thank you. and julianna will have more about this story tomorrow on "cbs this morning." with congress in recess, many members are back home, including the republican speaker of the house, paul ryan. here's dean reynolds. >> reporter: speaker ryan has been criticized for not being accessible to his constituents in wisconsin's first district. >> hey, everybody, how you doing? >> reporter: some voters have even held mock town halls without him. in february, they posed their questions to an empty chair. but today, ryan's schedule included what were billed as employee town halls. and at w.p.c. technologies in oak creek, that meant most questions were selected in advance by a company official.

this was the first one: >> if you had to make a decision between attending an october regular season packers game or a brewers world series game, which would you attend? >> reporter: for the record, he said probably the brewers. but there were no questions about russia, no questions about the president or his tweets, which ryan has criticized. no questions about the investigations of the administration, here or at a second stop in racine. there was one about the office of the presidency, though: >> just wondering if you have any plans for running for the president in the future? >> no. none at all. that's an easy one to answer. (£aughter) absolutely not. >> reporter: also easy to answer was the one question about the effects of the house health care reform on the workers here: since all of them are covered by their employers, there's no effect. >> 50 million people get their insurance from their job, like everybody here does, and so this doesn't affect that marketplace. >> reporter: and thus, no real need for ryan to defend what polls say is an unpopular piece of legislation.

we wanted to ask the speaker if he thought tightly-controlled events like these were really a true test of his accessibility, but didn't get very far. mr. speaker? can we ask you a question? >> got to go. >> reporter: presumably, the speaker will be more forthcoming tomorrow, james, because that's when he's scheduled a press conference in madison, the state capital. >> brown: dean reynolds in racine, wisconsin, thank you. cbs overnight news will be right now back.

attorney. how difficult is it for the family to not know where she is? >> no one told them it's 100%. no one told them we have the body yet. in their minds, they believe yingying might be alive, somewhere. >> reporter: police say they do not believe that zhang is still alive, but they have not explained why. christensen's attorneys say he has not yet entered a plea, but when he does, james, they tell me he'll be pleading not guilty. >> brown: anna werner, thank you so much. we turn now to business news. did you know that volvo is latin for "i roll?" now the swedish car maker is about to roll differently. here's transportation correspondent kris van cleave. >> reporter: volvo built its brand on safety, but its legacy may be as the automaker that brought about the end of the gasoline-powered engine.
