i mean, if it takes three months -- and who knows what the un, the wheels of the un work remarkably slowlyy. so who knows with them. will that put us at a disadvantage? because the closer and closer he gets, maybe he holds some power here, even if we have that missile system on the ground in south korea to intercept those missiles. >> he does. by the way, you're very kind to the un to put it that way. the fact is, it's a lot worse than that. but that's why i would start politically, i would form a political area treaty organization similar to nato. i would have south korea, japan, australia, new zealand, philippines, thailand, and other countries out there form not only against north korea expansion but chinese expansion. i would start moving in more missiles. i would put our nuclear retaliatory capability on ground alert that we used to have there when i was a dcs operations and intelligence for the pacific. i would put that back in, of course, with the approval of south korea. i would start increasing our naval and air forces in the region and so i would start doing those things now to l

china holds the veto power in the un security council. ina's agreement to the sanctions reflect that china understands the gravity of a pyongyang nuclear threat. the question is if those threats will work. remember that this is the third set of sanctions imposed by the u.n. security council in 18 months. i put the question to the australian finance foreign minister over the weekend. listen to what she had to say. a step in theinly right direction. the united states has been upling on all nations to hold the un security council resolution on sanctions. overnight, we have seen great progress, not only on the permanent members of the security council, unanimous on this point, but they are extensive sanctions. there seems to be a lot of confidence among be international community and the delegates here at the meeting that those sanctions will work. haidi: there were bilateral talks. did anything come out of that meeting? the meeting was not privy to that meeting, but we were told that the chinese foreign minister and his counterpart in the san

the un security council approval for new sanctions on north korea. espondent yogita limaye is in the south korean capital, seoul, for us. has there been any reaction from north korea? well, it is sunday morning here and we haven't had a reaction yet as far as this resolution is concerned it is significant because it aims to cut the exports from north korea by about $1 billion. coal is the biggest export for north korea, extremely important. and this un sanction bans the export of coal from north korea. will it actually stop the missile testing? now, that is the big question. china, which is north korea's biggest trade partner, already stopped importing coalfrom north korea in february and coal exports from north korea have since then dropped dramatically, which has been affecting the country financially. but we have still seen the missile testing going on. there we re the missile testing going on. there were two tests in july the missile testing going on. there were two tests injuly alone. the missile testing going on. there were two tests in july alo

from the un, in new york, nick bryant reports. a show of ambition and menace, north korea last month testing an intercontinental ballistic missile that appeared capable of reaching the american mainland, west coast cities such as los angeles, and even beyond. it is this kind of brinkmanship that has intensified diplomacy at the united nations security council, and led to a deal between the united states and china, north korea's ally, to impose tough new sanctions. this is the most stringent set of sanctions on any country in a generation. these sanctions will cut deep, and in doing so, will give the north korean leadership a taste of the depravation they have chosen to inflict on the north korean people. every country must ensure that these measures are adhered to. every country must live up to our word. this time, there is too much at stake. we simply cannot afford to fail. most of north korea's export trade goes across this border, into china, and pyongyang could be deprived of roughly a third of its export income, the sanctions
