south korea, right? south korea didn't sign. but i'm going to tell you, because they wanted to see unification. there is unfinished business. the american general who signed the armistice was very somber. this was not a parade the war is over. he said, i cannot find it in me rather wen this hour, must to the difficult endeavor to turn this armistice to the advantage of mankind and any hope we have right now must be diluted with the recognition that we have unrelenting effort. i thought about it, what would he think now? well, i think in many ways we did turn this armistice to the advantage of mankind and see that in the rise of the republic of korea and see that in a powerful way. it's a great story and one in which we as americans can take satisfaction. very unexpected. it's also maintained an imperfect but nonetheless peace that allowed the rise of south korea but the rise of china. stability in the nade which is quite historic. so, you know, how do we build on that? and some of that is the feeling i have, well, what did you t

south korea is becoming impatient. they are eager to do more but because of sanctions they are quite constrained. so they have united states ar quite impatient. the negatives cannot go and wine and dine and come back. c d and certainly the project is important. so how much patience do you have? if it is continuous and to be really patient in those projects. >> it is like one bed and three dreams. looks like south korea forward. that is the main danger to be avoided. that we have the same understanding of the definition. so what to do to forward? and in my view he buys is not a realistic goal. eventually we have to make north korea normal state without nuclear weapons. if they want to be a normal state. that is a weird challenge but i have been arguing surgery now the negotiations should be but at the same time we have to continue a military deterrent against north korea. because south korea again once to forward so they could lift some sanctions and by my view we really have to control the pace on the nuclear french. a

it's i mean we can't go to south korea we can go to. and it's dali country in the world we can go to without at least. claim asylum because obviously if we go to another country and stay there with. our visa expired and we will be stuck in jail or deportation center because in order to be deported back to me because you visa expires and then you have to go to a neighboring country because that is in that and there was there's not there's a direct flight we can go to that you know we can go back you know because of the war anyway but if let's say you want to go back you'll be in jail because you need to get a reason to go to a neighboring country police have you smoke bombs to disperse rival protest groups and the u.s. state of oregon. right group called the patriot running in portland when they were challenged by anti fascist protesters the crowds through fireworks eggs and other objects at each other forcing riot police to move in sunday is election day in mexico they left wing andreas lopez obrador is the front runner in the president

seven buddhist mountain temples in south korea have been added to unesco's list of world heritage sites one of them is the country's only surviving wouldn't go to great places been examining their historical significance. the foothills of the song the sun mountain are extremely tranquil there is an absence of noise and. the need to pray is break the silence hit. home. it is the perfect sight for a place of worship so serene that buddhist monks travel from all over south korea just to meditate he said. geographically speaking but juicer is located in the center of south korea and our space is vast compared to other temples not only that we host the flower garden sutra that you can say serves as the identity of korean buddhism. some traditions of being carried forward since the monastery was built nearly one of a half thousand years ago. the unesco world heritage listing establishes the outstanding value of a site where its conservation is recognized to be in the interests of all humanity south korea has twelve world heritage listed sites one natural and eleven cultural and wants to add m

south korea has our latest stuff. they have ground attack systems from germany. north korea should give up its missiles, is someone going to provide them with an air force? who would you suggest do that? that is the first question. what i suggest is delivery systems for nuclear weapons be a part of the list of things that should be eliminated. if there are missiles in north korea that are not nuclear capable, i think we could put them in one category to not address immediately in this problem set. scud derivedeir systems for the purpose of delivering nuclear weapons, you get rid of them. you deal with the other conventional weapons through peace process, and there can be reciprocal steps there. i understand your point about reciprocity, but as a realistic proposition the united states and south korea are not going to invade north korea. but the opposite has been the case. the north korean perspective, they will say we cannot give up our defenses, but what are the missiles really for? they are for nuclear weapons delivery. a wmd free zone, you have to deal with it.

south korea has advanced fighter jets. they have attack systems from germany. north korea should give up its missiles. is someone going to provide them with an air force? who would you suggest do that? mark: the delivery systems for nuclear weapons be a part of the list of things that should be eliminated. if there are missiles in north korea not nuclear capable, we can put them in one quarter going -- in one category. almost all of their scud -- derived -- scud- you get rid of them. you get rid of the other weapons to the peace process tony was talking about. i understand your point. the realistic proposition, united states and south korea are not going to invade north korea. the opposite has been the case. from a north korean perspective, they would say we cannot give up all of our defenses. what are their missiles for? zone, youlearization have to deal with it. >> you had a second question? with had discussion chemical and biological weapons. what the zinc of the global -- fundsing off cutting off tuberculosis drugs to north korea -- what do you think of the

and south korea. in very concrete terms, do you think there is a baseline in terms of what denuclearization would mean. >> i don't think the parties are near reaching any consensus and probably will not be able to achieve that. the only way to think about this that makes sense is for every passing month there will be something dramatic done on the question of denuclearizing north korea. if you build on steps one more dramatic each time that we can move closer and closer to a day when the peninsula will be free of nuclear weapons. a timeline is wholly unrealistic. i have heard from some north koreans that the next presidential election may be a good time to make some serious , building on some confidence building measures, steps of denuclearization, and something dramatic on the eve of the next presidential election, which is the way north korea usually conducts business. >> thank you very much. >> a lot of the discussion seems to focus on how the different players will come to the table. i'm wondering

as south korea's only listed natural heritage site chosen for its geological features and ecological value. the volcanic island contains messy of lava tubes deep beneath the earth as well as significant marine and coastal wildlife. on saturday the forty second session of the world heritage committee voted unanimously to include all seven south korean mountain temples on the listing craig leeson al-jazeera national park south korea that was fifty years since world powers reached a landmark deal to bring an end to the nuclear arms race and you can on proliferation treaty was designed to stop the spread of nuclear weapons and eventually eliminate them completely but some more the danger of nuclear war is greater now than it's been and a long time one hundred has war. it was twenty three years after the us dropped an atomic bomb on hiroshima six years after the cuban missile. crisis five nuclear armed nation signed a deal a nine hundred sixty eight the brought the world back from the brink of a potentially catastrophic war the us russia u.k. france and china undertook in good faith to gi

and you mentioned china, south korea, the international community. everybody will be saying i shouldn't say that. i will let you answer. maybe everybody will say this deal on the table is better than no deal. here i am most interested in your analysis of america. is that possible and do you agree that is where it's at and is that something that we on our side have given that we've never said that think about complex >> north korea in various ways over the years has sent -- and i heard actually individually that in a way, their model is india. india develops a nuclear program as does pakistan. they like this idea more than pakistan, but india or pakistan develop nuclear programs. they said they will never accept it, you can't be a nuclear state, but it's kind of went on and i think that is the hope for north korea. that is the danger. i think it is a challenge and i don't underestimate it to create the circumstances where the regime concludes that it is safer and better off without nuclear weapons than with them. i don't know if that's possible. as we

south korea, the us, north korea and of course the other countries that have a big stake in this.t want to prejudge how many years, but it will take time. south korea's foreign minister speaking to our very own babita sharma. let's take a look at some of the day's other news. the white house says president trump plans to ask president putin, to visit washington later this year. the invitation comes while president trump faces accusations that he failed to stand up to the russian leader at a summit in finland on monday. in an interview with the american network, cnbc, mr trump rejected the claim. look at the sanctions i put on, look at the diplomats i threw out, look at all these things i have done. nobody else has done what i've done. obama didn't do it. obama was a total patsy for russia. look at the statement he made, he thought the mic‘s were off, stupid statement, nobody cares about that. getting along with president putin, along with russia is a positive, not a negative. now with that being said, if that doesn't work out, i will be the worst enemy he has ever had! this was th

troops from south korea. to see the president get up and say i'm all in favor of it, must have come as a shock to the north koreans and the south koreans. there is a lot of talk about how the south korean government wants to see these negotiations with north korea succeed. it is a so-called prerogative government that has a lot of interest in trying to calm things down with north korea. all true. i think this government of moon jae-in also is concerned of managing the u.s. relationship and if we have a situation where the u.s. is talking to the north koreans of our deployment of south korea, we have a problem on how people are managing that relationship. >> before we end, i want to play you a sound bite, part of an interview of john bolton of how hong it would take to denuclearize. it's a much more aggressive timeline you gave us. you thought at least two years, if at all. the cia people are telling secretary pompeo that they may never give up their 20 or 60 nuclear weapons until the end of the process if at a

south korea has since 2016 contended that the women defected. this has again long been an issue of contention. but george, this is the first time that north korea is using the subject of these waitresses and tying them to the issue of the reunions. so this is a moment where everyone's really sitting back and watching and waiting to see whether or not north korea is ready to continue to act in good faith here when it comes to the agreements that they've made with south korea and also ultimately with the united states. george? >> the demands are flying back and forth. alexandra field following it all live in seoul, south korea. thank you. >>> there has been another shooting at a church in the united states. this happened in the state of nevada, and one person was killed. >> in fallon, nevada. officials say a man walked into the mormon church on sunday afternoon. that man then firing a gun and then walked home. police say that this man, 48-year-old john kelly o'connor, later surrendered to police. the police chief talked about kelly's possible motiv

for more on this story cnn's alexander field is live in seoul, south korea. alexandra, frustration, again, from this private source about the president's mood on this. but at least one bright spot, north korea seems determined to continue with these talks, which must be resonating well in the region there. >> that is coming from one source close to the negotiations. that's information given to cnn's will ripley. but certainly there's been frustration on all sides of this, george, because we have seen no concrete steps, no concrete actions since the summit toward denuclearization. we know that north korea continues to bristle and chafe under the heavy economic sanctions that have been leveled against them and in the absence of progress toward denuclearization you've recently just in the last few days had the u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo reen force the fact that those sanctions must stay firmly in place and in fact going even further by saying that countries need to do better in implementing those sanctions. so what you have seen from north korea is some

south korea and japan. and convey the details of my trip earlier this month. i also had the opportunity to meet with the u.n. secretary, secretary-general, to discuss a variety of topics. the countries of the security council are united on the need verification of the denuclearization of north korea as agreed to by the leader. members of the un security council and by extension all u.n. member states have unanimously agreed to fully enforce sanctions on north korea. we expect them to continue to honor those commitments. when sanctions are not enforced, the prospect of successful denuclearization of north korea are diminished. right now, north korea is illegally smuggling petroleum products. ship to ship transfers are the most prominent means by which this is happening. these transfers happen it -- happened at least 89 times in the first five months of this year and they continue to occur. the united states reminds every member state of its responsibility to stop illegal transfers and we urge them to step up there were -- reinforcement efforts as well. we must

but south korea's foreign minister, kang kyung—wha, warns the process will take time.e isjust technically a very complicated one, and we need to give it time. we need to think through the past experience of dealing with north korea on these issues, to ensure that we make progress that is not reversible. the north koreans clearly understand what is at stake, what is expected when they come and declare before the world, at the highest level, complete denuclearisation. do you trust his word? "trust" is a tricky word. we go by action, and we go by the stated commitment that he has made several times in the international community. there has been a lot of criticism that the issue of human rights abuses in north korea has not been directly addressed. why have you not addressed that? it doesn't mean that we're not concerned. i think it is entirely appropriate that the dire human rights situation in north korea continues to be on the international agenda, and we are very much a part of that discussion. is it at the bottom of the list? as government to government, and trying to

have to deal with two very strong allies south korea and japan who have very different approaches to north korea and that in itself is a diplomatic tightrope. to walk it is and look i mean the message from by south korea and japan today is a united message they're both thanking the u.s. for being the bridge between north korea and the region and they have again emphasized that sanctions will not be removed until the north korea acts or or delivers on its commitment from the singapore summit but certainly has been a very strong and united message from japan and south korea as well as a pompei o suggesting that the partnership is good and strong well for the moment so we'll leave it there and we'll come back to that situation develops in seoul. and to our other top story that we're following rescue workers in thailand have stepped up preparations ahead of an attempt to free a football team from a flooded cave emergency crews say they're fighting against the weather and time as they work out a plan to bring out the boys now the youngsters and their coach have been trapped underground sin
