richard haass has wonderful timing. trump order but his wonderful book on the world in disarray was incredibly well-timed to come out here within. is the republican experiment writing it shipped over the last few weeks? >> the short answer is no. the world hasn't comes down. washington has added to it and the dynamic between the two is a world in disarray and it would have gone up. tom: i thought of you when i saw this. i was at the meeting of the council on foreign relations years ago when you relaunched your website, which to me is the place to go to get a briefing on foreign policy. all the president does is what cable tv. you are a beast of cable tv. , what would of it you say to president trump to wean him away from eight screens a morning? many things but it tends not to be reflective. it tends to change the urgent rather than necessarily the importance. it is one of the reasons we will get comfortable in this relation with the television -- with the intelligence community. francine: how are people in the u.s. rea

richard haass held the same position during george w. bush term. he is the author of the book, "a world in disarray." when trump met obama, that first meeting at the white house, it was trump said obama talked to me about something very important and urgent. we learned from reporting it was that north korea was likely to do a ballistic test. now it's happened. why is this one important? they've done several. what does this mean? >> this test isn't important. it's north korea's version of identification. north korea will get good fluff for ballistic missile technology. it will marry it with the nuclear weapons that they have. if anyone -- >> right now they have the missile. the next thing is to be able to take the nuclear weapon, which they have and put it on the missile. >> right. with the reentry technology and have the missile at significant range. the general estimate is they are a couple of years away. if anyone wanted a world of disarray, this is it. this is a medium size power but it's real power now. it's got all these conventional military

joining us now from new york is dr richard haass, president of the council on foreign relations and authorn disarray. thank you forjoining us. america is ina thank you forjoining us. america is in a process of winding down wars in afghanistan and iraq. why go now for a9% afghanistan and iraq. why go now for a 9% increase in the defence budget? well, for a couple of reasons, without defending every dollar of that increase. this effort against terrorism is not going to end, it's going to continue in iraq and syria, it will probably continue in two or three other dozen countries of the middle east and africa. this is an open—ended struggle. the united states has to prepare for more conventional conflicts, possibly something with north korea, possibly with something in europe involving russia. possibly with something iran in the middle east. we have to prepare the american military for the full spectrum of possible conflicts from the sort of thing we have seen in the middle east in recent yea rs, have seen in the middle east in recent years, but not as large scale, to all sorts of more traditi

richard haass author of "a world of disarray," also met with president trump during transition. secretary of state rex tillerson staying at a sanitarium 30 minutes away from where the players are at the g-20 and bloomberg describes it as, you know, security agents in a parking lot, elderly people in wheelchairs coming for their spa treatments. is this a logistical issue or reflective of a state department behind the 8-ball right now? >> it's a logistical issue on the surface but underneath it all i think it reflects two serious things. one is the lack of support at the state department. rex tillerson is essentially home alope. there's no staff. he wasn't able to get the deputy he wanted so that's one issue. second of all, it highlights the basic issue of the relationship between the secretary of state and this white house. no secretary of state can be successful if the world does not think he speaks and speaks authoritatively for the president. let me just say every day that goes by with this sort of thing happening, it begins to create doubts and doubts are poisonous for the ab

one interesting piece of information, richard haass saying that north korea is likely able to reach thewith nuclear-capable missiles during mr. trump's tenure at the white house, of that is causing some interesting thoughts and retrospectives as to what mr. trump has to do with regards to north korea and its solidarity with the japan. before that happened, it was slightly more of an easier time between the two of them, talking finances between the two countries am a bilateral ties, so basically talking about using ,heir common love of golf talking about business ties while enjoying a bit of time on the green. mr. trump as you would expect tweeted and said that they were having a really great time. look at that. a high five there, hanging out with prime minister shinzo abe obey. the request of japan, we have guys president mike pence and taro aso taking the new economic dialogue could what do we know about this? ramy: it seems like this the first babybe steps on the way to something that could replace the tpp. it is a three-pronged approach, and it includes, let's see, policy,onetary coo
