in fact jim jong-un signed the guest book at the truce village in the dmz writing new history begins now what everyone was waiting for was a joint declaration from the two gentlemen, which would include some statement of peace for potentially ending the korean war because these two countries have been technically still at war until today that joint statement came out just a couple minutes ago saying that there will not be any war on the korean peninsula. we are declaring that complete denuclearization will be achieved. north korea and south korea will end the korean war, and we would like to change the total order on the korean peninsula. this is all sounding very good i think it's worth noting that we have seen these joint declarations before. because since 2000 this country has had two summits, both of them ended in joint declarations of peace, and then nothing came of it. so we don't know whether or not this will be different, because we don't know the intentions of kim jong-un. if he's serious about peace. history has told us in the past that north korea has not necessarily wante

juliette: donald trump has signaled a shift with his stance against jim -- kim jong-un.ths after the riding the leader as rocket man, he now says he is honorable and hopes they meet soon. tone, he hadarmer a strong message for pyongyang. president trump: very simple, they get rid of their nukes. it would be easy to make a simple deal and claim victory. i wanted to get rid of their nukes. juliette: steve mnuchin will head to china and the next few days to begin direct talks on trade. president trump says he thinks there is a good chance of a deal being done. proposeds he has billions of dollars of tariffs on chinese goods, and says they will take effect as planned. the european union would be prepared to offer britain a better trade deal than the one that gave turkey. unionstays in the customs after brexit, and listens to views on trade policy. the official said britain would have to give up autonomy and would get a seat at the negotiating table, but it would be possible to stipulate a dialogue on trade, and the block would take a pragmatic approach to such a setup. globa

jong un right now. he needs to bring his population around. he has seen positive development. i think he is getting help from some of the neighbors. >> jim, if you were kim jong un why would you denuclearize? their definition of denuclearization seems to be different than ours. but you look at what happened to khadaffi it didn't end up well for him. >> it's seen as -- it's a matter of survival. we have often talked about how folks from the outside will say well kim is a crazy man, irrational behavior, et cetera. but folks who know north korea well say in fact north korea's security pols policy is very rational from their point of view. you'll hear this even from u.s. intelligence officials from their point of view they are outmatched. they're surrounded by rivals. basically have one sort of friend, china, in the world. so nuclear power, nuclear weapons are the best chance of survival. so when they say denuclearize really more likely to be talking about a freeze as gordon and mark -- general herteling were talking about. the question becomes what does the u.s. then -- does the u.s. freezes for exercising? how long? how comfortable is sout

he's trying to keep jim cong un off balance -- kim jong-un off balance with respect to the negotiationserpart, as someone who has been in negotiations before, not related to nuclear weapons, this is natural and right and proper for our president to be doing so. he's a master negotiator and this is clearly an area where he has shown significant progress, as compared to previous administrations. he's been cutting off financial avenues. >> yeah. >> so more moneys can be used to build out this nuclear weapons and delivery program. he's marshalled the power really of the world through the united nations and very strong economic sanctions like we haven't seen in some time and i think he's taking the appropriate pressure campaign course as we approach what i believe will be a negotiation that will lead to some reduction, hopefully the complete elimination of nuclear weapons on the korean peninsula. >> let's move on to what's happening today. the senate foreign relations committee will vote on whether mike pompeo's nomination as secretary of state can move forward. he could become the first nom

that statement from kim jong-un according to the state-run news agency. jim, you have been watching north korea for a long time. will, i'm going to get back to you in a moment, but this potentially is significant. actions speak louder than words, but these are positive statements from kim jong-un coming on the eve of the summit with the south korean president, president moon, and potentially with the president of the united states. >> let's remember where we were a few months ago. in august of 2017, the president famously warned of fire and fury against north korea. you had an increase in frequency of missile tests. and frankly, increasing success by north korean missile tests, great concern here. and open talk from the american president of a military strike on north korea. in a short time since then, you now have the statement from north korea, missile and nuclear tests stopped in advance of the summit. you have the summit coming up, plans in the next month or so, and north korea is putting denuclearization on the table. it is a remarkable step and will be

jim, always good to see you. what does this mean in your view? this announcement for talks with south korea, and then the planned meeting between kim jong-un and theay that there will be this freeze? >> well, i think it's pretty good news. now, this is the first step in a long process. they haven't even sat down and talked. the negotiation has not begun, and the north koreans have made or offers several changes in their position. so that tells me they're probably serious about this thing. and trying to lay the ground work for it to be a success. now, will it ultimately be successful? we won't know until we get into it. as far as things go, this is a pretty good beginning. >> north korea has made joantures but reniged on just about everything. do you think this time it's different? >> well, first, when you look at the history of past negotiationings, it's a little more complex than that. you could argue the u.s. was the one who took actions that led to the breakdown of the agreed framework. but certainly the most successful agreement we've had was the agreed framework. it lasted eight years. it froze long-range missile tests and a freeze on produci
