in the months before their singapore some us donald trump and kim jong un traded insults and threats of nuclear war but the leaders pulled back from the brink to deliver a diplomatic spectacle as an unexpected concession from the u.s. . we will be stopping the war games which will save us a tremendous amount of money or unless and until we see the the future negotiation is not going along like it should. the u.s. military exercises with south korea have infuriated p.r. nyang for decades trumps decision to suspend them surprise both u.s. allies in the region and top u.s. military officials critics said he was handing kim a major symbolic victory without getting any concrete commitments that north korea would denuclearize since the june so most terms diplomatic gamble has delivered some modest returns pyongyang has returned what it says are the remains of u.s. troops killed in the korean war it is also put its nuclear missile test on hold though the un's atomic watchdog says it's still developing nuclear weapons and it's the lack of progress on that front that could wind relations back

kim jong-un might come to the white house but kim jong-un recently executed agenda. we don't have to develop more nukes because we going to start developing nukes and that's what you get executed four. north korea has no intention of stopping the nukes. they have no intention of giving freedom to their people. so that is not the direction they're going to. i'm sure those politicians will keep the status quo that the people are suffering and the military will continue if we do not take action. >> host: yeonmi park, what are you doing today? >> guest: i'm a writer, and now i am running my own organization with my partner, my co-defector from north korea was actually at the state of the union that i'm trying to rescue my fellow defectors are trapped in china like myself was, that we rescue them to safety and we get information inside north korea so let the people inside north korea that they are slaves. and the rest of the world -- so that's what i do and i hope that i do know that. they change will not come from politicians. if ever diplomacy works, it will not work. t

of state mike pompeo, who leads the north korean negotiations, is now expressing caution over kim jong-un'se up nuclear weapons, just one day after president trump praised the north korean leader. pompeo telling reporters, chairman kim made a commitment to denuclearize. to the extent they are beying in -- behaving in a manner inconsistent with that, we can see we still have a ways to go to achieve the ultimate outcome we're looking for. president trump insisting it's all going well with kim. >> what i did with north korea was great. i got along great with chairman kim. i got along great. that's a good thing, not a bad thing, by the way. >> reporter: but there is still no denuclearization agreement and pompeo revealing days ago, kim is holding on to his vital weapons capabilities. >> yes, they continue to produce phfissile material. >> what kim is doing so far is not seen as significant by u.s. intelligence. test tunnels were blown up, but the u.s. believes the explosions were superficial and the tunnels could be rebuilt. some destruction of facilities seen in commercial satellite imagery is

>> and kim jong-un said yes. so the one-year period that we've talked about from the point where north korea makes the strategic decision to denuclearize is something that the north and south koreans have already agreed to. why is that significant? president trump has gone out of his way to hold the door open for kim jong-un. that's what the singapore meeting was about. >> but how long do you give the north koreans for their strategic decision to denuclearize? do they really understand what that means? should that have been written down? >> it's hard to believe they don't understand it. secretary pompeo has done extraordinary followup diplomacy after the singapore meeting. as i say, we expect that's going to resume in the near future. it's a hard task. i don't envy him but he's worked very hard at it to pursue president trump's goal of getting north korea denuclearized. >> and we'll be patient for how long? >> i think we're counting on north korea following through on the commitments that they've made. >> and i j

there is a strange difference in the leaderships between kim jong—un, donald trump and those within theirr sending back the remains of american soldiers, talking about his nice letter and kindness. at the same time, you have many within his administration deeply concerned. while north korea talked about denuclearise asian, actually they've seen no evidence of it and there is growing concern among the intelligence agencies that although pyongyang says it wants denuclearisation, it's not making any strides whatsoever towards it. what you're seeing is a strange two pronged approach from washington where donald trump still seems to say that he wants a relationship with kim jong—un, even sending say that he wants a relationship with kimjong—un, even sending a letter to him. yet at the same time, there are real worry is particularly about this idea that in the background to that singapore summit, after it's happened and there have been these warm words, that some countries are starting to breach sanctions. that is true with russia, mike pompeo is very concerned. there isa un mike pompeo is very

he had the negotiations with kim jong-un. he said things went well and they had a good rapport.e progress. mike pompeo saying over the weekend that north korea is in violation of the united nations resolution and urging to continue sanctions against north korea. north korea responding saying the united states is not living up to the end of the singapore summit and they may have to walk away with the pledge to denuclearization if they don't get sanctions relief or formal end of the korean war peace treaty we told you about. north korea feels the person they can negotiate with best is donald trump directly with their leader. that is what my sources are telling me they want to happen. they say the exchange of letters a good sign. we have to watch and see if they do set a date to sit down and what might come out of it in terms of concrete steps to denuclearization. >> thank you, will. >> and if that is the most important story of the day. steven seagal, all classics, now responding to the appointment as russia representative on russian humanitarian ties. seagal is humbled and honore

that the -- the praise of kim jong-un, thanking him for a, quote, kind action comes the same week thewashington post" broke the reporting that north korea is working on one, possibly two new missiles at a very critical location and factory and the fact that we just heard secretary of state mike pompeo testify under oath before the senate that, yes, north korea is still produce this fissile material. we know they're still enriching uranium. >> it's appropriate for the president to thank chairman kim for these actions. that's -- could be part of a negotiating technique to praise him, asking him to do more, continue to engage. but truthfully when you see the other more important elements of denuclearization which have not been accomplished and there doesn't appear to be movement toward that, in fact all indicators from the intelligence community and the state department is just the opposite of happen iing, it seems to be strange these kinds of effusive comments from the president to mr. kim are saying some of the things that -- are indicating some of the things that we're seeing. the one

the repatriation was agreed at june's summit between trump and kim jong-un. attending the arrival of the boxes in hawaii where the remains will be thoroughly examined was u.s. vice president mike pence. >> some have called the korean war forgotten war. but today we prove these heroes were never forgotten. today our boys are coming home. for more on this we crossed to senior research fellow. thank you for your time. just have significant is this repatriation of remains yet -- remains? event but iymbolic think it is also meaningful of a of a trust building process between the u.s. and dprk. this time kim jong-un -- which was included in the singapore agreement signed on june 12. but still i think this is beginning to long-term trust building process. -- good political achievement for president trump to gain as the u.s.rt people feel proud of those government actions. you talk about building trust. really this doesn't take the u.s. any closer to the main issue which is denuclearization. or does it? >> the negotiation for denuclearization process is really now ve

earlier this week trump himself received a letter from north korean leader kim jong-un. global affairs correspondent eli elise, what's the con tent of the letters? >> we don't know the context from kim jong-un or the letter from president trump to kim said, but now this is the new thing, fred. ever since the two met, it needs to be a letter from either leader to one another. it doesn't matter almost any more. these are just pleasantries. we think we should talk, we are committed to denuclearization. that's what the foreign minister and pompeo said. yes, we should talk to one another when they shook hands in that video, but this comes at a week where there's a lot of concern over north korea, it is not making good on commitments that kim jong-un made to president trump. you had a week in which there has been reports that north korea is continuing to develop its nuclear program. this week pompeo said north korea will be setting the pace of its denuclearization because there's not been any progress. even though there are pleasantries between the two leaders, it is true that

thoughts and concerns. >> i think this is the part of what i called the rodeo that we'll be in with kim jong-und the president will say mike won't be in north korea for upcoming meetings. the sanctions are going to continue. they are biting sanctions, kim jong-un will ultimately have to make the right decision. but the president was right, i believe, to meet with him. the president is very clear eyed on this. it may work, it may not work. we cannot allow north korea to proceed with nuclear weapons that will be stopped. >> eric: the sanctions may increase and get tighter. here is u.s. ambassador nikki haley warning of just that when she spoke before the foundation for the defense of democracy. she received an award. listen. >> when it comes to north korea, is it moving fast? no. we never thought it would. we knew this was going to be a slow, tough process. are they wishing or maybe changing their mind on denuclearization? it is possible. but we're not going to change our mind on the sanctions. >> eric: do you believe that kim jong-un will give up his nuclear weapons? >> i believe he wants to sta

i asked him, did you ever speak to kim jong-un. no. i said wouldn't it be maybe a good thing to give it a shot? obama couldn't get a meeting. clinton couldn't get a meeting. bush couldn't get a meeting. you know, with the family. bush couldn't get a meeting. nobody could get a meeting. this one's tougher than the father. i say that with respect but he's tougher than the father and tougher than the grandfather. they couldn't even get a meeting. i got a meeting. john: secretary of state mike pompeo announcing today he's heading to north korea next week, making it his fourth trip this year. joining me, former navy pilot and former intelligence operative, fox news correspondent lee gabriel. we talked about north korea for years. they have lied about everything. everything. without exception. how in the world can we trust this guy now? >> i think that we won't trust him. i think that we will look for verifiable steps that are taken by the north korean regime to show whether or not they are actually sincere in willingness to denuclearize. th

kim jong nam was targeted. well you ask officials and equally south korean officials claim that was a political act committed by north korea it is known that kim jong nam was the hop off kim jong un and. by his father and later on kim jong un criticized his younger brother and said he lacked leadership qualities so there wasn't a motive. for him just to kill kim jong nam and also you have to say you have those four north korean suspects who fled the country and the north korean side has shown no sort of cooperation or billing this to corporate in this highly suspicious case and the quick question is if you will ever find out the truth ok it looks like this case is turning into an international thriller sandra rocks so for us in kuala lumpur thanks very much molly's president abraham boubacar cato has been officially reelected for another five year term was declared the winner of the country's elections securing sixty seven percent of the vote the opposition led by small sissay have already said that they will reject the results of the presidential runoff the campaign was marred by accusations of fraud by violence and low turnout . kate and now faces the amends task of lifting thi

meet kim jong-un again.hepard? >> shepard: thanks, jennifer. we're getting a look at what it was like inside that jet as it crashed down in a field in mexico. less than a minute after take off. at least 65 americans were on that aero mexico jet. a passenger recorded this video outside the window, strong winds, heavy rain. they all say that. and a passenger described the chaos. >> it was pitch dark. we started smelling smoke. we couldn't believe. we were trying to break the window with our legs, kicking the window. it wouldn't. it wouldn't break. >> shepard: i said 110 people on board. actually 103. apologies. 103 on board, all survived. many of them did go to a hospital. coming up on a jam packed afternoon, the government apparently considering doing away with security screenings at a punch of smaller airports in america. it's not to make your life easier. but first, if you're headed to paris, don't plan to visit the eiffel tower. we'll show you why in two minutes. sometimes, bipolar i disorder can make you

>> great question, rob, kim jong un has a unique opportunity to reach out for economic development andr commander in korea general brook says there is no going back for north korea, the un security council is still locked arms, kim needs and wants sanction's relief but going forward is the only thing, president trump told us in may it would go as slowly or quickly as kim jong un wants, it's about the political will in kim jong un's heart as our -- it's really on his shoulders. we have to keep the pressure on military and the sanction's pressure. rob: yeah. jackie: john mccain's lasting impact on military as he passed this weekend, a lot of thoughts on him this morning, what would you say about his impact on the military? >> as a national security analysts john mccain was a navy man through and through, naval aviation, he could be really tough on the air force, he made sure it was always admiral and command in the pacific but under his time in the senate naval aviation flourished. they got the new super hornet fighter, pa surveillance plane and set aviation up for radical new f-35 fight

kim jong-un strategy hopefully reflects a rationality on his part. competency of the american military power and deliver overwhelming force on to north korea if necessary. president trump's unpredictability in his tweeting in terms of deployment made to south korea and the surrounding area and the build-up to the singapore summit. these things are things that north korea pays attention to. i think as we come towards the end of the year, it will issbe clear whether north korea will dismantle things that would be hard to rebuild. at that point president trump will make a determination about how to go guaforward. >> bill: why do you say the end of the year? >> because when you talk about north korea dismantling and frankly at least i think over 10 sites instead of just 1 or 2 missiles launch sites and talked about the factory. we know where that is and a lot of scientists. there is a measurable way to see if north korea is back away from that stuff. if that is not happening by the end of the year, i think there is an understanding that north korea is no

this is keeping with what kim jong-un said on now yeew year's.w pyongyang is producing those missiles at a plant in the suburb of their capital. some experts are telling "the new york times" this is not unusual, north korea would continue this type of activity because they haven't agreed to denuclearize yet and if they stop the production they would be giving away their leverage. >> secretary pompeo now traveling there. might this be a warning message from the trump administration to get serious? >> reporter: well, we can look at it in a couple of ways. maybe it could be a warning message if president trump has decided he is not open to another summit with kim jong-un even though on the north korean side they believe that was a very lyingly possibility. but it could also be fracnkly te u.s. coming in with a different approach. in early july it was a contentious meeting. the u.s. was asking for a big surrender of nuclear weapons right up front. the north korean rejected that. they went back and forth. it got very tense. the north koreans felt they

president trump said kim jong-un is not keeping his commitments, he's not denuclearizing, he's still ing forward to seeing him. so you have to wonder why that is, if kim jong-un is still violating international law, a can't imagine that president trump needed any more evidence than what was in the iaea report earlier in the week saying they weren't denuclearizing to decide to cancel this trip. >> if it's not an embarrassment to pompeo, might it ultimately be an embarrassment for trump because he's the one who famously k famously declared north korea was no longer a nuclear threat, saying that a few weeks ago, and of course he was giving much praise after the meeting with kim jong-un. is this now kind of an admission that, well, maybe it's going to take some time or maybe we're not seeing the progress that, you know, the president boasted? >> i think it's an embarrassment for trump but more than anything it's a blow to global security and global stability because kim jong-un is proceeding with his nuclear program. but he's being embraced around the world. he is not considered really to

who is also editor of the new yorker online, we understand there was a letter between trump and kim jong-un himself and president trump hasn't really called out kim jong-un on not moving faster on denuclearization and then you hear bolton protecting the reputation of the president saying he is working really hard, what is going on here with this messaging? >> i think bolton is defending the president, that's his job, but there's information coming out of the north korean summit that north korea is still building ballistic missiles and there's also intelligence reports that north korean officials have talked about destroying some of their nuclear weapons declaring that they have given them up and actually secretly retaining dozens of nuclear warheads. all this is a bad sign, this does not show great progress from the trump-kim summit. >> so the president has accused russia and china with interfering with north korean in bypassing sanctions, what do you make of that? >> that's another negative sign, and the broader picture here has the very tough sort of rhetoric and saber rattling by preside

pictures, videos that you see, you see kim jong-un with a notepad. r, the chinese leader, president xi, is actually dictating some of the things to kim jong-un. so, it's kind of a student-teacher relationship between the two of them, not that north korea doesn't do independent things, and sometimes they do anger the chinese, but the key thing here is that the chinese really are the only source of influence from the outside world with a little bit from russia. they basically control a lot of what north korea does have a foreign policy perspective, and that is something that we need to work much more carefully with the chinese, instead of engaging in direct trade wars with them. we have to be very careful in how we do that if we want them to help us with north korea. >> all righty. colonel cedric leighton, so grateful to have your perspective, always. thank you for being here. >> you bet, always a pleasure. >>> urban meyer is apologizing again. andy scholes, what's he saying? >> victor, meyer under fire for the way he handled wednesday's press conferenc

first from donald trump who continues to talk about his great relationship with kim jong—un. deed, even about his great relationship with kimjong—un. indeed, even sent about his great relationship with kim jong—un. indeed, even sent a letter to the north korean leader through the security forum which is being held at in singapore. there are those within his administration who are deeply concerned that they are not seeing action from north korea. yes, two months ago, they talked about denuclearisation. but actually, the intelligence agencies here believe that they are continuing to work on and build nuclear missiles and that is what is concerning them. beyond that, mike pompeo was having a message that was being sent not just pompeo was having a message that was being sent notjust north korea but also russia. that is because of exactly that issue that you mentioned. that is to do with sanctions. there are is some evidence which is being given to the un security council that pyongyang is managing to get around to evade sanctions. there are some indications, for example, that the

meeting with kim jong-un early on and negotiating some of these details is important. because if i were kim jong-un or vladimir putin or any world leader, i would not want to break my word with president trump. if that's the direction that north korea is taking, there will be severe penalties moving forward as the president has promised many times along the way. it's important that north korea get back on track, keep their word, keep their end of the bargain. the north korean people have a lot to gain for that occurring. and i hope that will be the case. it's important to remember what we were talking about one year ago from today, a year ago from today we were talking about north korea launching test missiles, if you recall, on july 4 of 2017, they test launched an intercontinental ballistic missles that we didn't know they had before. fast forward to what we're talking about today and the story is different, whether it's returning the bodies of american soldiers back to the united states, at the end of the day talking about the negotiations, we've seen a very big cont

another reason pompeo didn't have a good meeting with kim jong-un? he didn't meet with kim jong-un. had a very good excuse. turns out he was too busy visiting a potato farm to meet with u.s. secretary of state. but to be fair, a lot of people have trouble telling the difference between mike pompeo and a potato.

the real problem is the president, to be frank, misjudged kim jong un unless if we can get on a betterthe summit with kim jong un there is a new discovery that north korea had no plans to do you make a list of all the things to shake hands with the president and privately to see tim. as the president premature on that sunday? should he have relied on the resources and the fingertips and intellectual intelligence before agreeing to the meeting and is there any way the summit was the right move. i think it was the right move, but the president needed to do a much better job in nailing kim jong un down unless more explicit commitment, unambiguous commitments to denuclearization. kim jong said there must of us are and take all his troops out while he keeps his nuclear weapons for at least another 10 to 20 years. the deal was never fully understood on the north korean side and now we are paying the price in terms of this kind of setback in the talks. pompeo was humiliated when he went to pyongyang in july so it is better to postpone this visit. input a little more heat and the chinese. gett
