also you have to remember, now, you want to talk about north korea, north korea loves what to do is toet the new administration with series of provocations. this happened with the incoming administration with obama, in the first four months. we saw a series of provocations. we saw this in the second term of obama. we saw this when president trump came into the office. so completely fully prepared. so i'm just very dismayed that what we're going to see is the messier transition in american history given that president trump is still not conceding and making it difficult and calling this election illetimate. >> sue, great as always. i'll book mark the north korea piece. and victor thoughts on these issues here. >> a couple of thoughts. so i was -- i left the government before the transition, but my understanding of it was that the same as what sue said. you know, at least at the nsc. steve hadly was then security advisor and it was important to him that there be a seamless transition and that the outgoing team provide as much information as possible to the incoming team and i only know t

instead of just letting north korea dictate by being -- not paying attention to north korea. they're watching very closely. this situation is unusual. we have a very strang transition period where trump has still not conceded. we talked about all the difficulties stic they're facing. there are a number of factors that north korea is considering. so i don't think they will immediately turn into a major provocation. again, start with something smaller, a smaller provocation. but we i think, and the united states, the united states government, the incoming biden administration, can take steps to send the right kind of message and signal to north korea. in coordination with south korea. it's not a foregone conclusion. we know where they will be headed if we let six months go by without sending any kind of signal to north korea. mark: great stuff, sue. ok. i'm going to -- you know, after the show we're going to take bets but you saw i'm going to come back to you. i'm joking. really good stuff on your point -- i just thought it was excellent in terms of we know where this will go i

i think the most important thing would be, the people who are in charge of the north korea policy would have to work together and coordinate with our allies, with south korea, with japan, so we can prevent these kind of things that we've seen. and history has taught us a lot. we have learned a lot over the past three decades of dealing with north korea. so, you know. mark: it sounds like you're leaning heavily towards a prediction that the north koreans will do something in the coming weeks, months, to force themselves back on top of the agenda? dr. terry: i think what they're going to do is watch very closely for any kind of signal, any kind of indication that the biden administration is interested in an interim deal back to negotiating. , this is what i mean. it's not a foregone conclusion because i think there are things , that we can do to prevent that from happening, instead of just letting north korea dictate by not paying attention to north korea. they're watching very closely. this situation is unusual. we have a very strange transition period where trump has still not conceded.

if you think about it, north korea is smack dab in the middle between -- well, it's frankly right nexttry from where it started, china, and then right in between south korea. and we know that south korea was one of the countries that was hit most hard in the very beginning of the early part of this crisis. back in early this year. and so for north korea, this is frankly the biggest nightmare because it has one of the poorest health systems. it has a population that's already very malnourished, and it simply cannot tolerate any kind of -- any kind of illness that spreads throughout the country. >> north korea has been claiming that it doesn't have any cases of coronavirus in the country, which i guess in theory could be possible since it's such an isolated country. but the fact that you have north korean hackers trying to steal vaccine information, doesn't that show that there probably are cases inside this reclusive regime? >> it's certainly a paradox. we certainly cannot believe that north korea could not have a single case, but for a moment let's presume it doesn't and if there were

it's influence would soon be felt in north korea. the communists suddenly took us up on our standing offer to exchange sick and wounded prisoners. earth this was operation little switch. it indicated that a cease-fire may come soon. battle weary men listened forward that the shooting was to end. on july 27th, 1953, at the un base camp general mark clark signed the cease-fire agreement. a few miles away, the communists did the same. by august 5th, aberration big switch was underway. some 13,000 un soldiers returned from red prison camps. general william dean captured early in the war, returned with his thousands of comrades in arms. it was then that the world image of communism received a telling blow. for two thirds of the chinese prisoners refused to return to red china. and 35,000 north koreans decided they would rather live in south korea. an armistice however is only a cease-fire, not peace. and in this divided nation the need is for constant watchfulness. and ended preparedness still remains and me continue for years to come. th

what's being said in south korea and any reaction coming out of north korea at this time? >> well, rosemary when it comes to south korea, there was a fairly swift congratulations from president moon jae-in, also says he's going to see there's going to be no vacuum, no gaps between the two administrations when it comes to the peace process. he doesn't believe it will change radically. also when it comes to alliances. of course we have heard from president elect biden. he wrote an op-ed that he will be encouraging closer alliances, something he believes donald trump did something very different, the exact opposite in fact. but when it coms to north korea, we hasn't yet heard a response. it's not unusual. it does take pyongyang to react to whoever's won the u.s. election. but it's likely this is not the result that the leader kim jong-un wanted. had haez spent a lot of time and effort with president donald trump. they have had three historic meetings. there were countless letters which mr. trump called love letters. clearly it was a top-down approach. it was all about the rela

they will make pledges on north korea, but whereas we have a north korea strategy, china has a u.s. strategy. that strategy is to reuse issues in the region, in this case the nuclear and missile program of north korea, as a wedge to drive and driveom allies the united states out of northeast asia and indo pacific rockley -- broadly. --t xi jinping was if china succeeds, it is not only bad for us, but really bad for the countries in the region. i hear often times these days, don't force us to choose. we hear this from some of our allies and partners. don't force us to choose between beijing and washington. i think the response of the new biden audit -- administration ought to be, we are not asking you to do that. we are on the side of your sovereignty. reopening of this the indo pacific is, about and i hope the biden administration will see this as a key element of continuity as they put together foreign policy. vivian: you mentioned nuclear. , they havet the u.n. been lighting fires under countries around the world to take notice that nuclear armed countries are going toward more te

general assembly s adoed apt resolution expressing international concern over north korea's human rights abuses. it urges the north to resolve e decades old issue of the abduction of foreign nationals. the resolution submitted by japan, the united states and others won overwhelming support in a vote at the general assembly on wednesday. it's the 16th consecutive year the resolution has been adopted. the resolution condemns in the strongest termshat it calls the systematic widespread and gross violations of human rights by north korea. it also urges pyongyang to provide family memrsbe with accurate information on abducted foreners a requests they are promptly repatriated. prior to the vote, a japanese envoy called for support from the international community to resolve the abductions issue. he noted the deaths this year of the parents of two japanese abductees. the father of one and the mother of another. >> it is heartbreaking to imagine the pain of the family members who passed away after working so hard for over 40 years to rescue their dearest children in vein. there's no time to lose

biden has been very critical of north korea throughout this whole campaign.fact, in the last presidential debate, he called kim jong un a thug, and north korea has had choice words for vice president biden as well, calling him a fool of low iq among other insults. when it comes to south korea, we have a president moon jae-in who's pro engagement with north korea. potentially he would maybe prefer president trump to be reelected so he could have that chance of reengagement with north korea, but we did have an op-ed written by the former vice president biden here in south korean media pointing out that he will reengage with allies, something he claims president trump has not done, and briefly on china, beijing will be watching this closely. president trump has started a trade war with china, affected millions, he says that china is the biggest security threat to the united states but biden disagrees, he says that is russia. laura. >> potentially very different reactions, depending on what happens, paula hancocks, thank you so much. appreciate it. >>> let's get

continued use of sanctions but you would also have hopefully some multilateral framework working with north korea and you wouldn't be canceling you know you would be canceling exercises between the u.s. and south korea which are very much needed to get nothing in return for that so i think there'd be a much more effective approach towards north korea knives it's been a problem it's a project. but i think you could have a more effective approach than we've seen the past few years a state i can appreciate about thanks a lot steve i can speaking to us from singapore throughout his presidency donald trump has consistently singled out the european union as a threat to u.s. interests and one in stands on the continent as please that support since it's a good many you lose the bubble has more why the us election matters more than ever for europe but your biggest competitor the biggest photo globally right now oh i think we have a lot of phones i think the european union is a slow what they do to us in trade the relationship between the u.s. and europe has never been straightforward but for decades they'

he's certainly not going to turn a blind eye when north korea fires ballistic missiles into the sea of japan. he's not going to talk about withdrawing u.s. troops from korea or japan the way that president trump wanted to. but neither is he going to make reckless threats of nuclear fire and fury either. my guess is that there will be three elements to a biden approach, basically. defense, deterrence, but also diplomacy. and by diplomacy i mean first, close diplomatic coordination th tokyo, with seoul. he made tt very clear in his telephone conversation yesterday with prime minister suga. i think he'll make an effort with beijing, as well. although that's not going to be easy. whether there can be diplomacy with north korea, you know, that really depends on kim jong-un. biden indicated he's willing to negotiate, but he's a very experienced leader. biden has been around, and he's not going to get manipulated or fooled the way that his predecessor was in singapore. >> lots to consider here, mr. russell. thank you for being with us. >> my pleasure. >> we'll be keeping an eye on these devel
