the north korean celebrated last october the seventh anniversary of the party's founding. at was the anniversary of the northern korean communist party. the korean workers party was founded in august of 1946, when the communist party merged with another progressive party called the new people's party. this was done at the suggestion of joseph stalin. in a meeting that kim il-sung had with him in moscow. he returned in the merger took place at the first congress. in august, 1946. the second congress took place less than two years later in march of 1948. pre-war the last -- warean were congress congress to focus on putting the party in order, passing new bylaws. patterns begin to emerge from the third congress that happened after the war in 1946. topics discussed include economic development, domestic politics, international relations, and inter-korean relations. at the last two congresses in 1970 and 1980, ideology played a major role. and of course there have been displays, significant displays of loyalty to the kim family and the unitary leadership system. now, conditions

this last year, this year, the north koreans announced in geneva that they weren't going to contest the brutality to which they were being subjected for their youawful human rights record and when the issue of north korea was taken up in march, the north koreans were not present in the chamber. they were present in the building because we saw them. but they didn't bother to come into the chamber because they didn't want to have to go through the embarrassment of being the only one to defend north korea's human rights record. it was interesting, even the countries that spoke out against the resolutions that were being adopted, countries like belarus, zimbabwe, countries with sterling records on human rights didn't defend north korea. they said we don't think an individual country should be singled out. so the north koreans after finding, "a," they didn't have a lot of support, said we're not going to contest. we're going to ignore it because we don't think it's worth noting. and, in fact, this year for the first time in several years when the resolution was taken up in geneva, it was ado

the founding of the party, this is something that's up for debate, the north koreans celebrated last october, the 70th and veniversary, the found of the northern korean communist party, the korean workers party was founded in 1946 when the korean -- when the communist party merged with another progressive party called the new people's party. this was done at the suggestion of joseph stalin. in a meeting in july of 1946 in moscow. kim returned to pyongyang and the merger took place at the first congress in august '46. the second congress took place less than two years laettnt lat march of 2008. this focused on putting the party in order, passed new bylaws. patterns began to emerge in congresses from the third congress which happened after the war in 1956. topics discussed included from this congress and moving forward included international relations and inter-korean relations. at the last two in 1970 and 1980 ideology played a major role and, of course, there have been significant displays of loyalty to the kim family. conditions are not ideal. the tone in october when the -- this is

described why nuclear weapons and human rights violations are both necessary for the survival of the north korean regime. so my question, sir, or all of you, is it possible to the international community can put pressures on north korea where they will come to see that their continued violations are of greater threat to their survival than anything else? >> good question. if i could ask the panel to in one minute each give an answer and wrap up. beginning with bob king. bob. mr. king: with regard to the question on individuals involved sanctions being -- individuals being involved in abductions and sanctions, we are looking at how we might identify individuals in ways that meet our legislative requirements to apply sanctions against individuals and there are a whole range of issues that we're looking at and people involved in abductions would be one we are looking at. yes, we are looking at it. with regard to the question of the international community pressing the dprk, i think we have done a fairly good job of trying to pri the international community together and press the north koreans and i

the north korean foreign minister for the first time in 14 years made an appearance in new york and spoke at the general assembly session in an effort to defend the north that that continued during 2015 and the north koreans fought back, they attempted to -- on the resolutions that were being adopted in the general assembly and in the human rights council to call for votes, they had allies who -- the country's you would expect voted against the the the numbers didn't change that much from what it was looking like before. the north koreans and human rights council got maybe eight votes in support of them, those who voted against them were five times that number, so, i mean, it -- the north koreans have tried it. this last year, or this year, the north koreans announced in geneva that they weren't going to contest the brutality to which they were being subjected the to their awful human rights effort. and and when the issue of north korea was taken up in march, the north koreans were not present in the chamber. they were present in the building because we saw them. but they didn't bother to

there's also the sense that china is less than respectful of north korean sovereignty and the north koreans pick up remnants of this middle kingdom mentality where they feel that china is trying to reassert its tradition about hedge money over korea. , that of course, leads to the meddling and it doesn't surprise me when relation sour or -- and i -- i'm shocked more by the ct that people seem really perplexed by the souring of relation between north korea and china. even as recently as the mid 2,000's, china's add to north korea was not and was up and down. it hasn't been consistent. there have been periods of souring of rust and relations. this is -- again, something else to keep in the back of your mind as you're reading reports in the newspaper about the relationship of china and north korea. over the past second decade, i would say -- at one point i actually went through and tallied up. of the came up with out past 70 years, this is when relations were pretty good. vs. just ok vs. really bad. in fact, ed say that the majority of the years, the elationship was not so good. the north kore

human rights and and omission of inquiry effort gone into publicizing and korean ing the north record in this regard. the japanese government has very important role in withprocess as co-authored he european union of resolutions with geneva and the general assembly to call korean n to the north efforts. we appreciate the role japan has this regard. point that ambassador li made about the value and the lateral cooh try operation between united states and japan is another point i'd because the size three of us these they countries are all the countries that are in dealing with the problems and the rovocations and the difficult at thes that north korea has created share the same values same ideals in terms of our kphaoeument to rule of huh value and he importance of hugh has an rights. as the three of us have worked co-op operated closely in terms of dealing with these issues, i think we the effort that we've made in terms of pushing forward on these extremely important issues. the united states is committed continuing to work with japan, with south korea in and ng with the issues effort

one little sidenote is the are a lot of north korean stories in part because it is so strange. it just stands in juxtaposition to all kinds of things but my research assistant over the course of the book developed a fascination with north korea. the last time i saw him, he said i'm going to north korea. i just got to get there. and i thought, this may or may not be a good idea. he did kind of disappear for long stretch, and the next time i heard from him i got this and addressed envelope in my mailbox, and inside was a 5000 north korean yuan note along with the story of how he smuggled it out, and the kim jong-un postage stamp which not everybody gets. but you did this get the country with this 5000 yuan note okay. iused back in the craddick lasti checked. we are back to the north korean yuan which is even more curious. in response to 2000 a financial crisis, the federal reserve was aggressively injecting liquidity into the financial system. the concept of liquidity will be explored in greater depth of the book but for now the basic point is the federal reserve was doing everyth

what was the reason the north korean government gave? eth: that i was trying to overthrow the government. particularly bringing people to north korea to pray and worship. katty: when you were arrested and sentenced a hard labor it was not your first time in north korea. you had been 18 times already. what were you doing? foreth: i organized tours westerners to be able to go to north korea, explore the land, meet north koreans. as part of it, they can go and worship and pray for the north korean people. katty: when you are arrested, you were arrested because you had taken a computer into the country which had photographs of starving north korean children and prayers. why did you take that computer? you must have known it was dangerous. kenneth: it was not a computer, it was a portable hard drive. i was supposed to leave that in china before across the border into north korea. and morning, i was rushing left my computer at the hotel. i forgot to take out my hard drive. it contained photos from western media. that got me in trouble. katty: i

the international community is aiming to improve the north korean human rights situation. we continue to address the oppression. on north korea has defeated a series of action, since the nuclear testing in january. they have not listened to the voice of the international community. acceptnecessary to pressure on north korea and to have north korea clearly recognize that propagated action is deserved in paying a heavy price. there is no point in conducting this if they do not resolve the abduction issues. otherwise, the objection issue cannot be resolved. he also states it will be impossible for north korea to envision their future without the revolution of the abduction issue. but what does the comment implied? the abduction issue is a serious of concern between japan and north korea. it is as important as the nuclear and missile issues. and as i explained about the pyongyang issue, the resolution is as important as the nuclear issue for japan. there can be no normalization. the japanese government will not provide humanitarian assistance or relieve sanctions without north

in addition to stationing troops on the korean peninsula and being that front line, the speed bump as you pointed out, if north korea were to invade. 1960's,rom the late that the south korean economy caught up and been surpassed that of north korea. host: let's go to charles entries port, louisiana. good morning. taking myank you for call. i was with the marine corps in 1950's. to seoul,l the way korea. there, we had been returned down and would go aboard the ship and make the return back to japan, but we were going to north korea. we went to the reservoir and i got frostbitten while i was up there, and that is the reason i got flown out with a medical discharge. here is my situation. we would have had korea north and south without the chinese interference if we had stopped at the 30th parallel as we had intended. was akorea was very, -- very, very desolate place. it would take them years to achieve much. but i think the chinese were on their side. if it had not been for harry truman, we would have no idea what would have happened. i just wanted to make a comment. you to you and those who have served. james pe

and nhk world's kim chan ju has the story of a man doing just that. >> reporter: north korean defectors are learning how to sound like south koreans. they speak the same language, but their accents and dialects differ. their goal is to fit in and to not be recognized as defectors. while they were able to flee north korea, life in the south is not exactly easy. this maname t south kea ten years ag he works in sales and notices he is at a disadvantage. >> translator: when clients hear me speak, their attitudes change immediately. i cannot succeed. >> reporter: he escaped the country at the age of 12 with his brother. they had no idea where their parents had gone and were totally alone. when he arrived, he could hardly read and write and ended up lagging behind in school. that gave other students an excuse to bully him. >> translator: other students mocked me for studying with younger classmates. it hurt me and made me very angry. >> reporter: several years after graduating park has found a way to try to overcome his changes. every weekend this park is bustling with customers. the vendors

dangers involved in a meeting with the north korean leader.o other sitting american president ever has, a direct face-to-face meeting with the leader of north korea. on the question of talking to kim jong-un, trump tells reuters. >> i would speak to him. i have no problem with speaking to him. >> reporter: bill richardson, former ambassador to the u.n. and veteran negotiator with the north koreans says trump is being naive. >> you can't just shoot and say like donald trump let's meet, let's talk. that's not going to work. that's not diplomacy, that's reality tv. >> reporter: experts say a trump face to face with kim would send the wrong message, that it would look like reward for kim's aggressive, violent behavior. human rights advocates would be outraged, given his prison gu logs and execution of several. called him a maniac, says he needs to be taken seriously. >> he wiped out the uncle, this one and that, he doesn't play games and we can't play games with him. >> reporter: analysts say if a president met with kim jong-un, he would get playe

effort to defend the north koreans. that continued during 2015 and the north koreans fought back. they attempted on the resolutions that were being adopted in the general assembly and human rights council to call for votes. they had allies -- the countries you would expect, who voted against the resolution. the numbers didn't change that much. the north koreans and the human rights council got maybe eight votes in support of them. those who voted against them were five times that number. so i mean -- the north koreans have tried it. this last year, this year, the north koreans announced in geneva that they weren't going to contest the brutality to which they were being subjected for their awful human rights record and when the issue of north korea was taken up in march, the north koreans were not present in the chamber. they were present in the building, because we saw them. but they didn't bother to come into the chamber because they didn't want to have go through the embarrassment about being able to defend north korea's human rights issues. the countries that spoke out against

now, i may have dozed off in the last 25 years, but it's pretty rare to see a north korean leader in north korea rare such a western outfit. that may be the real signal he's looking to shop in the great capitals of europe and the united states. >> well, you've dealt with the north koreans as the former assistant secretary of state for weapons and this sort of thing, and they called you a thirsty bloodsucker, a very ugly fellow, but now he's got a shirt and tie like us. is this a symbol, do you think, that they are trying to tone down that rhetoric and be westernized? >> well, he hasn't apologized to me yet so i'll take it with a grain of salt, but i think there is significance to this linkage. economic policy and the nuclear policy. i think kim would like to find the kind of deal that iran got, not because they have the slightest intention of giving up their nuclear weapons program any more than iran does, but north korea would certainly like to see some kind of relief from the economic sanctions that we've imposed on them for years and that have been ramped up each time they test a n

two north korean soldiers were severely injured by land mines allegedly planted by the north.recently the north has launched missiles and conducted nuclear tests. this has all but drowned out the call for unification. south korea's former unification minister agreed to give nhk his first tv interview since leaving his post. he said the preparation program was stalled as the government contradict where the north is heading. >> translator: the results may have been different if we could take enough time, but the government of kim jong-un was very provocative in its early days. it was tough to predict what action the north would take. >> reporter: public interest in unification is a low point with young people in particular reacting sharply to the provocatio provocations. this young man hopes to play a leading role in the future unified nation but says he now has little chance to discuss north korea with his southern friends. >> translator: my friends are not interested in unification at all. they avoid the issue and think talking about it would be boring. to be frank, i don't kn

president has ever met with the north korean leader.oining me now, "washington post" opinion writer jennifer ruben, howard fineman. jennifer, you and i both know the reaction early on in the obama administration that he dare say that some within his office, not even talking directly with iran himself or any of the -- that there could be talks of a nuclear deal and now we have the presumptive nominee not only saying that he would meet face-to-face with kim jong-un. >> it only ranks as about the tenth dumbest thing he's said on foreign policy because there have been so many others, including giving japan nuclear weapons and perhaps setting off a nuclear weapon in europe. so it's getting harder to get worked up about these things. it is a stupid thing to say, however. obviously that would be a huge publicity coup for the north korean dictator. >> do you think he doesn't know that that's not how it works? >> your guess is as good as mine. i think that's right. i think he does not understand how it works. this is not a man who has spent any

there is also the sense that china is less than respectful of north korean 17 -- north korean sovereignty. north koreans pick up on this middle finger mentality. they feel that china's trying to koreart its hegemony over . of course, it leads to meddling. so it doesn't surprise me when relations sour. thei'm shocked more by people same -- by the fact that people seem perplexed by the souring of relations between china.orea and as recently as the mid-2000, china's aid to north korea was was up and down. it hasn't been consistent. there have been periods of andnse, you know, mistrust souring of relations. this is something to -- again, something else to keep in the back of your mind as you are reading reports in the newspaper about the relationship with china and north korea. decades,e past seven their relationship has -- i would say, you know, at one point i went through and tallied up. out of the past 70 years, this is when relations were pretty okd versus, you know, just versus really bad. and it was, in fact -- i would say that the majority of the years -- unfortunately, i don't remembe

as you kick things down the can, they north koreans gain more capability.nteresting that you have not heard a word of dissent from the intelligence community -- they now have the capacity to put that weapon on a short range missile which could hit troops in south korea or japan and of course the japanese islands. you have heard that downplayed to some degree. they don't want to panic their populations, understandably. john: if your story is correct, it would seem north korean proliferation would be right at the top of the foreign-policy agenda as they get ready to run for president. talk about hillary clinton and donald trump. do they have stances on nonproliferation? do they talk about this particular threat? david: mr. trump in his interview a month and a half ago talks about pulling back from japan and pulling troops back if those countries to. make a greater contribution to their own defense. japan probably pays more than anybody for the presence of americans, about $2 billion year. if japan and south korea and that going nuclear, which he said he had n

the latest example, his comments to reuters that he would speak with north korean leader kim jong-un. those remarks set the stage for a big foreign policy meeting trump will have later today with former secretary of state henry kissinger. the other big headline from the presumptive gop nominee is he's also filed his personal financial disclosure form with the federal election commission. trump says he reported an income of nearly $560 million and a net worth of $10 billion. the clinton campaign responded that trump's pfd is no bfd and that he should release his tax returns. something he says he will do after he is no longer under an audit. boris and christine? >> thanks, jim. >> jo >> joining us now to break down all the results, eugene scott in our washington bureau. good to see you again. good morning. let's start with last night's results. hillary clinton squeaking by in kentucky. there it is right there. about 2,000 votes over bernie sanders. in oregon, sanders dominating, beating hillary clinton by more than 40,000 votes there. clinton sending out a tweet last night. she didn't a

that north korea has the ability to strike as far as 13,000 kilometers, which would mean that the north koreanscould strike across targets across the united states. at the moment, north korea has the nuclear capability to hit south korea and japan. and it's just a matter of time before the north koreans are able to hit the united states as well with a nuclear warhead. >> and i ask you, what's the best way for foreign leaders to deal with kim jong un, to stop him getting that nuclear proliferation that you just referenced? what is it, do you talk to him, do you deal with him in diplomacy? diplomatic ways? demands? more sanctions? are do you ignore him but closely monitor his moves? >> well, i think that a thug and a barbaric dictator like kim jong un understands only one message and that is strength and reso. i think that what we have seen over the past few years has been a rather weak approach taken by the obama administration. we need a far tougher approach. we need to see the deployment of the missile defense system to south korea. we need to see the ramping up of u.s. and international u.n.

we reported a story i did a few weeks ago, that the north koreans have, according to american and southorean televisions, have finally mastered the technology of putting a nuclear weapon on a short and in a radio range missile. they have not tested this yet, but the intelligence agencies believe they know how to do this. they do not yet know how to put it on a long-range missile that could reach the united states. but if it is can reach american forces in south korea, american forces in japan, if it can reach about any city in japan and south korea, that seems to raise the stakes considerably, at a time when we're worried about the stability of kim jong-i un. and if there has been a single area in which president obama has made no progress, and is leaving the situation worse than he founded in asia, it is on the north korean side. while the u.s. was able to negotiate with the iranians, it has never gotten a conversation going with the north koreans. i'm not sure there is any chance that will happen between now and that time. >> gui for coming to see us. sleep. we look forward to seeing

that hack was attributed ultimately to the north koreans by the u.s. government. but it's never been clear that the north koreans actually did the sony hack themselves. it's always been a possibility out there that they outsourced that hack to a third party enterprise, some kind of criminal enterprise, somewhere necessarily the world. what we may be seeing here, it's at least possible, is that that third party enterprise is out there doing other stuff as well. so it's very, very murky. and investigators are trying to figure out now exactly who this is. and it's a classic case of a whodunit. >> i assume that none of the money has been recovered but what else have researchers been able to discover here? >> in addition to the fact that there's this interesting signature, they found that there were several different entities inside the bank of bangladesh's server. so this is a terrifying prospect for global finance. because it's not just the group that actually stole the money that was in there. investigators have found there were several other groups that were in the

we reported a story i did a few weeks ago that the north koreans have, according to american and southean intelligence, have finally mastered the technology of putting a nuclear weapon on a short and intermediate range missile. they have not tested this yet, but the intelligence agencies believe they know how to do this. they do not yet, they believe, know how to put it on a long-range whistle that could reach the united states. but if it can reach american forces in south korea, american forces in japan, if it can reach about any city in japan and south korea, that seems to raise the stakes considerably, at a time when we're worried about the stability of kim jong-un. and i would say that if there has been a single area in which president obama has made no progress and is probably leaving the situation worse than he asia, it is on the north korean side. while the u.s. was able to negotiate with the iranians, it has never gotten a conversation going with the north koreans. i'm not sure there is any chance that will happen between now and that time. charlie: thank you for stepping off a
