approximately 300 kilometers of the peninsula. a number of japanese fishing vessels were out in the sea at the time of the launch. this shows how dangerous and irresponsible this act by north korea was. if it hadn't been such a lofty launch, the missile would've flown for more than 5,500 kilometers, and could have reached many other member states' soil. these provocations by north korea trample upon international efforts towards a peaceful resolution of nuclear and missile issues and present enormous global threats. as north korea claims they are capable of hitting any part of the world, the threats have literally become global. this most recent provocation made it even more evident that conditions are not right for dialogue with north korea at this moment. there is no other choice left for us now but to work together to increase pressure against north korea. thorough and faithful implementation of the relevant united nations security council resolutions is critically important. every member state must work together to pressure no

mister president, there's no solution on the peninsula. it is an urgent need for redouble efforts to build confidence, to avoid further escalation and take steps to prepare for peaceful diplomatic and comprehensive solutions to the situation on the peninsula and the region. almost contribute to this end and we welcome all initiatives to consider a peaceful comprehensive solution to dialogue. we have risen in recent months and potential mistakes, misunderstanding and miscalculation is high. a regional purity mechanism should be the immediate long-term goal.we remain committed to the nuclear organization of the peninsula and reiterate our solidarity with the neighboring countries and their peoples who are living under the constant shadow of the dprk's behavior. we again call on the dprk to reengage in meaningful dialogue with the international community . in the meantime sweden will stand with councilmembers in condemning any action of international peace and security and i thank you. >> we thank the representative of sweden, and give the fl

and so the peninsula campaign that brings the northern soldiers to the eastern peninsula of virginia to try to capture richmond, like i said it is probably the unhealthiest spot in the confederacy to try to attack. maybe not, maybe the mississippi delta can challenge that or maybe in louisiana, but the peninsula of eastern virginia is not a very healthy place, especially when it rains. that is what happened to mcclellan and his army in 62. but he is able to march his way toward richmond with all these handicaps, get to the outskirts of the city by late may of 1862. and then something happens to completely sort of, not change the fortunes of the confederacy necessarily, but give the confederacy in fighting chance to hold out against mcclellan. it is something that happens in the shenandoah valley and becomes known as stonewall jackson's shenandoah valley campaign. we will put it in context. why does the shenandoah valley campaign affect what is happening at richmond? we will backtrack. mcclellan had 110,000 men in his army. he actually intended to have more. he intended to have about

real threat north korea poses are on the peninsula and in the region.s is where we have major u.s. forces already deployed, a very substantial population of american citizens in south korea every day, so even though north korea sees it as part of its needterm aspirations, the to determine possible threats has not changed significantly. it is more an accomplishment for north korea as they want to claim they can punch above their weight. tracking a from missile launched, how does the u.s. get intelligence on what north korea is doing and how close they may be to developing a nuclear tipped warhead? in fact one of the toughest things to analyze because unless and until north korea actually would be prepared , if it would be prepared, to demonstrate that kind of cap capability, that is launch a missile with a warhead on top, something that has not been done in 37 years, but what north korea is trying to do instead and what the intelligence community analyzes, as you look at information they publicize, photographs and the like, simulations of tests on the gr

korea is a party directly concerned with korean peninsula issues. as a direct stakeholder and also to never repeat the tragedy of another devastating war, korea will assume a leading role more so than before. if korea improves its relations with north korea in close corroboration with the u.s., the community of nations, including the u.s., will also be able to build better relations with the north in due course. ladies and gentlemen, yesterday i had an in depth dialogue with president trump on this vision that i have. we concurred to work more proactively to preserve and build peace. let me make myself clear here today. president trump and i do not pursue hostile policies against north korea. we have no intention to attack north korea. we have no wish to see its regime replaced or collapsed. and we have no plans to artificially accelerate reunification on the korean peninsula. yet, let us also make it clear to north korea, without a doubt north korea must understand that denuclearization is the only way to guarantee its security and economic develop

and also sort of puts the peninsula into a cycle of escalation.nd that's the concern the chinese and the russians are both expressing. and they're calling for dialogue and diplomacy to try to bring an end to this escalating crisis. >> so in terms of what was on the long-term agenda for this meeting, they're talking about deepening ties, right? that's based on trade deals. >> yeah, absolutely. i mean, there has been a long running process, which has been accelerating since 2014 really when the west imposed sanctions on russia for its actions in crimea and eastern ukraine. a long running process of closening relations between russia and china. they have signed hundreds of billions of dollars worth of trade deals, particularly on the energy sector. on this occasion they're going to be signing $10 billion worth of trade deals as well. this is an increasingly close commercial relationship. it's also increasingly close military and diplomatic issue as well. obviously they speak with one voice on particular issues, particularly the korean peninsula issue

when we see american bombers flying over the korean peninsula, how much of the korean peninsula, howessage is that sense to pyongyang but also to beijing saying if you will not do much about this, we might? well, that is certainly one perception that is received by the audience but i think the bigger and stronger message is one of deterrence, it is not so we're practising because they're going to make runs of bomb droppings, that is not what they are for, they are to show the strength and unity of the alliance which is very important to south korea's defence and also japan and all of us allies in the region. but when you see donald trump sending out tweets which has seen the frustrated with beijing, how strong is the alliance? no, i do not think the two have are related. it has taken six months for president tromso come to the understanding that china is not going to act on behalf of the united states. that is quicker than previous presidents who her last 16 years have relied on outsourcing the chinese role to solve the north korean problem. president trump i think his tweets are con

that we are generally focused on the denuclearization of the korean peninsula. we have done our part in south korea. there are no nuclear weapons. and it's now up to north korea to come to the table, hopefully encouraged by the sanctions and also encouraged by other incentives. >> my question goes to what is the conversation between the trump administration and the chinese government. what are you saying to the chinese government about the intention of the united states to tighten a vise-like grip sanctions on those companies that are cooperating with the north korean government, including the ten companies that we include in this legislation towards the goal of moving to direct negotiations with the north koreans having the chinese working with us. so what is that conversation? that's what we're trying to elicit. because obviously, when there is a 37% increase in trade with north korea and china and a $10 billion a year hit on the south korean government -- economy, as they cooperate with the united states in the deployment of the t.h.a.a.d., right now they're

as we head over to mike you have an update for the peninsula. >> i do. the tarp or the blanket southbound at milbrae. let's say we're going to track that but it doesn't sound like it's preventing an issue. we got confirmation chp says the fast lane is blocked now by the crash and there may be injuries related to this crash north 280. now traffic is still light on the peninsula. you don't see any slowing there. it's pretty light all around the bay so there's a nice, easy drive. travel times, the toll plaza where the cash pairs have to pause to pay, sam. >>> mike, thank you very much. let's go right now, no pause, finally full speed ahead in washington, d.c. we think. a busy day from capitol hill. a live look as republicans are preparing to take the next step to get rid of the affordable care act or obamacare. today the senate is expected to decide whether or not to finally start debate over health care. we learned senator john mccain will be on hand to cast his crucial vote. president trump tweeting so great that john mccain is coming back to vote. brave

forces do all the time here in the korean peninsula, especially recently.ow just -- this is the sixth time one of those overflights have happened ever since april, and this just goes to show the frequency of these sorts of overflights goes to show how tense things have come here on the korean peninsula. this latest one was a reaction to the july 4th intercontinental ballistic missile test. pyongyang said it launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, and in fact u.s. officials agree. many experts say that this bomb, the one that they launched on tuesday, could have the capability of reaching u.s. soil in alaska. but as you mentioned, dara, there were three nations that participated in this exercise, the u.s., japan and south korea. now, the u.s. air force says these lancer b-1-b bombers took off from guam and came close to the demilitarized zone. we haven't heard a reaction from north korea but we are expecting to hear one very soon. >> that will do it for me. thanks for watching. hugh huewitt takes over at the top of the hour. afi sure had a lot on my

for instance, you could fly a bomber over the peninsula. president obama did that a couple of times. president trump just did that recently as well. you could put more naval assets in and around the peninsula if you wanted to. you could certainly change the force posture on the ground. i also think they are going to be looking at force posture in the region. we are all folk used on the peninsula as we should, but we need to remember that with this capability, he can now endanger more people in the region. so, i think one of the things the pentagon is looking at today is what do we need to do in terms of regional posture to make sure we're read i. the other thing i'd say, sorry to keep talking more, but the thaad deployment is really important. and i think we have -- we've added a lot of missile defense capabilities in that part of the asia-pacific. i think they'll be looking at that as well. >> so china and russia come to this joint statement, and they say they don't want to see that thaad missile defense system there. >> right. >> they don
