from seoul, robin brant sent this report.ned fire and fury in north korea, then last night president trump said us forces are locked and loaded. now there's more short—phrase diplomacy as the tension goes even higher. anything happens to guam, there's going to be big, big trouble in north korea. in just a matter of days, the country on the brink of becoming the world's newest nuclear power has threatened to land missiles just a few dozen miles from the us territory in the pacific. good morning, mr president. good morning, good morning, it's great to speak to you... in a call with the island's governor, mr trump had this to say about the regime in pyongyang. this is between you and i, but you don't talk like they talk, you can't do that, you can't do that with people like us. yeah. guam is home to us military bases, a fleet of bombers, and tens of thousands of people — americans who are now being told what to do in the event of a nuclear explosion. meanwhile, diplomacy is going on. in another presidential call, donald trump sp

with me is the founder of the race, sir robin knoxjohnston. me is the founder of the race, sir robinnoxjohnston. why do people put themselves through this?l robin knoxjohnston. why do people put themselves through this? a sense of adventure in people. they want to do something a bit different, a bit special with their lives. they want to do something they can turn around and say i've done that and be proud. you were the first man to sail solo nonstop around the world. when you see them going out, do you have a hankering to think i want to do it ain? hankering to think i want to do it again? yes but of course i did on my own. with a crew, to different problem. no, watching them sail away, i sort of feel, yes. i would quite like to be going. when they are going through the training, do you find people who put themselves forward and you think, actually, they are not going to make it? yes, we do. it usually turns up in the first week of training and normally they will discover it for themselves and we say, fair enough. occasionally, the odd person has said, you are not right for this. le

ashley: has a reason been given, robin?know this was done based on the analysis for insurance claims. but you mention the way our food is made, the way it is processed and all of that. do you have any clues at this point as to why allergies are skyrocketing? >> well, i think what's interesting in this report that was just released that 1% of the allergic reactions were attrittable to food additives. so, again, are we allergic to food? are we allergic to what has been done to it? what's been added to it, how it's being processed? there's so much more that needs to be done, which, again, is why we only completed the first chapter of this book, and i think what we need to do is to continue to bring the prices down of these pharmaceutical drugs that are being used to protect the lyes of americans around the country. and it's not just children anymore. we're seeing this epidemic reach across all age groups, all demographics, all ethnicities. ashley: i wanted to get back to mylan again if i can because i believe the amount was $4

harding, tokyo bureau chief at the financial times robin, thank you for joining us. we have unfortunately seen many missile tests from north korea what makes this different is that it flew across the northern tip of japan does that make the implications different for this one versus the previous missile test? >> domestically, in japan, yes, it makes a big difference, because the missile going over japan meant warnings, for people to evacuate and take cover some schools closed in hokaida this morning shows the level of alarm it causes people in japan. they have to react very quickly when there is a launch it isn't clean to the people whether the missile is about to hit them or not. it causes a qualitatively different level of alarm inside japan. >> robin, frame for us how significant this particular test was in terms of an elevation in terms of provocation by north korea, both the timing and the fact that it went over the top of a land mass that's a u.s. ally >> prime minister abe this an act that caused unprecedented danger to japan. it is very carefully and calibrat

. >> reporter: good morning, robin.ust in the last two hours there have been at least two explosions at the arkema chemical plant five miles up the road and is now on fire. one deputy was transported to a hospital after inhaling what they're calling nontoxic fumes. nine others drove themselves to the hospital to get checked out. now, this is something the plant's owners predicted would happen because the volatile koepkas they use to make plastics, foam cups and pipes have to be kept cool and that is the problem. electricity and two sources of backup power. i want to show you some video here. overnight the company released this clip that shows what happens to this type of chemical when it starts to get warm. basically it spontaneously combusts so that is why everyone here living here within a 1 1/2-mile radius has been evacuated. others have been told to shelter in place for now. later the company is expected to have a press conference and hopefully answer some big questions about the impact here. robin. >> there are som

we essentially allowed them, robin, to do it.ooking at a situation is spiraling out of our control. >> and that is being egged on by donald trump twitter-ocracy. trish, we imposed eight sanctions over north korea over last 11 years. not as though we have done nothing. trish: you know as well as i do, the sanctions don't work, china doesn't enforce them. we don't make china enforce them. go ahead. is that boyd? >> look at results of any of those sanctions done anything other than the fact we now know they have the capability. we have to look at, we can point fingers all we want. we can place blame, make excuses. trish: deal with something now. this is not a time for the democrats to be out there criticizing our president for sending a warning to north korea. they should be joining him also, sending that warning. robin, hugo, boyd, good to see you. i have to leave it there. sorry. china urging calm and calling for greater diplomacy between the u.s. and north korea. china is trying to play the big kid here? when china after all coul
