central europe and south east asia are on track to be free of these weapons later this year.hat means that terrorists and criminal gains a looking around for ingredients for a nuclear in thewill find places world where it is now off-limits. this summit is a place to keep up our efforts to prevent the world's most deadly networks from obtaining these deadly weapons. this also presents another opportunity in making sure that we remain focused in our fight against isil. high number of our countries have been targeted by isil -- a number of our countries have been targeted by isil. and iraq, isil continues to lose ground. we continue to take out their leaders and those who are planning terrorist attacks against our countries. their morale is suffering and isil is squeezed in syria and iraq, but it is lashing out elsewhere, as we have seen most recently and tragically from turkey to brussels. we have been trying to disrupt terrorist attacks, but it requires even more cooperation and it sure is more information and intelligence. that is why i have invited all of the nations represe

it is considered a kidnapping capital of south-east asia >>> south korea has confirmed that a north korean army colonel deeffected last year days, the prime minister defected last year. south korea has granted him asylum. it follows an announcement that 13 workers at a restaurant run by the north in the undisclosed third country had defected as a group. >> translation: this morning's report is true. that is all i can say. i cannot give details included detailed personal information. from the perspective of our government, we believe it is an example of showing the unusual movement of the powerful class >>> right to our correspondent. it seems almost as if we've got a trend going on. why do we think that the south korean authorities have decided to acknowledge this defection of the senior military man now when it happened a year ago. >> reporter: this is a very significant development. it is very rare that you get such a high-ranking official defecting like this. i'm sure the south koreans are making as much of it as they can. they will only say that he was a colonel, that he had direct con

in 1980 we managed to resettle over 200,000 refugees from south-east asia after the war in vietnam.o we have a long history of providing refugee resettlement in this country even though our country is part of the refugee history >>> a lot of people who helped the united states on the ground in south-east asia did eventually come here, but if we were to compare the number of people who have been able to come legally from afghanistan and iraq, where united states forces were fighting for years, is that a large number? >> i'm not sure whether it's a large number, but i think the good thing is that at least you any iraqi working with the u.s. government is going through a process to come here. i think we managed to bring in quite a large number of iraqis or afghanis. we came up with a separate visa for them >>> there have been complaints that the process is very slow. it's dangerous when they're back in afghanistan and considered collaborators >> i agree with you. we have been asking the administration to expedite the process. some of these folks are working for the u.s. government. so

to the world health organisation in 2013 there were three million cases across the americas, south-east asiand the western pacific. the u.s. centers for disease control estimates there are 5200 million new cases of dengue fever each year. >> dengue is coffeed of four different viruses and what happens is they get infected with the dengue virus and then they can - it's call bone break fever. your muscles tense so much that it feels as though your bones are breaking >>> vaccines for dengue are still in development, but currently the only way to control the disease is to control what scientists call the vector, in this case the insect spreading the disease. they do that by biting an infected person, acquiring the disease from blood and then else. >> as scientists we've been losing a fighting battle gents mosquito. they kill a person every 12 seconds. all of the control methods throughout mankind that we've tried to get rid of mosquito, this is the best. the types of results we're getting, 90% of suppression is way and above what is achieved by conventional control >>> what he is talking about i

to take note here and that is that this area of the group has been the kidnapping capital of south east asia. kidnap for ransom groups strive here. it is an industry where local politicians are also believed to be involved. in fact, during election season kid namg goes up because it is believed to have been funding election campaigns. this is the situation that has a pattern over the last few years already >>> thank you so much >>> foreign ministers from the group of seven nations are meeting in japan. they have all sent their top diplomats to discuss a host of issues, including terrorism as well as ukraine and north korea. they're expected to meet the memorial to pay tribute to those who died 70 years ago in the bombing >> reporter: this city was chosen because of what happened here more than 70 years ago. on monday the u.s. secretary of state john kerry will become the highest ranking u.s. official to come here and lay a wreath here. it is a memorial to all those who lost their lives when the military dropped an atomic bomb on this city. he will be joined by the six other g7 foreign minist

it is in areas where it is considered to be the kidnapping area of south-east asia. more than 20 soldiers are believed to have died. the military says it has bombed an area. there is not enough information from the philippine government. it is still unknown how many civilians are expected in this operation and how it remains to be seen how it will affect the coming elections within the next three weeks >>> time for your sport. >> reporter: thanks. we start with football and a big victory for leicester on sunday to remain on course to win the english premier league. they need to win three of their final five games to make sure of their title. they are seven points clear at the top of the table. it's a good qualification for the champion's league for the first time >> i'm happy because we got three points in a difficult match. we knew to play in this moment against sunderland. it was very difficult because in the last five matches they made a very fantastic performance. they won also against manchester united, if i remember well. then got three points is important. >>

while much of europe is reacting warily to migrants and refugees from the middle east, south asia, and africa, riace welcomes them, with a smile. >> hey bon giorno. >> reporter: daniel yaboah is originally from ghana. >> i've known him for many years, this woman says. his children were born here. >> reporter: a familiar face here in riace, yaboah goes house to house collecting trash and recyclables along with his trusty donkey. he's been here 7.5 years. he says he was forced to flee death threats in ghana after his wife converted for him from islam to christianity. you have a life here? >> yes, of course. we have a life here, and the people here, give us a chance to feel like home, you know. the people here, they are used to foreigners, they are used to welcome everybody here. i'm very happy i'm here now. >> reporter: this couple, jasmin and shahid, arrived to riace with their daughter in november. jasmin says they fled pakistan, because her life was threatened by government officials. the family was bounced around migrant camps elsewhere in europe for months, until a knowing camp orga

and do we want to be at war with a country that is population combined with the middle east and south asia? are doing to try to figure out a way to diffuse that conflict? so it is interesting they are not afraid year radiantly use a nuclear weapon they're more concerned with the power before 1979. that is why the policy is so controversial and will continue to be. for their places in the region. in they put them on notice i have to say it was refreshing. and the saudis increasingly it is the nice way as it goes through its own rapid transition and i say bravo. >> when asked if he was he said we have been power in the region that is acknowledgement is not in terms of all moderation of actionable rhythm. in terms of moving forward. to see how sustainable is the course? are even president hillary clinton with the public remarks since the or what is next to that administration. with some territorial seal. if we could reflect on those and not neglect syria. if syria and add the iraq are part that has preoccupied foreign policy in the region. and going forward. this is something more grant what

regards asia as a strategic hole with the one belt and one road policy and aiming to expand chinese influence through the cass peen. we have three different bureaus responsible for south and east asia in the pacific creates a barrier to cooperation across the entire region. so i would like to hear what state department is doing to overcome obstacles that deals it with as a priority that includes south and central asia. shaying with structural issues in the state department, would you like to discuss if we are doing all we can from a resource stand point to ensure our asia policy will succeed. this is the smallest regional bureau in terms of personnel and the second lowest level of the foreign assistance. any questions about state department resources has to start here on capitol hill. i strongly support investing more in diplomacy and development across the board. our international affairs budget gives us tremendous bang for the buck but i wonder if anything could be done in foggy bottom so it is adequately resources. we've heard this is a priority and that should be reflected in the investments we make. lastly i would like to turn so the south china sea. we expect the law of

when the two of us had to work on contentious issues in the middle east and south and central asia, everythingstan through the middle east. and i saw her then as someone who was a consensus builder, always sought common ground. the same is on issues whether there is a divide within our country and the party. she's talked not only about getting to common ground but her record shows she can get there. >> donald trump talked about his ability, he thinks, to redraw the map. one of states he talks about is pennsylvania. do you think that he will bring enough white working class voters to the polls in november if he's the nominee, that pennsylvania could really be -- i say this especially to you, you are somebody who has been able to win over those white working class voters in between pittsburgh and philadelphia. >> i think, actually, hillary clinton's going to be the one who can win some of those vort voters back. you know the history of our state, you've got roots there southwestern pennsylvania used to be an easy region for democrats. now, outside of the city of pittsburgh and allegheny county,

sevenct that we sold cargoes and five went to south america, the middle east and asia, they did not gokely destination, europe. there are a lot of traditional players in the marketplace whose natural gas markets are on decline. andindonesia, trinidad algeria. they have less to offer the marketplace. is, hopefully we have seen the bottom of the oil .arket we are not largely exposed to the oil market. those three elements will begin to supply a floor in the market. alix: what is the minimum margin you are happy with? that is clearly under discussion. as i said before, we contracted at 2.25 all the way up to 350. clearly some of the contract talks it of come out recently, -- we don't think the contracts really clear the marketplace. that is a matter of debate right now serious with the market rushing to sign long-term contracts, it gives us time to sort out for we want to be on that continuum. focus -- we'rey focused on the margin. have sold seven cargoes in the marketplace so far, all profitable at a two dollars. that is a function of the base price. right now we have a relatively press

i think for a lot of us we have more awareness of what's happening in the middle east or south asia andr has gone completely off the rails. when i look at hillary clinton, she's obviously a very qualified politician. she put her vote in support of an iraq war that cost us $2 trillion and has given us nothing. we're less safe now. now you have a candidate who saying why are we spending all this money abroad and not on ourselves, on student loans, on health insurance, on a fair wage and all these concerns? yeah, part of it is foreign policy but also it's an awareness the foreign policy is based on lies and deception and we want to bring it back to us as americans. >> good to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. new york yankee fans are known for their diehard loyalty to their team but even they can turn on each other when it comes to the issue of politics. cal perry is getting a plush assignment outside of yankee stadium though i am told he will not make it into the game. what are you hearing from fans two days before they head to the polls out there? >> reporter: so, yeah. it

than all the gulf states combined, that borders the three most volatile regions in central asia, middle east and south asia, or do we want to try to figure out a way to diffuse the conflict? what's interesting is when you look at what saudi arabia is most concerned about, they're not afraid that the iranians are going to use a nuclear weapon if they had one. they're much more concerned about iran's return to that place in power that they had before 1979. that's why this policy is so controversial and will continue to be, because the saudis have begun to realize, particularly with the price of oil declining, that they -- you know, their place in the region is diminishing and president obama's rather blunt comments in the goldberg interview put them on notice. i have to say, i thought it was, in some ways, refreshing. very unpolitical -- very undiplomatic. it was a way of letting the saudis know, you can't -- and the saudis have increasingly treated us as their policemen, and it was a nice way at a time that saudi arabia was going through its own very, very frangile transition of putting them on notice.

today in the middle east, south asia and africa, we see radical terrorism, the blind influence of iran threatening the regional order, destroying isis is the top operational priority of the president of the united states and the army conventional and special operations forces are both playing a key part in that effort. in europe or russia, modernized its military, invaded several sovereign countries since 2000 and continues to act aggressively toward its neighbors using multiple means of russian national power. army will play an increasing role in deterring or if necessary defeating an aggressive russia. in asia, and the pacific, there are complex systemic challenges with the rising china that is increasingly assertive militarily especially in the south china seas, and a very provocative north korea, both situations are creating conditions for potential conflict. again, the united states army is key to assuring our allies in asia and deterring conflict or defeating the enemy, if conflict occurs. while none of us in this room or anywhere else can forecast precisely when and where the ne

of young people in various parts of the world and particularly in the middle east and north of africa and south-central asia where they know what the rest of the world has, they don't have it and they know they don't have it. >> rose: and they have access to knowing it because of social media? >> exactly. and they see the connectedness and they are not connected to anything. and they are ripe for the picking of some kind of radicalization, and for the moment that has become a very, very dangerous, you know, extreme element of islamic distortion that is putting many, many people at risk. and what i worry about is, charlie, that there are hundreds of millions of kids in africa and the region who need to be educated, not ten years from now, tomorrow, and if you leave them without opportunity. >> rose: to believe they have a future. >> bad government, corruption surrounding them and the only thing coming at them is a drum beat of a distortion of religious belief, that can be dangerous for everybody, and i think that is the greatest challenge we face in terms of security today. when someone can be built into a k

south asia, north africa, middle east, sub-saharan africa, latin america, western countries, asia-pacific. since 2007, 70 8% of all terrorist attacks of happened and 10 country. the quote i give you before is from 2002 to 2014. since 2007, 78% of happened in iraq, pakistan, afghanistan, india, thailand, russia, somalia, nigeria, yemen, and colombia. the trend is starting to change russia and columbia have seen decreases. libya and egypt have seen decreases. why is that relevant other than understanding the data accurately? that is because a lot of these countries are in the same neighborhood. that is important for us to recognize for a variety of reasons, which, again, we are running a little bit out of time, but i will take it in the question and people have questions. latin america is the region with the most positive overall results that we are seeing, and in a hyper connected world, far away problems can affect local threat, and political violence can escalate and spread rapidly. that is also why, from a self-interested standpoint, when thinking about extremism, is it is happening in

alliances in east asia, particularly with south korea and japan are facing these head winds need to evolve with in partnership with the united states and to some extend with others. in the context of a brief answer, how do they need to evolve? they need more structures in the region. too often issues are handled bilater bilaterally. that is a tough channel in which to deal with issues. there is no mechanism for parking problems. for all the fun many americans have at the expense of europe and alphabet soup of all these organizations, et cetera, the europeans are not just a crazy confluence that created all these things in europe. they have tried to do is to figure out means to resolve conflict. if there is a land dispute, they figure out some committee that is embedded in somewhere in the kabouls of the eu or say okay, that committee will study that for the next ten years. they managed to deal with it. i think europe has done remarkably well and i support the point that we shouldn't lose sight of it or think it's a disneyland where you go there for vacation, especially when the exchange ra

alliances in east asia, particularly with south korea and japan, who are facing these major social and demographic head winds in the near, medium and longer term, need to evolve in order to most evidentively in partnership with the united states, and to some extent with beijing and other, australia, singapore, even vietnam, how do they need to evolve in order to most effectively tackle these challenges. >> in context of a brief answer, how do they need to evolve, i think we need more multilateral structures in the region. i think too often issues are handled bilaterally. that is a tough channel. it's a constant alphabet soup. it's not just a crazy confluence of events that created all these things in europe. what they have clearly tried to do is to figure out means to resolve conflict. and so if there's some nasty little land dispute with some country in southern europe, they figure out some committee that's, you know, embedded somewhere in the bowels of the eu where they can say okay, that committee is going to study that for the next ten years and they manage to deal with it. i think

east and asia. we're going with south america. we're done with you guys. instead, the american presidents truman, eisenhower, democrat and republican, and the congress working together in a nonpartisan way, say we're going to commit 100 million dead americans in a nuclear war to keep western europe safe. today could we do that again over the middle east? i don't know that we have the political unity in our own country to stand up for something like that in the same way. to thelieve the answer other questions to the audience. >> along those lines, the number one oil producer in the world now is the united states. do you think there is anything about the way the united states looks to the world. the way the u.s. thinks about global security, is there anything that's changed because our oil production has made us into a global oil super arrow. gen. mattis: i would just give three imperatives to stay engaged in the middle east. the first one is oil. we may not be tied to mid east oil so much. but believe me, from washington to new york, from san francisco to m

the second thing is there are a couple of regimes, south asia and india and its neighbors and east and central africa where there's a lot of underweight remaining. people are undernourished and they're not going down as much as we thought they should. >> what trends are you seeing? is it too obvious to say developed nations are the ones that are -- that have the obesity problems and developing nations by and large still see malnutrition? >> that's far too simplification. one of the purposes of the study was to provide the fine grain details. highest sea levels aren't happening in countries. pacific island nations, middle east area, some parts of caribbean and latin america are have been some highest obesity levels. there's some sense that the high income level largely with the exception of the english-speaking world is eating better. >> we have these countries, the u.s. u.k., new zealand and australia and canada and ireland, different parts of the world and they all have a similar problem. is it a cultural issue as well? >> culture may be an exaggeration with the broader food environme

east asia. here is an extended outlook around the world. >>> we have breaking news this hour. south korea news agency says north korea's attempt to launch a ballistic missile has failed. they say the medium range missile was fired from the country's east early friday morning. south korea's defense ministry officials say they're gathering information. once again, news agency in south korea says the attempt by north korea to launch a ballistic missile has failed. they say the medium range missile was filed, that's in north korea east, early friday morning. south korea defense officials say they're gathering information, and we'll keep you updated on the story and on the situation in other parts of the world, including northeastern japan, where a magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck. we'll be back with the latest at the top of the hour. thanks for joining us. ernie stevens: on this edition of "native report," we'll visit little bighorn national monument in montana. rita aspinwall: we'll attend the crow summer institute. ernie stevens: and we'll interview the crow nation chairman, darrin old

south. so denver is looking at a high of 24 degrees. now as we take a look at t the forecast for east asia, it has been a gloomy, cloudy day. quite warm in japan. we had showers earlier. now we're seeing most of that departing from the country, but we are going to see warm temperatures remain in the area. highs are expected to be around 20 degrees around central japan as we go forward in time. back to the southeastern portion of china we will continue to see heavier rainin taking place. we are in the rainy period where we are going to see some problems. rain from hong kong to taipei. ing chongqing 21. in tokyo, temperatures into the lower 20s. i want to show you the weekend, look at this. looking dry for tokyo for friday, saturday, but then rain comes into the picture for sunday for most of the country. you want to keep that inin mind. also rain into shanghai, mainly drying out by sunday. as we wrap things up with a look at the middle east. we've been talking about a couple areas of strong weather, iraq and amman looking at heavy rainfall. we're looking at the rainfall to continue. the nex

you say in north asia, you say about japan and south korea, if they don't start paying more, we're pulling out. in the middle eastif the saudis and jordanians don't start paying, we'll pull out. in mexico, if you don't build the wall, blah, blah, plblah, we'll cut off your trade. this is based on i don't need this deal. but the existing deals with the middle east, the existing deals with europe -- >> do you think we have to protect -- >> we don't need nato? >> nato is obsolete and we're spending disproportional -- >> how about the middle east? >> we are spending so much money. you know what, with fracking and all of the things that are taking place and with all of the oil that canada has, canada has almost more than anybody, when you look at what we have, we aren't dependent on that anymore. >> we don't need jordan or the saudis or the emirates? we don't need those countries? >> people have to pay their fair share. saudi arabia was making $1 billion a day and we're defending them and getting almost nothing -- >> but you're the only one that can cut a deal. >> they don't cut deals like i cut deals. that i can tell

asia and middle east and africa. what did they do and what do they mean for us? >> the vikings are an amazing society and sea farers and ships took them thousands of miles south whereasia and in europe. they also travelled westward and expanded and settled the north atlantic. and so what this discovery really suggests, when we look back and think of the viking realm, it spans the entire length of the north atlantic a thousand years ago, and that is just astonishing. >> what happened to their culture and the affect when they landed here especially with the natives that they encountered? >> we know very little at this point as to what happened and how long they were here. these are answers that were, you know questions that we are hoping to answer. we know that at least from the viking sagas and the legends that were written centuries later, that the vikings up north did encounter native peoples and did not have a good encounter. but woef also found evidence that they traded with the indigenous peoples. >> did you go out there yourself? what was your reaction when you wrote the story? >> i was there and in newfoundland last june and there when the archaeologist were

asia, you say that about japan and south korea. if they don't start paying more, we're pulling out. you say in the middle eastjordanians, saudis, we're pulling out. mexico, if you don't build the wall, blah, blah, blah, we'll cut off trade. this bargaining technique is i don't need this deal. these existing deals we have with europe -- >> you don't need them. >> do you think we have to protect somebody? >> we don't need those deals? >> we don't really need nato in its current form. nato is obsolete and we're spending disproportionate -- >> how about the middle east? >> we are spending so much money. with fracking and all of the things that are taking place and with all of the oil that canada has, canada has more than almost anybody, when you look at what we have, we aren't dependent on that anymore and we very shortly -- >> we don't need jordan, the saudis, the emirates? >> people have to pay their fair share. saudi arabia was making $1 billion a day. >> i know. >> and we're defending them and we're getting -- >> you are the only one that can cut a deal. no one else has been able to cut a deal. >> they don't

south korea, and others. in fact, off the cuff, he said, let them have nuclear weapons. so we'd have an arms race under his theory not just in the middle east but also in asiai have no idea what that means other than it scares me and it scares a lot of thoughtful leaders around the world. united states has kept the peace. we have created the conditions for global prosperity. we now have to up our game economically so that more americans benefit from that global prosperity, and i have the plans i think that will deliver on that, but if we withdraw from the world, if we, in a sense, build a wall around the united states, we will pay a big price and i think if he decides to continue with that sort of foreign policy, national security, ad libbing, it's going to cause a lot of serious questioning among our friends and allies that could have unfortunate consequences for our policies. >> the criticism that he has raised about nato, which you were just discussing there, is obviously raising eyebrows not just around the world but also here at home. it's seen as a very, very radical proposal that we would turn our back on nato. there is an element of his criticism wh
