america. ok we're going to go back to our top story now the u.n. security council is expected to vote on a resolution on whether to impose even tougher sanctions on north korea following its latest nuclear test. there as the nation was drafted by the u.s. and we will discuss this further now with craig a. senior market analyst at and craig thanks for joining us here on r.t. if we look at the reports the new draft looks to have significantly been revised from the one that was circulating last week. it's proposed an oil embargo on pyongyang and a freeze of kim jong un's personal assets why do you think in your opinion washington seems to have abandoned some of the the tougher measures it measures it suggested earlier. to be honest i'm surprised they've got through as much as they have got through the problem that the u.s. faces is going to be facing opposition from china and russia in particular both of which have veto powers in our interests nor allowing all of these measures to be carried out at this moment in time of course both countries i do think are becoming c

u.n. security council we're being told in western nato nation media a great victory for nikki haley america's ambassador to the united nations who knows british foreign secretary boris johnson would do the sanctions that we voted for mean for north korea. well they mean basically nothing north korea is the more sunshine country in the well. being. around those sanctions since nine hundred forty eight and they will only give us more strength and determination to develop for nuclear deterrence do you think it surprises the north korean leadership i mean we're obviously washington knows that sanctions against say cuba haven't worked since the their revolution in the fifty's of course they can impose sanctions from united nations but life and international commerce is very different where the countries say in the security council later it will be fighting in reality so are actually the international commerce going to be stopped so what we are going to seize another failure big failure from the british of the united states until they really realize that a negotiation is the only option but western

america's prioritization of u.n. priorities, in other places, the u.n. security council is back front and center in the major national security crisis of the time which is north korea. and everyone involved recognizes that they need that body. now you have had haley and mcmasters say the u.n. has done all it can op this and we will go to the -- we may well go to military options, but the fact is trump needs the u.n. here and it's those substantive moves that i think are going to be more telling to the world leaders present there today. at the end of the day donald trump's president of the united states. the united states, you know, for all the discomfort you've heard publicly from them and even more so in private from many european and international diplomats, the fact is he's the american president. they've got to go shake his hand. they need him not just on north korea but any long range of issues they're facing right now. >> not shaking his hand will be two big players on the security council with veto power russia and china's leader would have been critical meetings

u.n. security council resolutions. calling israel the little satan and america the great satan. overthrowing foreign governments. the largest state sponsor of terrorism. i say that my colleagues on the other side of the aisle should be sharing our concern and supporting this a i thank mr. roskam for his leader shfment i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields back. the gentleman from illinois. mr. roskam: thank you, mr. chairman. to close as for the argument about ideological riders, look, this is the article 1 branch. it's the prerogative of the house of representatives and the long to speak and decide how money is to be spent. as to the notion that this -- accusation this preaches the jcpoa, as much of a critic as i am of this deal, this doesn't breach it. it's in compliance with t the notion of jobs is an interesting one and it creates a moral quandrifment until, mr. speaker, you balance out these two things, jobs versus lives, is that really a question here? and aren't lives more important than jobs? and isn't tan interesting thing that the -- several members of the washington state delegation where boei

u.n. security council measure maybe they could have been more unanimous view on the security council about having a one voice clear action with the north koreans but because america's going so hard and so fast alone down a very dangerous path that i think you know that's what's causing a real problem in the world level and we and i think world leaders need to really. say to trump that he needs to change his course fast because there's so much at stake. do you think it would be to bring north korea to the negotiating table that because just going on what we see in the media they're not an approachable regime inverted commas it just won't happen. well they're certainly a very difficult regime but it is possible to get some progress with any regime no matter how poor or difficult it's leadership we know that they're it's a resilient regime that when there's been real sanctions against north korean government that hasn't stopped funding of the military at the expense of of its population so we know that it's a resilient place that has stood up to real pressure before however if it was possible to think about some way of showing the north koreans who see themselves as a

america first base? >> he already has. only the u.s. and really western world response to north korea has been via the u.n., via security council, resolutions at the u.s., work through nikki haley. this was a priority, they pushed russia, china, they didn't get as far as they wanted to in terms of economic sanctions. >> because he called them not a very big deal. >> the fact is if you look at the policy, even with all the saber rattling of military options on the table, as jeff zeleny said there, here's the thing about military options and this is not said in clear terms publicly, any u.s. military option has enormous human cost for south korea, seoul is very close to that border, for u.s. citizens in south korea, for u.s. troops in south korea and not in the hundreds, right, but risking thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands. is that a cost that the american public is willing to bear and that the president is willing to take his country to. they have not articulated that case, so any time you hear military options -- and there are military options -- remember attached to them is enormous human cost, life, in a scale that we ha

america we begin this hour with the ongoing tensions between the u.s. and north korea president donald trump describes the resolution of the u.n. security council sanctions against north korea as quote not a big deal however he did say the unanimous vote speaks volumes this comes as the south korean government started testing long range ballistic missiles artes on your parm pill is in seoul south korea where tensions between the penciler countries are expected to rise as officials here meet to discuss how to implement the unprecedented sanctions passed by the u.n. security council this week targeting north korea and the foreign ministry underscores its commitment to apply economic and diplomatic pressure in order to weaken pyongyang today and provocative military activity south korean government launched a long range ballistic missile reportedly with a capability of. three hundred ten miles meaning if launched from anywhere near seoul it has the capacity to hit the entirety of the northern half of the peninsula it reportedly was launched from an f. fifteen fighter jet and dropped off the western coast successfully hitting a target after going t

security council chamber where he'll be talking about this u.s. u.n. reform as i said. originally when we looked at the very early days of the administration and you look to that inauguration speech in america first i can tell you diplomats i spoke to here at the united nations in new york were dismayed did this mean an end to the whole multilateral order that the u.n. has represented for the last seventy two years but i think nikki haley has been working on a slightly more conventional approach and working very closely with the new secretary general antonio good terrorists but then i do have to add the rider that this is president trump and he can always say something unexpected we also need to look. at how he performs here in terms of his body language as well as his words because there have been some rather embarrassing moments at previous meetings remember he's already attended a nato summit a g. seven and the g. twenty earlier in the year. that is something we all do know at this point let's thank james bays who's been watching live pictures coming in from the united nations where the u.s. president has arrived to the diverse and addressed on a forum on the u.n. reform. let's get some

america's about ambassador to the u.n. nikki haley has already said that she feels that the united nations security council has really already exhausted all of its options when it comes to north korea and she's already ready to hand over the crisis to the u.s. to secretary of defense that is and she added that in that case north korea would in fact be destroyed and those sort of comments are coming from a diplomat no less. i said yesterday i'm perfectly happy kicking this over to general mattis because he has plenty of military options if the united states has to defend itself or defend its allies in any way north korea will be destroyed and we all know that and none of us want that none of us want war so there we have haley herself saying she's happy to hand over the crisis and matt is not long ago described what that would sort of look like briefly and very trump ask words saying that the response would be overwhelming and effective and so that's something else we can listen to what he said a few weeks ago. any threat to the united states or territories including. or allies will be met with a massive military response the

u.n. security council, perhaps targeting the north's oil energy supplies and perhaps targeting countries or companies that do business with the north koreans and that puts america in t china in the crosshair there's talk of a possibility of more defiance and missile launches by the north koreans in the coming days, back to you guys. >> we're watching for all of those things thank you. back here in washington, president trump threatening to cut off any trade with any countries doing business with north korea. that would be an extraordinary move because number one on the list, china. long been the longest trading partner. as of today china said it will stop importing commodities and other things like seafood from north korea. china continues to supply oil to north korea and also allows north korean front companies to operate in china there's also russia. u.n. investigators found that a state owned truck company was operating a plant in north korea. the facility produced trucks later used by the north korean military there's also malaysia, it has allowed several north korea front companies to operate there, and then there's africa several countries there buy weapo

latest missile test north korea promising america would feel quote the greatest pain if the measure passes do you think what he happens with u.n. security councilll, i think there is still not being tough enough on north korea. >> and schiena. >> key country is china the china is only country can influence north korea's behavior, because, they depended on china for everything, it is -- it is very important that china sign on with us, not -- not to let north korea do that, because if they are able for example to use an electromagnetic pulse nuclear being no out our electric grid everything that is going on in florida, and texas is terrible, but the electricity back in a few days so forth but if electricity went down for years that would be very different world. >> catastrophic, jim woolsey as you so much former fbi director take care great to see you -- >> remembera rocking the state weak ended to tropical storm but packing powerful winds millions without power across florida live on the ground with aftermath. hundreds of health care workers to help with recovery effort, impact there next. im vern, the orange money retirement rabbit, from voya.
