dialogue between north korea and the us were the main part of our dialogue. yet concrete the measures for denuclearization and corresponding actions. should be discussed between north korea and the us. south and north korea discussed. only a certain level of that topic and do we discussed a lot about how much we should include in the joint declaration but actually the agreement itself was not hard to reach. we did not include all the topics that we discussed into the declaration. but when i. have a summit meeting with president trump i am going to. provide more information on those points to present trump card as if you already know what the u.s. sometimes wants to have their messages delivered through south korea. on the contrary north korea sometimes wants us to serve as. a carrier of their message so i am going to play an important role of facilitator. second question please. some day leave from j.t. b.c. . if you don't you know somebody from jay to. do much again congratulations on your successful visit to pyongyang for the past two nights and three days i

differences compared with the 2012 free trade agreement that had been negotiated between the us and south koreakey differences have to do with the number of us cars that can be sold into the south korean market, as well as the fact that south korea agreed to a quota when it comes to the amount of steel that it can sell into the us market. as a result, it won't be subject to those steel ta riffs won't be subject to those steel tariffs the trump administration imposed earlier this year. but the key thing about this agreement is that, while it probably won't do much to significantly decrease the trade deficit between the us and south korea, it does provide the trump administration with an easy when when it comes to the many trade battles it is fighting across the world —— easy win. battles it is fighting across the world -- easy win. let's take a look at the oil markets, and crude prices climbing above $81 for brent crude, its highest level since november 20 14. opec its highest level since november 20 1a. opec leader in saudi arabia and its biggest ally outside the group, russia, have ruled out a

us—china trade war — washington announces tariffs on $200 billion worth of goods. rescue workers in the philippines search for dozens of miners and theirfamilies — buried by landslides during typhoon mangkhut. south korea'sdent heads north to pyongyang, hoping to restart denuclearisation talks with kim jong—un. and getting that red carpet feeling — the emmy awards are underway. we'll get the latest from los angeles. the us has announced new 10% tariffs on $200 billion worth of chinese goods they'll be levied on 5,000 products imported to the united states from next week. they're the biggest round of tariffs imposed by the trump administration over what it calls beijing's unfair business practices. the president's told china it has had plenty of opportunity to address the issue and that any retaliation will see tariffs imposed on even more chinese products. let's talk to sharanjit leyl from our business team in singapore. hello to you sharanjit. president trump remaining but to his word. good to his word and wasting no time at all. 10% tariffs on some $200 billion worth of chinese goods which ta ke billion worth of chinese goods which take effect next monday, 2a september and is also warned that 10% will

so south korea and the us are major trading partners, with trade in goods and services worth just over1; billion every year. under the new terms, south korea's agreed to exempt 50,00 cars per us manufacturer each year from complying with local safety requirements — that's about double the current level. it also extends a 25% us tariff on south korean trucks, which had been due to expire in three years. so that's the win for the us. the us has agreed to exempt the majority of south korean steel from the tariffs, that president trump announced in march. kim gittleson in new york says the deal has been described as largely cosmetic. shockingly, this is the first trade deal negotiated by the trump administration, which is perhaps better known for whipping up trade pacts, as opposed to signing new ones. that is because when it comes to this particular trade deal with south korea, well, it was one that was easy for the trump administration to win. that is because as one analyst said, this is a change that is largely cosmetic. tinkering with a deal that had been agreed between the us and sout

completion of the brand new us korea trade deal. and this is just the beginning. many nations in this hall will agree that the world trading system is in dire need of change. for example countries. were admitted to the world trade organization that violate every single principle on which the organisation is based. while the united states and many other nations play by the rules these countries use government run industrial planning and state owned enterprises to rig the system in their favor. they engage in relentless product dumping. forced. technology transfer and the theft of intellectual property. the united states lost over three million manufacturing jobs nearly a quarter of all steel. and sixty thousand factories efter china joined the w t m. and we have racked up thirteen trillion dollars in trade deficits. over the last two decades. but those days are over. we will no longer tolerate such abuse we will not allow our workers to be victimized our companies to be cheated. and our wealth to be plundered and transferred. america will never apologize for protec

especially because they have the un command on the korean peninsula and we have got us forces stationed in south korear them. it is not clear that the two sides have evei'i is not clear that the two sides have even agreed on what denuclearisation means that. so the fundamentals of that need to be squared away. also, it has become trickier because the north is demanding that washington declared the end of the korean war with south korea before it takes any denuclearisation measures and now that has gotten a lot trickier because what does that mean? what is this mean? what does the end of war declaration mean? really, the road ahead is going to be a lot of twists, it is going to be long, it is going to be bumpy, the key question is not only is whose side is time on, but i think the key question will be whose patients will run out first? will it see president trump, president moon jae—in, run out first? will it see president trump, president moonjae—in, or president kim jong—un? —— will it be. 29 people, mostly miners and their families, —— let's get some of the day's other news. russia and turkey have a

and second is, as you mentioned, to try to revive us—north korea talks and the second part, reviving ant for south korea, especially for president moon because he wants to accomplish his agenda. his peace agenda. they have a single five—year term so, as long as the us and north korea are engaged and, if there is progress on the nuclear issue, that means that sanctions can be lifted and that is good news for the south korean president. what is needed to break the impasse between the north korean and us on these? the north korean and us on this? the challenge right now is they are stuck in this lull, in the stalemate of who makes the first move. from the us standpoint, they need north korea to take a serious and credible step towards denuclearisation, like in the form of a nuclear inventory. from north korea standpoint, it believes it has done so much already with unilater action taken before the singapore summit and shortly after. the north is demanding that washington agreed to declare that the korean war is over but declaring the korean war over is a tricky and complicated complex is

co—ordination with the us, especially because they have the un on the korean peninsula and us forces stationed in south koreaave their work cut out for them. it is not clear that the two sides have even agreed on what denuclearisation means. so the fundamentals of that need to be squared away but it has also become trickier because the north is demanding that washington declare the end of the korean war between it and south korea before it ta kes a ny between it and south korea before it takes any denuclearisation measures. that has gotten trickier because what does that mean? what does peace means? what is this end of war declaration meant? the road ahead will be a lot of twists and it will be long. it will be bumpy. the key question really is not only is whose side is time on but the key question will be whose patience will run out first? kim jong—un, president will be whose patience will run out first? kimjong—un, president moon or president trump? 29 people, mostly miners and their families, are still missing after a landslide buried their shelter in the northern phillippines during a typhoon. some bodie

not enough was being done to meet the terms that were agreed during the summit between the us and north koreahey look back at singapore, the criticism is that the framework that they agreed to use was too loose, is too vague because, in fact, the trump administration does not have grounds to say, kim jong—un is in violation of anything that was agreed because they did not reach a specific agreement or a timetable. when secretary pompeo went for a follow—up negotiation injuly, the two sides did not really get anywhere. so there is no question that, at the negotiating level, at the secretary of state level, the us—north korea process has stalled out. but what is important is that you are still seeing political signals by kim jong—un that he wants to move forward with that framework — peace and denuclearisation, of a new kind of relationship between the us and north korea. now boasts chairman kim jong—un and president donald trump have renewed their commitment, they do want to realise that framework. i just wonder what you make of the significance of the first mass games being held since 2013. w

so there is no question that at the negotiating level, at the secretary of state level, the us—north koreau are still seeing political signals by kim that he wants to move forward with the framework. the denuclearisation, a new relationship between the us and north korea. now boasts kim jong—un and donald trump have renewed their commitment and they do want to realise that framework. i wonder what you make of the significance of the first mass games being held since 2013. what do we read into that? i wish i were there to watch it. i did go and meet some people in north korea and i saw the mass games in their last iteration two times. so it will be interesting to compare. it is a lot of signalling. the mass games are also important in terms of the domestic signalling, as is the parade. again, you need to look for the message from kim jong—un about economic development. your correspondent made a good point, criticising the conditions in the country but the flipside that is that kim jong—un is consistently sending this message to the north korean people that the economy is going to improve. s

went in with exemptions because the us is a big market for south korea, 65% of exports gorts go to america. they said let us not have a tariff, let's have a quarter. this is to some extent a political move because it is reinstating some of that. president trump healing this as a big deal, he is keen to point out he can do these big trade deals. even though he is mired about a trade deal with the eu. he is fighting the midterms and he is thinking about the next presidential election. donald trump is the deal maker and he likes to see success saw his strategy at the moment is to say we are prepared to be more flexible on this deal. we will do some deals to be able to create an appearance that we are open for business and we are doing trade deals. forgive me when we talk about south korea being a small market, he is mired in that trade war with china, the worlds second largest economy, with the eu, and concerns over what deal he will get with japan, and yet he is healing a deal with south korea which is small. this is a small deal for south korea and even relatively small dea

use of them. and we have seen north koreans cyberattacks on the financial systems in south korea, malaysia. lsewhere. their ability to use what are somewhat deniable tools, and the sanctions that we saw last week on chinese and russian tech firms working with north korea showed that the north koreans are quite sophisticated in the way they are building up their technologies. i think even as the strategy moves forward on trying to achieve denuclearization, it's important to have a robust strategy to manage these other capabilities. but i think we could increasingly seen north koreans using. >> i want to move to the audience. but before i do so, there's an idea that has been floated out there that i want to get your thought on. the way we move forward is we have a declaration per declaration exchange. that the united states makes a political declaration, presumably was south korea, north korea, and china, that the korean is over. and in return, north korea provided us with a declaration of their nuclear program, facilities, and how much facilities they haven't weapons. what are your thoughts?

he's pushing for vision of korea the doesn't line up with the us vision. s a peace deal. it seems he is pushing toward a unified korea. he wants to do more business with china. what you have going on is mike pompeo and nikki haley at the un pushing on the russians and other countries for not complying with us sanctions against north korea while we are trying to pressure the world into putting north korea in the corner. you have moon hugging kim jong un, riding in a convertible with him in a military parade, farting all over each other. these are stark visuals. when you look at what mike pompeo and nikki haley are doing and look at how president moon is having a lovefest with kim jong un, very different contrast between how the two countries are approaching the problems. todd: you likened moon to the barack obama of asia, explain how that is the case, what parallel do you see between the two leaders? >> i said that on hannity a month or two ago. what do i mean that that he is the barack obama of asia? he wants to pursue a deal to get the north koreans to den

using your play weapons so now is the time for us to show some goodwill to prove that north korea can safely denuclearize. the i did the china can bring us on our knees is a pipe dream of people who are ignorant about us but the problem is that the continued sanctions are deepening our mistrust the reason behind the recent deadlock is because the u.s. relies on chorus of measures which are lethal to trust building without any trust in the u.s. will be no confidence in our national security and to set circumstances there is no way we'll unilaterally to cells first and is there any indication at all that the u.s. is willing to reverse its policy on sanctions considering the small between. this week at the u.n. general assembly certainly mike and ambassador nikki haley were very firm in stating what the u.s. position remains the same the need for maximum pressure on north korea and till it arises or in that order sanctions denuclearization then that north korea will see some sort of benefit however as you said donald trump has been very upbeat was very upbeat here in new york saying

forces in korea and the joint to us republic of korea command from the viewpoint of international law under conditions all went in one thousand nine hundred one the two states became fully fledged members of the u.n. maintaining the command in korea which confirms that that entity as a bill the u.n. as a belligerent party to two that it is illegally from a legal view point is nonsense under current conditions when the deep barricade is officially stating that they're trying to prevent a new conflict and calling upon for a declaration to and to the war on the peninsula and sign a peace treaty what we need to do is analyze the role and the need for such troops they were determined in the fifty's under a security council resolutions eighty four and eighty five they were passed against a specific historic context the e.u.'s are at the time boycotted meeting and corn minturn was sitting in the place of the people's republic of china basically they have nothing to do with the you and so we are therefore need to consider the possibility overdrawing and the. of the thirtieth the ga provided f

and north korea they're looking for one thing each of us wants north korea to come out and make some kind of sincere concrete gesture toward denuclearization and north korea wants to us to join in on this declaration to end the korean war but unfortunately the ball is now in north korea for and responsibility is to bring back some kind of concrete detail commitment commitment from north korea as to how they're going to proceed with this new nuclear reservation and here is coming down the steps now with his wife to be greeted by kim jong il and. what will be going through kim jong un's mind at this time following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather all doing better than him and having these meetings with his opposite number from the south well there have been questions as to whether kim jong un is really different from his predecessors but i think at this point it's safe to say that. one's some kind of change to come to north korea and he has been more serious about this denuclearization process than what we have seen in the past from north korea i'm sure he's also feeling

outside the rest of the world with the advantage that i had was living in the border town of north korea . they used north korea from the satellites just from the north. we did not have a selection committee though i could see the elections from coming out of china and that's how i said if i go to china, i might find some other life. and that was the only thing i had. i had no ideawhat was going to happen to me if i stayed . if i had to go somewhere, i don't die of starvation. >> what do you remember about seeing the light in, is it changbai china? even the food smells you talk aboutwould drift over to north korea . >> i had to think of this thing, we have nothing to envy in this world. at that point, all i saw was just envy, that i envy people who were in that life but i envy the people who were across the border, and i couldn't believe how that could determinesomeone's life that much . because i was born in the side of the river, i had to start and be a slave, but because other people who were born on the otherside of the river , they have electricity, have paved roads, have a car.it was hell and

longer need nuclear weapons to defend ourselves, we will test the order of the logic that north korea has been using all the time. and a declaration were drafted in accordance with north korea's consistent logic, they believe that you have to agree what new relations, history, guarantees, where are they? and why are you talking about denuclearization? denuclearization should be the result of all these things. i think they believe in action for action. they believe these things should be done at the same time. and that's what they have been arguing all along. on this declaration for declaration idea, if it is a full declaration, including material holding, then declaration of the clandestine enrichment facility, all those things are included. this is very important initial step. that preserves it word for word. but a partial declaration that we already know, a declaration that we can get, i don't think that's worth that much. and i think the first mistake that president trump has made was to give away person political exercises for nothing. north korea is claiming that what they did in terms of shutt

and north korea pyongyang asked us to be the mediator they propose to work closely with south korea as well i think the u.s. should understand the position of north korea and resume the talks as soon as possible i believe the accomplishments made at the summit this time will lead to the progress option of the talks. now to robert wright is live for us in seoul resisting that move went straight to the media center to make this speech from the airport after his three day trip. that's right laura it was his first stop was basically to try to sell this now to the south korean nation he has come back in confident mood as indeed he should i think people here are generally agreed that this is something of a high point in into korean relations it's difficult to remember a time when relations were as good as this but after the last several days of smiles and handshakes and hugs he's been facing some tough questions just about the details of the kind of deal that he has come back with and also what now lies ahead in this role as the mediator in chief if you like he has repeated in his address to

are serious to using north korea is about denuclearisation? well... i do think it is difficult to imagine them completely denuclearising, it is certainly difficult to imagine without some sort of peace regime and radically different relationship with the united states. for now, moonjae—in is concerned with just getting the dprk in north korea and the united states into the peace process. the focus now is on the entry point. worked as north korea have to do to get the us to agree to a peace declaration and then the difficult negotiations about denuclearisation and what a peace regime looks like can begin. we hope to bring our viewers pictures that we have coming into was here. this is live in seoul at the airbase where president moon jae—in will be leaving to board that flight jae—in will be leaving to board that flight that you can see they are, heading for pyongyang. it is the first visit in over ten years by a south korean president to the capital of north korea for those talks with tim donlon. let's stay with these pictures but as it were saying, th
