korea. >> now in the past people have often thought that when the -- when north korea does its north korea saber rattling, it is trying to get attention and blackmail the world to get the money, sanctions relieve, food aid. do you think any of that is at play here? >> there has always been a pattern for north korea but i believe this time the north koreans are genuinely not interested in returning to talks with washington. >> so north korea is under a huge international sanctions. how is it able to find the funds to -- to pay for all of this modernization of its nuclear arsenal? >> on paper it looks like there is a lot of sanctions. but sanctions have to be implemented and china and russia are not playing ball. they have not been implementing sanctions for some time. right now north korea, as they have always done, rely on illicit activities to fund them. so current focus for example on cyberattacks, cryptocurrency, cyber heists, that is one way that north koreans are making money or get money to fund their program. >> and when you look at the international environment, does it seem

and saw korea from doing military drills . us at south korea would like to deter north korea from conducting additional missile tass. but that's not really what deterrence does. it's really just about trying to prevent the other. so raising the cost to the other side of potential conflict or war. and so i think that one of the problems, we have insurance competition, but the objectives on both sides are unrealistic. scott, you're talking about a deterrence a contest going on, but also you talked about this tit for tat that's been going on. this sort of cycle of escalation. can it be d escalated and, and how much concern is there about this? just becoming more of a cycle of escalation. well, i think that it can be escalated, but i think that it's likely to continue to escalate for the time being nor for i think needs crisis in order to be able to change its trajectory. and a lot of this is driven by the north korean desire to signal its displeasure around the us south korean military exercises and their resumption. the reason i think why we're free is uncomfortable with these exercises is bec

and north korea concern you? >> yes, it is our concern that russia and north korea are cooperating in various ways. and we have to prepare ourselves against any kind of provocation by north korea based on that relationship. >> reporter: the white house announced in december they believe north korea has delivered rockets and missiles to russian mercenary group wagner. as for taiwan and china's threats to take control of the island by force if necessary -- >> we are opposed to unilateral change of status quo by force. so in that session, we will make sure that if something happens in the taiwan straightt, we havo maintain peace and stability on the peninsula. >> reporter: the foreign minister also said that the u.n. security council can not be silent. he wants to see a more unified response when it comes to north korean transgressions, but of course that is very difficult at the moment with russia and china refusing to side at all with the united states when it comes to condemning anything pyongyang is doing. >> pa

and so north korea, i think basically wants to deter the u. s. and south korea from doing military drills. us at south gray. i would like to deter north korea from conducting additional missile tests, but that's not really what deterrence does. it's really just about trying to prevent the other. so raising the costs to the other side of potential conflict or war. and so i think that one of the problems, we have a deterrence competition, but the objectives on both sides are unrealistic. i think they can be escalated, but i think that it's likely to continue to escalate for being ne, i think needs crisis in order to be able to change its trajectory. and a lot of this is driven by the north korean desire to signal its displeasure around the us south korean military exercises and their resumption. iran is denying reports. it's intentionally enriched uranium beyond acceptable levels. the united nations nuclear watchdog says it's in talks after report suggested iran's uranium enrichment had gone up to 84 percent. a 90 percent threshold is required for

and we heard from kim jones sister who want us to stop threatening north korea security. what do you make of her statement and also, mason her emergence onto the world stage and some reports suggest she's been groomed to actually take over from kim jones. yeah, so you know, she as kim jong and sister has a special role to play, not only institutionally, with in north korea where she does occupy some relatively high official positions, you know, but also unofficially as the spokes person in part for the, for the family raheem her message is consistent with what it is that we think they can regime and north korea, you know, as a, as a state think about the us, south 3 alliance which ultimately they would like to break apart. and so this message about the u. s. hostile policy, which of course is not, is consistent with north korea as messaging as for we know who we could see is the change, the successor to kim jong. i think it's far too early to say that it could be, you know, his sister kimmy john, or whether or not as we've seen recently in discussion about whether or not

and south korea from doing military drills. us and south korea would like to deter north korea from conducting additional missile tests. but that's not really what deterrence does. it's really just about trying to prevent the others, so raising the costs to the other side of potential conflict or war. and so i think that one of the problems, we have insurance competition. but the objectives on both sides are unrealistic. i think they can be escalated, but i think that it's likely to continue to escalate for the time. being ne, i think needs crisis in order to be able to change the trajectory. and a lot of this is driven by the north korean desire to signal its displeasure around the u. s. south korean military exercises and their resumption. iran is denying reports. it's intentionally enriched uranium beyond the acceptable international levels. united nations nuclear watchdog says it's in talk. softer report suggested iran in richmond had gone up to 84 percent a 90 percent threshold of client for use and a weapon. iran has previously enriched up to 60 percent. tara started stepping up its nucl

north korea is not happy with the ramping up of the military exercises between the u. s. at south korea, which will take place in march, there's also a tabletop exercise that will look at nuclear scenarios that will happen between the u. s. and zachary, next week, and i think north korea sending a message that it is unhappy with that and it will cite fire, fire us in south korean war plains carried out a highly visible response to saturdays launch. south 3 defense ministry set, the drills headed by nuclear capable american b, one bombers, affirmed, united states commitment the extended deterrence of its nuclear weapons. the u. s. and japan held a similar separate exercise over waters of japan's west coast years of diplomacy, sanctioned and international censure. have done little to slow north korea's missile program since mountain al jazeera iran is denying reports. it has intentionally enriched uranium above 60 percent, not to nations that nuclear watchdog says it's and talks of the report suggested to ron's enrichment had gone up to 84 percent. and 90 percent threshold

>> you know, i think that they went ahead, they did have a meeting on north korea. they had it on the ballistic missile testing and what they're doing. >> but not on human rights. >> i think they should've had it on human rights. i think it's really important that we continue to call out north korea for how they treat their people. every dollar that goes into north korea doesn't go to feed its people. >> if you had been there, would they have done it that way? >> i would've pushed back. i would've pushed back and said, "we have to address this. we have to keep fighting for the people in north korea who want a better life." >> you know, another place where you were very active when you were u.n. ambassador at the -- u.s. ambassador to the u.n. -- was with respect to iran. since the recent protests in iran have begun, more than 1,000 people have died. one of the criticisms of withdrawing from the iran deal was thatwevingr lies hanging, and thathe united states might not actually be able to put adequate pressure on iran alone in order to force them back to the negotiat

and this has really angered north korea, north korea earlier today released a statement saying that the situation on the korean peninsula has cross a red line. and let me just quote, the statement here, the military and political situation on the korean peninsula has reached an extreme red line due to the reckless military, confrontational maneuvers and hostile acts of the u. s. and its vessel forces. this is a vivid expression of the u. s dangerous scenario, which will result the result in turning the korean peninsula into a huge war arsenal in a more critical wars zone. and so north korea saying that they will respond in kind to any military maneuvering by the u. s. and south korea. they said that they can use nuclear weapons if necessary. thank you for that bon bay lay joining us there from manila. now doctors in bolivia are worried about a surgeon case as if dangling favor lily. 2000 people are been infected in recent weeks and health workers fear the disease. it will spread even further. victoria getting billboards at this hospital in santa cruz, doctors say they've seen an alarmin

north korea, i think basically wants to deter the you.

we have seen them talking to north korea and to others. i really hope that the countries who do believe in sovereignty and territorial integrity will not join forces with this evil, declining, authoritarian country that is violating the u.n. charter. so i mean we are concerned about anyone potentially helping russia, and i truly hope that it's clear to the majority of countries now, if not all, that russia cannot win this. russia should be held accountable and punished for their actions if we all want to live in the country with international rule of law. >> ambassador, thank you so much for joining us. good luck to you. good luck to all of the people of ukraine as well. we're going to break down what we just heard from the ambassador with our correspondents and commentators. they're covering all the angles of president biden's historic trip to ukraine. that's coming up. you see them there. right after a quick break. >> announcer: "the situatition room" with wolf blitzer, brought to you by chase. make more of what's yours. like what you e

and north korea is responding to it with do you measures? and washington is exploit in the current situation. a significant breakthrough by north korea, in terms of its progress in developing missiles, was created in response to drills in the region, which ain't to enlarge the us military presence in the area and summoned more and more weaponry here like you would. yeah, read more about that as he more pictures as well. if you're interested at all t dot com in the meantime, we are back soon with more of your head. mm . ah shale did i flip the us to food id or there's a tune the when the tv phone that's silly. about a 50 rug day lackey quasi to the body shop and we'll solve the deck with somebody camera. loosen the money to carry out our programs and do our research for free meals comes from a variety of sources. ah, certainly from the u. s. government and other i, donor governments that are interested, are involved in promoting of democracy, human rights for so america is financed by the u. s. government and your voice of america is part of

robert brian has joining us live from sole and north korea. king distress here rod that the latest test was ordered on the day. that's right, said they are describing this is a state run. a media from north korea was what they call a sudden launching drill. they have in recent tests, been developing this technique whereby they deploy, set up a missile and fire it, lordship fairly quickly by doing that, you give your adversaries less chance to detect that you're launching a miss out to try to disrupt the missile launch or try to intercepted so they have been working on this technique. this is described by the north koreans has been a long 50. and this is one of the icbm since continental ballistic missiles they have been developing. it fell short of the northern japanese island of her after flying around $900.00 kalama disease. most interesting though is the last the trajectory of this miss. i'll it flew up nearly 6000 kilometers to an altitude of nearly 6000 kilometer before falling down to earth. again, that's very similar to a trajectory for

korea north korea. 1 once the world to see it's military, might you go? yes. in 2022, the country launched to dozens of miss isles. more than any other year on record. they included long range crews and ballistic weapons. north korea's leader kim jong own is the military supreme commander. his country may be poor, but on his watch it spends almost a quarter of its g. d. p on the military, according to the us state department. despite being 75 years old, the korean people's army, the k. p a is still shrouded in secrecy. it's made up of an estimated 1200000 personnel. in september 2017. kim signed off on north korea 6 and lost no nuclear test. i'm young at yahoo! that was quickly followed by pyongyang, claiming a new intercontinental ballistic missile. the while song 15 had been tested. you want to join in the entire united states is within range of our nuclear weapons. and nuclear button is always on my desk. this is reality not a threat or i am know. the exact size and strength of north korea's nuclear arsenal is unclear, but it's believed to possess up t

yeah, the key difference in 2023 is that north korea is no longerjust 2023 is that north korea is no longer just testing you missiles, it's actually designing missiles that clearly work and it's doing exercises to demonstrate their actual military, sorry, military drills basically, with missile capabilities so i think what we are going to see when the us— south korea exercises come up is a lot of tit—for—tat missile tests or north korean side and south korean military responses and there is a danger with this thatis and there is a danger with this that is the tempo increases, there is a risk something goes wrong, a miscalculation, an accident and that, i think, is accident and that, i think, is a big danger we should be anxious about moving ahead. that was chad 0'carroll working for the korea risk group speaking to us a bit earlier. now to the uk where a body has been found near the spot where a mother of two went missing three weeks ago. nicola bulley�*s disappearance last month has caused headlines around the world as the police revealed details of her private life more tha

how are living conditions within north korea? with these reports of food shortages compared to the situation or when we had a greater birmingham north korea in late to 99 cheese. it doesn't that look like north korea, our face is that kind of great been in yet. but as you mentioned earlier, the situation is very bad at the moment and it is going to be worse and worse. and it, except an international are happening age or opening the border again, north korea's with face more difficulties in the future. you talked about some of the reasons and all korea find itself in this situation. taught to what extent are the sanctions against beyond young old so to blame because we've heard of us officials say that the long term solution to north korea's chronic food insecurity was partly in a resolution of the nuclear issue which would potentially bring about significant economic sanctions. relief, do you share that view? oh, i don't believe that north korea would give up is nuclear program at all because that is the only bargaining power for

this show of hardware seems to confirm north korea and it's leader kim jong on are still embarked on the same path of weapons development that we saw from last year 2020, to witnessing an unprecedented flurry of missile activity with around 80 ballistic missiles. being launched from north korea of particular interest on this parade were some of the longer range intercontinental ballistic missile icbm, the type of weapon capable of reaching the united states at which north korea began testing again last year after a break of several years. also on display in this parade was one type of icbm which north korea claims to be powered by solid fuel engines, or which would be a particular development, a particular advance in its missile technology. north korea is also though, been putting a lot of effort into its development of its arsenal, of sure to range ballistic missiles, which it says are capable of carrying nuclear warheads. and i'll see as a direct threat to neighbors such as south korea, south korea in return has promised a tough response working with its allies, japan, and the unit

north korea, i think basically wants to deter the u. s. and south korea from doing military drills. us a soft grey would like to deter north korea from conducting additional missile tests. but that's not really what deterrence does. it's really just about try to prevent the others. so raising the costs to the other side of potential conflict or war. yes, diplomacy sanctions and international censure have done little to slow north korea's missile program. 100 funds are just the pendulum coverage of all stories. so we're covering here on our website out 0 dot com and that's it for me, nor obtain in the future. i'll be here in just a couple of minutes with more today here. thanks so much for watching. lou . a touchy money into african gold and exclusive l 0 investigation. coming soon. inspiring stories from around the world. it's coming up now. we're not the only one that's a human life capture. and it's a fast one. this feels like the presentation of what i want people to remember me by. groundbreaking food, from award winning filmmakers. wi

on south korea over her thing, a nuclear war against north korea, i think that it would take unprecedentedly strong action. the joint drills focused on the detection, trucking and inception of ballistic missiles. us on south korea also launched for strategic cruise missiles. 2 countries have been in since 5 military jails for the past decade, leading to an escalation of tensions in the region. we are also conduct multiple test rockets launches over the years. let's go live now to don mclean guild, our rights of the south on south east asia, philippine middle east studies association. thanks very much for joining us this afternoon. dawn now certainly is strong words from north korea about those gels, but certainly nothing we've not seen or heard before. right, thank you so much for having me. and in fact, you know, north korea is interest in general. we summarize based on 2 factors. there is a national security component and the economic development component from john young's point of view the u. s. and it's alliance in the western pacific know serve as an existential threat to its existence

north korea has repeatedly launch missiles in quick succession, significantly increasing tensions north korea series of actions threatened to the peace and security of japan, the region and international community, and are absolutely unacceptable. but china's a foreign ministry says it has concerns about the developments on the korean peninsula, but it says its position has not changed. beijing is north korea's largest trading partner, long time ally for that sir. get more from katrina. you who's in beijing for us now . katrina, bring us up to speed of china's reaction to us. while they doing says it's mostly the situation very closely. it considers the korean peninsula, its own backyard as one of the few countries that has a good relationship with north korea and even has influence overcome yan. now when it came to this issue, china said that it's position had not changed, that it will continue to promote dialogue in order to maintain peace and stability in the region and avoid confrontation. now what's important is what we didn't hear from beijing. we didn't hear any sort of condemnat

shery: a little more on north korea. we are hearing comments from a north korean official through the state media. saying that pyongyang says u.s. force movement is becoming more active and north korea will respond accordingly if u.s. movements pose concerns. we know the u.s. condemned the icbm launch by north korea and has held aerial drills with south korea and japan in a show of force this weekend. north korean officials say it is up to the u.s. how often the pacific is used as a shooting range so we are getting fishel comments coming from north korean officials. let's turn to india. we are seeing signs investors in indian stocks are moving beyond adani groups concerns. fairly bullish now again? reporter: that's right. when you look at what and local managers are seen, they expect a key benchmark, the sensex, to reach a all-time high. we are actually heading back into that direction again. this is down to strong domestic demand expected to boost corporate earnings. the overseas funds are starting to come back into the

this is the 2nd message that north korea has fired so far this year on january 1st, it fired a short range ballistic missile. but of course, during 2022. there was an unprecedented flurry of missile activity with around 80 or so, missiles being tested on fire, many of them short range, but also including several, it's thought icbm, intercontinental ballistic missiles. this has been condemned by japan and also by south korea. the national security council here has had a meeting describing this as a serious provocation. and us secretary state anthony blinking has called for more effective implementation of sanctions against north korea following the massage launch. so this is not yet again the rocker back by north korea in violation of multiple humans, group counsel resolutions we call on others to commend this action to take appropriate steps including the effective enforcement sessions. and so the result of these actions by a more 3, it is simply to even further solidify the work that we do together of the alliance of the share and our commitment to the defense of our partners and ou

north korea is not happy with the ramping of military exercises between the u. s. at south korea, which will take place in march. there's also a tabletop exercise that will look at nuclear scenarios that will happen between the u. s. and zachary, and next week, and i think north korea sending a message that it is unhappy with that and it will a fight. fire fire. what is the good thing didn't hide? you've got to pull them. you thought well, saturdays launch. still took some hours between order and ignition. north korea continues to work on a solid fuel rocket that takes less time to prepare. years diplomacy, sanctions, and international censure have done little to slow its progress. then smaller than al jazeera. it's been nearly 2 weeks since the earthquakes. the devastated parts of south eastern turkey and northwest syria. more than 46000 people have been confirmed dead. but many more are still accounted for. turkish rescue efforts had ended in all provinces except the 2 hardest hit. got him on marsh and had tied a doctors without borders. aid convoy has now entere

mason richey is a specialist in north korea. i'd associate professor of international politics at hancock university. it says john young is likely to continue miss el tests in response to military exercises between the u. s. and south korea. this is a significant launch, but i think it's not so much significant because of the underlying technology. the was on 15, has been in some form likely deployed for a while now. and in that sense, what was interesting about the test was that north korea reports that the decision to launch this was given without warning to the launch cur is. and so this doesn't seem so much like it was a test, especially of the underlying technology as it was a drill for the launch cruise. and i think we're going to see that going forward with some of these legacy systems that already exist, in addition to testing programs for other missiles, especially on solid fuel icbm. the message i think here is that north korea is not happy with the ramping up of military exercises between the u. s. and south korea, wh
