Page 17 - Missile Testing News Today

Just thank prime minister awe bay, because they did a fantastic job and a lot of good things came out of that, a lot of good meetings with other countries, i can tell you from the standpoint of the united states. but we decided to come here a while ago as part of going to the g20. i promised president moon. and then yesterday i was just thinking hey, im here, lets see whether or not we can say hello to kim jong-un. and i put out the word. and he got back. and he wanted to do it from the beginnin...

That to 30 or lets take that indefinitely, okay, lets also ban any missile testing on iran outside the radius of the middle east. i think youd get the europeans, the russians and the chinese to sign on to that. if we put that on the table to the iranians i think theres be a real fight inside iran whether to accept that or not. but when trump starts sanctioning the leader -- sanctioning the very people hes negotiating with, what it says to me is that he is -- hes afraid of cutting a deal that wil...

Of that with other countries from the standpoint of the united states. but we decided to come here a while ago as part of going to the g20, i promised president moon. i was thinking, im here, lets see if we can say hello to kim jong-un. and i put out the word, and he got back and he wanted to do it from the beginning and so did i. but there is a lot of good feeling. when sometimes the media will say gee whats happened? they know whats happened in was nuclear testing, there was ballistic missile ...

It is something that 24 hours ago would you not have expected to happen. before you saw that tweet from the u.s. president, it was something that did seem, that it couldnt happen. but, of course, it is an image that will be played on a loop for days to come and certainly around the world. that is an image that is there to stay. what it does symbolize apart from a remarkable, historic moment and photo opportunity is hopefully these talks are no longer stalled. we have seen very little progress be...

2017 was not that long ago. >> hmm. >> now whether you believe it was the u.s. president that brought us away from those tensions or the fiery rhetoric you saw between kim jong un and president trump was largely the reason that became so tense. but the level of nuclear missile testing in 2017 from north korea was unprecedented. never in north koreas history have we seen that. >> and their biggest test, u.s. satellite photographs indicate that their most recent test was by a factor larger than an...

Jon: so president trump is, you know, the most powerful man in the world, chairman kim runs one of the poorest countries in the world, how does it benefit the united states for kim to show up for this photo-op? >> well, i think ultimately this is an improvement of where we have been with north korea in so far as a conversation being had, although they are doing some missile testing, most of active agration were abated and the president continuing conversation and clearly putting sanctions on nor...

President has touted, north korea is no longer abiding by. for instance, north korea is no longer returning the remains of lost u.s. service members during the korean war. that has stopped, and north korea has at least begun again missile testing, short range, not intercontinental, but again this was one of the concessions the president touted as a sign of the value of these talks. so those things north korea has backed off. theres been no progress on denuclearization. and yet the president offe...

White house has said is the goal of these talks, which is the denuclearization of north korea. no steps by north korea to denuclearize. in fact its u.s. intelligence communitys assessment north korea continues its program, continues to expand its program and in fact two of the concessions north korea has made separate from its nuclear program, one, the return of the remains of u.s. service members killed during the korean war, and two, stopping its missile testing. well, those remains are no lon...

Iran is going to be escalating further and not just in the area that you mentioned which is you know pushing back an un-american a military sense in the persian gulf i think we can expect to see more of what we saw in may in countries where iranian proxies are active such as iraq in syria out expect them to do want to target u.s. forces or u.s. assets or u.s. interests in the cyber domain i would expect iran to be quite active in the missile testing world as well as well as irans nuclear program...

Testing, no major missile testing, nothing like when i first got here. when i first got here, it was a bad mess. ok everyone!
