Although the Russian ForeignMinistry Announced on tuesday that it was working behind the scenes to bring the north korean crisis to some sort of political resolution we dont know much more because theyre not releasing any further information however we have heard also on tuesday from the north Korean Embassy here in moscow that a delegation is arriving from pyongyang all of Foreign Ministry officials to have talks with their russian counterparts and that the pyongyang delegation includes the head of the north american directorate russias perspective on north korea is that its sanctions against it are running out of steam that a war on the peninsula would be catastrophic and that the language used by donald trump is essentially irresponsible it would like to see a few more carrots being used in this situation and not so many sticks and i think that it will try to use its political and economic leverage with north korea to try and diffuse the situation perhaps dangle some incentives in front of them like gas contracts already graylings or perhaps increasing the number of north koreans allowed to work in russia basically things that might help the north korean economy and try to persuade them to back away from the march to war so a convoy this half hour our young ranger children have escaped war and me and my are dealing with their traumatic experiences.
