We have a lot of Mental Health problems in our country as do other countries but this isnt a guns situation i mean we could go into it but its a little bit soon to go into it but fortunately somebody else had a gun that was shooting in the opposite direction otherwise it would have been as bad as it was it would have been much worse but this is a Mental Health problem at the highest level. Of Donald Trumps next stop on this asia tour as the south korean capital seoul on monday he wrapped up ten days of talks with japans Prime Minister the threat posed by north korea dominated discussions its got heart of a pause from tokyo. During his two days in japan theres no question that President Trump and Prime Minister they have grown close as friends trump calling the relationship extraordinary calling trump a precious friend and they have also strengthened the alliance between the two nations to a level not seen before but its not just because they like each other after a summit meeting on monday they both underlined why they think that alliance is critical standing together against north korean aggression.

Must take leadership closely collaborating with the International Community so that we can enhance pressure on north korea through all possible i mean its the era of strategic patience is over some people said that my rhetoric is very strong but look whats happened with very weak rhetoric over the last.

Lebanons Justice Minister says there will be no action on the resignation of Prime Minister. Until he returns from saudi arabia hadi met on enviable monday out announcing his resignation there two days earlier iran and its ally the Lebanese ShiiteGroup Hezbollah accuse saudi arabia of being behind the move lebanons Justice Minister says had eighty s resignation must be voluntary and they are style has the latest from they would by the political temperature across lebanon remains that boiling points after this shock resignation by the Prime Minister saad hariri on saturday there was an emergency Cabinet Meeting an Emergency SecurityCabinet Meeting at the president ial palace in a statement the president said that Lebanon Security and economy was quote a red line and that all Political Parties were in agreement that the stability of the country was a priority whatever the case an interesting statements from lebanons Justice Minister who said that no action would be taken on mr various resignation on my c. V. Seems to be both volunteer about plans to the narrative here in lebanon that many believe saddam very was forced by his backers in saudi arabia very close ties to saudi arabia that they forced him to step. Down from this job and some suggest that he may be in saudi arabia by choice but because they demand him to be there very keen to push back against that narrative mr hariri has released photos of him meeting with the saudi king weve also seen video of this on Saudi State Television then meeting but again it really does beg the question if you will return to lebanon at this stage we dont know if you will. Iraqs highest court to declare that a province can break away its in response to septembers kurdish secession referendum the Central Government in baghdad had asked a legal clarification after what it called a mis interpretation of the constitution by kurdish leaders well lets get more on this now were joined by correspondent Stephanie Deca shes live for us in the hole in Northern Iraq so what more did the Supreme Court have to say stephanie. What it was that ruling where basically they had been asked by baghdad to look into the constitutionality of secession the constitution iraqi constitution does stress the point of territorial unity well the Supreme Court has now issued their ruling their reading of the constitution saying that it does not allow for any region of iraq to secede so of course this is in response to the september referendum the controversial referendum that was held here in the kurdish region of Northern Iraq and also the disputed territories of with a massive backlash and also interestingly weve had the office of the iraqi Prime Minister. Respond to that as well putting the ball again in the court of the k r g Kurdistan Regional government saying that they need to clarify their position on that ruling of the Supreme Court basically saying to them you need to make it clear whether you are says c. They were basically saying that you should not be sitting present course we know that that is the prerequisite of baghdad to a novel the results of that referendum after say it was a nonleague. The binding referendum of course but just the message that it sent ninety three percent of three million kurds in this region voting yes to independence an independent kurdistan schools this massive backlash and certainly this is why we are at the point that we are now and what is the kurdish Regional Government saying about the Supreme Court ruling and stephanie. I havent responded to exactly that point but i think its significant that we did hear from the Prime Minister today that Trayvon Birdsall any the first time he made a public address since the president the former president now decided on november the first that is of course his uncle but he struck a real reconciliate tone in that speech urging dialogue for baghdad stressing that yes they did interpret the constitution differently but that didnt mean that dialogue wasnt the only way forward you also touch points on certain specifics that are issues between baghdad and erbil for example the budget its complicated but it has been withholding or beals section of the budget seventy percent the Prime Minister saying well if the reinstated that weve put on pause to the oil port photo this is something important and also back of his offer to pay the salaries. Of government workers here this is another issue thats been a real economic crisis here since baghdad started with holding that that budget to this region three years ago a lot of people have been having real problems being paid back is now offered to pay them theyre welcoming that here and whether that you know theres a doubt but i think the Bigger Picture without going into all those details is that there seems to be somewhat of a of a sort of atmosphere of more reconciler dialogue because of course we had military confrontations here there is a cease fire in place but i can tell you people are still nervous theres issues of disputed territories that need to be resolved theres issues of borders and baggage has made it very clear it will be taking back control of the k r g borders that the carriage administers. Very soon that thats an. And it goes for those talks is still going on but i think the message of dialogue an important one stephanie thank you very much for that Stephanie Decker joining us with all the very latest from the hope thank you.
