Investigators say the scale of Sexual Violence against the world. Military shows genocide. Follow south koreas intelligence sharing pact with japan and yet another escalation of tensions between the neighbors japan has called souls this is regrettable and has summoned the south Korean Ambassador the deal was aimed at sharing information about threats posed by north korea and its missile and Nuclear Program for ministers from both countries have been meeting in beijing to try and find a solution now the 2 countries are locked in a bitter row over trade and japans wartime atrocities in the last century last month tokyo restricted exporters from supplying south Korean Companies become a necessary to make smartphones on display screens south korea is the Worlds Largest supplier of computer chips and smartphone displays tokyo has also decided to strip seoul of preferential trade status citing National Security grounds. South korea says the measures are in retaliation to Court Rulings that order Japanese Companies to compensate victims of forced labor during japans occupation of korea lets bring in rob mcbride hes joining us from seoul to kind of break all of this down for us robyn it was a bilateral dispute at seoul and in this intelligence sharing part is going to have an impact on other countries including the u. S. And north korea what kind of impact do we expect. Thats right the reason it has taken everyone by surprise here people were expecting right up until the last minute despite this deepening round south korea regret jingly would renew this pact or at the very least simply freeze it but very few people were predicting this kind of terminations we have heard south korea saying that all the blame falls on japan for what it calls a very grave change in Security Cooperation the japanese predictably perhaps have said this is very regrettable shinzo our base has just said from tokyo that this is very bad for busy the trust between the 2 countries and japan has also attacked south korea saying its unacceptable for south korea in this way to be linking security with trade but people here in south korea says well its a hangout its japan that 1st link trade with this Controversial Court decision that found in favor of victims of forced labor from the 2nd world war so it it is opened up all of these decades old and your boss cities between the 2 former adversaries and of course that makes the United States very nervous the 2 of its most important regional allies it has called for calm to prevail for them to resume a dialogue and it comes at a time of course when we see increased cooperation militarily between china and russia in this part of the world and also increased activity from those. Career and interestingly daryn really young ho the north Korean Foreign minister has chosen this moment to further stir the pot by saying that american sanctions are a miscalculation and saying that north korea is prepared for both dialogue and confrontation so all eyes on beijing rob as foreign minister is there and trying to find some sort of solution is a breakthrough possible at all it does seem unlikely given the frostiness of relations between the 2 Foreign Ministers and indeed between the 2 governments and this is having all an impact increasingly on trade and businesses here in south korea we have this Ongoing Campaign of that the no campaign is basically boycotting japanese goods cancel your holidays to japan all of that is having an impact and now we have starting just this hour here in downtown seoul this friday afternoon the yes campaign this is in support of south korean businesses Many Companies is Small Medium Enterprises that do trade with japan and are likely to feel the fallout from this telling people here in south korea support your local businesses by korea and that of course this comes at a bad time for the korean economy course as it is between the trade war of china and the United States weve seen exports falling here for 8 months consecutive consecutively and so this is coming at a very vulnerable time for south korean business 3 all right thank you the amazon rain forest in brazil is on fire and its burning at a record rates and pressure is growing on the countrys president to tackle its french president a menu and matt hall has called it an International Crisis center is accusing countries that donate money for preserving the amazon off interfering with brazils sovereignty it is ok to reports.
