China would love the type of agreement, pushing for the type of agreement that takes away the issue from north korea but then on top of that also make sure the us presence in the region is reduced.

What are your thoughts about the day in general and signing this joint document . A great day, trump and kim have really clicked, the joint document, people want to see more details but the substance is there. North korea has reaffirmed they will denuclearize. It took four years, denuclearization means eventually we have to see some spent uranium fuel rods, north Korean Nuclear scientists and missile engineers getting different jobs but we are on track to do that. Pompeo and probably Kim Jong Chol will talk about the next steps. Earlier we were reading from this document that was from april , 2018, that was signed. They were reaffirming some of the things talking about north and south korea agreeing to peaceful relations and talking about the United States and the prk commit to recovering pows including immediate repatriation of those already identified. Absolutely huge and every word is important. Commit to recovering remains. We may see teams go in on the grounds of the north korean war pows. A lot of terrain to look for. And wrapping up and Human Rights Violations and that would not be broached in the specific conversation, that would come further down the line. Trump has been quite consistent for a few weeks. We expect to see this later on. There will be a lot of other details. Im looking to see the north korea south korea military talks, they will come to those. That will be happening before long, that is a significant next step. I mentioned that earlier when i was reading from the document on april 27th talking about alleviating the military tension and practically eliminating the danger of war on the korean have troops stationed in soutrea. We do those military drills annually but what would this mean for all of that . You dont know yet. 28,000 us forces stationed in south korea. All the Fighter Pilots just took a deep breath. We are talking denuclearization but we must also over time decrease military tensions. Kim jong un retains a very large army, lots of artillery, stunning cyberweapons, the longterm posture of security is something that has to be worked out. We have to get that under control. What a remarkable day. Much more after the break. Thank you for joining us, we appreciate it, lots to talk about. We will be right back. You do too, but not in time. Hey, no big deal. Youve got a good record and Liberty Mutual wont hold a grudge by raising your rates over one mistake. You hear that, karen . Liberty mutual doesnt hold grudges. How mature of them.

You are watching an early hour of fox and friends first on the east coast, half past the top of the hour but that is a live shot from singapore where a historic meeting hasaken place. No sitting president has ever met or spoken on the phone with a north Korean Leader until now. Donald trump has not only met with kim jong un but they have signed a joint document agreeing to complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. We are back with that fox news alert, north korea agreed to that following a highstakes summit with donald trump. Nikki haley being praised for her role. A lot of people involved in this behindthescenes before him leading up to yesterday bringing the rogue regime to the negotiating table. Todd pyro with a closer look at how we got here. Lots of people working on it. Reporter haley played a key role in achieving what we just saw. Specifically all 15 members of the Un Security Council including china and russia to deliver crippling sanctions the left north korea with little choice but to negotiate. Three resolutions passed unanimously by the security counsel that cut off 90 of trade, disband their labor force, they say sanctions dont work, this is an example of where they do work. Following north koreas testimony to continental Ballistic Missile they said could reach the us those resolutions nikki haley mentioned caused unprecedented economic hurt on the north koreans and the Obama Administration got china and russia to agree to new sanctions in 2016, it was Ambassador Haley who refused to, quote, accept the structuralist position of her recalcitrant russian and chineseounterparts according to her former spokesperson and made it clear the us was prepared to end the north korean threat on its own which forced aging and moscow to finally act. According to senior white house officials in a statement of fox news Ambassador Haleys diplomacy behindthescenes, in particular with the Chinese Ambassador here and the Russian Ambassador made it very clear we were not kidding around. We were literally just one more provocation away from some kind of military action that would bring great harm to the entire region and the threat we perceived was no longer theoretical by any means. Thereafter, Mike Pompeo Mike pompeo had his meeting with kim jong un followed by another meeting to set up the summit and secure the release of those hostages and despite donald trump canceling the talks a few weeks ago they were back on a few days later and here we are. It has happened very quickly when you talk about when all of this began and little rocket man and all that began and a lot of people very concerned about Donald Trumps rhetoric but now we have this agreement. Years of fits and starts in today start. We were looking to see details of what the United States is promising and the details of that not included in this joint agreement. All it says is donald trump committed to provide security guarantees to the d prk. We will find out more in the next couple hours. Laying the framework to denuclearize north korea. Should we be optimistic . Kim jong un will follow through . We will debate. Live Team
