Reporter in a statement, president obama says the u. S. And allies will, quote, vigorously implement existing measures imposed in previous resolutions and to take additional significant steps, including new sanctions to demonstrate to north korea that there are consequences to its unlawful and dangerous actions. President obama this week has already called for additional sanctions against north korea. That was because of a by Ballistic Missile test on monday. What about the International Punishment that north korea is already facing. That have yet to dissuade them. There are International Sanctions passed by the United States and our allies, the u. N. Security council. They designed to cut off know, no, from the Global Financial system and keep leaders from getting financing and other good. The u. N. Security council has a measure that allows nations to board ships for any cargo ship headed to or from north korea. But there are concerns about loopholes and enforcement. Thats why the u. S. Will continue talks with its allies to toughen that up and find a way to stop this behavior. Rich ed son on the urgent situation at the white house. Hillary clinton meeting now with more than a Dozen National security leaders. Former high ranking officials from the obama and bush administrations. This is bipartisan. The session is happening 30 blocks north of our new york headquarters. Before they kicked the cameras out sect clinton hope it would be a robust discussion and she wanted to do more listening than talking. Notable names at the meet, the former cia director, David Petraeus, his name has come up as a possible president ial. Nomination. And he is part of the iraq war troop surge. Put he fell out of favor when he pleaded guilty to leaking notebooks full of classified information to his girlfriend. On hand the former Homeland Security second mikal chertoff who served measure president george w. Bush. Means other are associated with military escalation overseas. Both clinton and trump have been hammering at each other over Foreign Policy. Yesterday clinton criticized trump for calling russian president Vladimir Putin far more of a leader than president obama. She said it was unpatriotic and dangerous. Trump then went after Hillary Clinton over her time as secretary of state, calling her an unstable and trigger happy person. Jennifer griffin is life at New York Historical society where the meeting is taking place. Any word from clinton aides what theyre expecting out of the meeting . Reporter well, right now were waiting she will give what looks like a formal press conference after the meeting the chairs are set up and theres a podium where shell speak in an hour. Were hearing from aides that this meeting was preplanned. It was planned before the north korea test. Its fifth test, second this year. In the nuclear test. They clearly will be discussing that among other Homeland Security issues. But what is interesting and notable about this group of 16 former National Security advisers is how many republicans and those who served republican administrations in the past are included in the group. You mentioned michael chertoff, who served as the second Homeland Security chief for george w. Bush but there was also also others including mike vickers, whose story was told in charlie will sons war. The cia analyst who oversaw the provision of stinger missile to the afghanistan under Ronald Reagan and a key player in the bin laden raid. Spoke to him and former cia director as they arrived for the meeting there was general David Petraeus and then there is afternoon napolitano who served as the head of dhs. Napolitano, general john allen and also general petraeus will be by video conference, were told. The rest of the group is meeting in the room right now. I mentioned some of these officials have pushed for military escalation overseas thats no secret. Reporter well, many of them have been involved in the wars since 9 11. If you look at general john allen served as the Top Commander of both afghanistan and then was the liaison from the state depth to the fight against isis and has been very involved in the iraq war in the middle east. You have a notable member of general stan mcchrystals former team, the aide decamp to general mcchrystal when he has the head of joint operations command, the special operators who have been so involved in both wars since 9 11. He is involve. There also matt olson, counterterrorism official under the obama administration. He made headlines recently by going back and looking at isis social media posts in which he said that isis is rooting for donald trump to be elected based on they were social media postings. So a number of people with a number of National Security officials with a large amount of experience in the counterterrorism fight in this particular counterterrorism fight against al qaeda and isis. What is not clear from the names i see on this list, there are not many with experience on north korea per se, and that certainly is an issue that secretary clinton will be addressing. I understand that her campaign has just released a statement calling the actions of north korea outrageous, and defending the president s handling of the situation, and backing any future actions taken against north korea but so far all weve heard are plans for more sanctions against north korea and they have not worked at stopping north Koreas Nuclear program, which has been burgeoning since before secretary clinton was secretary of state. Thank you. Let bring in Chris Wallace from fox news sunday. Sanctions aside, what can the world do about this man . Their any suggestions out there . It seems to be in the hands of china largely. I was going to say, theres one, and that has been tried and that has also failed to a certain degree. North korea is a proxy state, very dependent on china, which provides it with a lot of money and food and other basic essentials. China has some leverage on north korea. The rest of the world doesnt. And so far china has not been willing to get tough with north korea because of the fear that if they did get tough, if they tried to tighten the screwed you get a flood of North Koreans into china, the last thing that the leaders in beijing want. Is the larger concern that north korea would do something stupid or that it would sell wares . It is the number one exportable product, the number one cash cow. Well so far, they really havent done either. There has been fear this has been going on under obama and bush and even clinton. The first president clinton. This has been going on for more than a decade now, and people have tried to stop it with sanctions, with diplomacy, with threats, with car rots and sticks and theres fear that north korea would do something reckless but were they to take action against south korea that would be obliterated. They could sell nuclear equipment, infrastructure, to terrorists, but so far they havent at a very minor level. There arent any terrorists that seem to have a Nuclear Capability but the threat remains. On the political side of things, the headline on the app for the Washington Post right now, trump attacks u. S. Foreign policy on russianowned television help went to putin to complain about our government, and in what world is this okay . Well, its very curious. To give the side of the argument that trump camp is making, they said trump was doing a favor for larry king, an old friend, and agreed to do an interview he thought would be on his podcast, but as a lot of us know, larry king also does a regular hourly show on rt, which is russian television, which is controlled by the regime in moscow. And as you say this interview ended up there and you have the very curious, at the very least, if not offensive situation of a president ial nominee, an american president ial nominee, criticizing an american president and criticizing the American Press corps on russian television. It is unusual. It certainly is that. Chris wallace, nice to see you. Well look for you on fox news sunday. There will be football this sunday but before theres football there will we Chris Wallace. Football is back. Something good. Chris will talk with the Homeland Security jeh johnson as the nation marks 15 years since the attacks of 9 11, and former House Speaker newt gingrich, a trump supporter, and a former congressman we, a Hillary Clinton supporter so fair and balanced. Thats this sunday on fox news sunday. Check your local listings because after chris there is football, clung the new york football. Giants and the dallas cowboys. Were expecting donald trump to peek to a group of conservative values voters in d. C. Conservative valuing donald trump, conservative values. 15 years after the attack of 9 11 Congress Passing a bill to allow victims to sue saudi arabia the white house is threatening a possible veto. President obama says suing the saudis could backfire and hurt our countries in the end. Was a ready to mark 15 years since the attacks of 9 11 the stage is set for a showdown over a bill to let 9 11 family victims sue saudi arabias government. The house passed the bill today but the white house says the president may in fact veto it. The Senate Passed the same bill in may. The white house says the president is concerned the measure would open up americans to legal risk overseas and potentially damage ties with saudi arabia. Cant have that. Saudi officials long denied any involvement with the attacks of 9 11. Doug mckelway on capitol hill. Lawmakers did this by a voice vote. Why no record . Why no, youre with us or against us vote from our Congress Today . Reporter thats right. It wasnt just the house that did this by voice vote. When the Senate Passed the same legislation last year that did it by unanimous concept, mope nothing opposition, bottom line here no member of Congress Wants to go on record as seeming insensitive to 9 11 families there were many 9 11 families in he house gallery today as the legislation was debated and passed. Theyre overwhelmed by the support for this final piece of antiterrorism legislation, and we are thankful that congressmen have the wisdom in passing this bill. Reporter opponents of the bill are fearful it sets a terrible precedent by creating a huge loophole in sovereign immune which protects diplomat. Last april when president obama did an speaker rue with charlie rose he expressed this fear, and im quoting. If we open the possibility that individuals in the United States can routinely start suing other governments were also opening up the United States to being continually sued by individuals in other countries. Now, supporters of the legislation say the bill was narrowly tailored to avoid that. For that reason is it narrowly focused and applies only to attacks committed on u. S. Soil that harm u. S. Nationals. Reporter the white house has not yet commented on the vote but when the Senate Passed similar legislation, they hit it very strong hint vet strongly at a veto. Givens the concern we have been expressed about the president signing the legislation. No White House Briefing today so perhaps theyre weighing their options but supporters believe they do have a vetoproof majority. Any reaction from the saudis . No reaction at all today from the saudis and thats not a typical they probably see this as a domestic u. S. Issue that they would be best served by steering clear of, but theyre clearly very, very frustrated and angry at this vote. Theyve expressed that kind of sent independent the past. They see themselves as partners and recently passed laws in the country which forbid donations to charities unless the charities have been strongly vet for ties to terrorism. They see themselves as having a strong data and Intelligence Network sharing with the United States that that overturned plots you. Weigh that against u. S. Citizens skepticism that 15 of the 9 11 hijackers were saudi citizens. Thank you, doug.
