President Trump Reviews
Intermediate-range ballistic missile was launched from near Pyongyang early Friday it flew over Japan so Kaito Island
Before dropping into the Pacific Japan immediately condemned the launch and said it can never tolerate this repeated
provocative action by North Korea
The international community has once again been forced to send a message of condemnation to Pyongyang over its missile launch, but the u.s.
Also, took the opportunity to again call on China and Russia to do more one jang-ho has this report
Once again the residents of hokkaido japan woke up to sirens warning of a North Korean missile flying overhead
Last month was a first time in five years that North Korea had launched a missile over Japan
Now it has happened twice in just over two weeks
Tokyo was quick to condemn these actions
North Korea has trampled over the strong will of a United international
Community to a peaceful solution as seen in the United Nations resolution the other day we absolutely cannot accept these provocations
in the US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson
Released a statement condemning the launch but also pointed the finger at China and Russia to do more. He said they must indicate
They're in torrance for the reckless launches by taking direct action of their own
Noting that, China supplies, North Korea with most of its oil and that Russia is the largest employer of North Korean forced labor?
Beijing has not yet responded to lessons comments
But did express their own condemnation of the missile launch a foreign ministry spokesperson said the current situation on the Korean Peninsula is
Complicated sensitive and grave and that relevant countries must remain calm and not exacerbate the situation
The spokesperson also pledged that China would completely and rigorously perrolli out the UN sanctions on the range launch comes just days
after the UN Security Council imposed some of the harshest sanctions so far
against North Korea for its nuclear tests and its refusal to stop test firing missiles
Korean shop signs lined the streets outside the North Korean embassy in the Chinese capital of Beijing where a big construction project is underway
China has long been one of Pyongyang's biggest backers, but its actions are threatening the relationship and fueling concerns among the public
Yeah, it's dangerous. This is all happening right next door a neighbor
That is so close
North Korea has been researching and developing nuclear weapons for a long time and almost all of the international community as opposed to that effort
And yet it continues to go with own way despite all that China has done to selflessly help, North Korea. She adds
Pyongyang has done little to repay Beijing and clearly has no bottom line
China's basic position on North Korea has long been one of three knows no war no nukes and no instability
But with North Korea's repeated missile and ICBM launches as well as its latest nuclear test
Beijing has had little choice
But to join the international community in taking steps that over time could trigger instability analysts say
Support for a tougher approach is growing in China even though. There is still
Skepticism about the effectiveness of sanctions or whether kim jeong-hoon really means what he says
To Fuyumi she'll always I mean I support sanctions if they don't impact the people of North Korea that much
Sanctions and the leadership should be tougher
Yoga
The best thing would be for everyone to sit down and talk, and I think China should play a mediating role
for the Tauri
Talks with North Korea have been stalled for nearly a decade
Analysts in China say that while the United States may have wanted an all-out
embargo on oil exports the 30 percent cut is still going to have a
Significant impact and could be enough to push Pyongyang to ponder whether it should reengage
They lied VOA news Beijing
Now North Korea's missile provocation was detected almost immediately by Japan and the United States just three minutes after the launch
Japan issued a nationwide jeigh alert warning notifying its citizens and
in a swiftly organized media conference Japan's chief cabinet secretary Yoshihide
suger called Pyongyang's repeated provocations
totally unacceptable and said Tokyo would protest in the strongest possible terms
Japan's foreign minister taro kono reportedly said that given the range of the missile he thinks it was an
intercontinental ballistic
Missile now. There's been no official response from Washington yet, but the White House says President Trump has been briefed on the situation
by his chief of staff John Kerry
The US Pacific Command confirmed the launch but said it posed no threat to North America or Guam
The UN Security Council will convene a meeting on Pyongyang's missile launch on Friday
afternoon local time this comes on the heels of the UN Security Council
Resolution adopted earlier this week for the regime's sixth nuclear test
Now South Korea has convened an emergency
National Security Council meeting in response to North Korea's missile launch president moon jaein
Presided over it with his top defense and security aides the meeting

But we're still awaiting details and Seoul's response to North Korea's latest provocation
This is the second time this month the fifth overall since his inauguration
The president moon has chaired a National Security Council meeting
The last time was just 12 days ago when North Korea conducted its sixth and most powerful nuclear test today's
illicit evasion and a thriving black market
Continued to mitigate the impact of sanctions
Intended to deprive North Korea of billions of dollars in revenue and needed components for its nuclear program
the latest round of United Nations sanctions imposed on North Korea this week for conducting its sixth nuclear test and the
restrictions put in place in August for repeated ballistic missile launches including
Intercontinental ballistic missile tests could potentially have a significant impact the Bank of Korea in Seoul says North Korea's gross domestic
product in
2016 was twenty eight point five billion dollars the August
Sanctions would cut that GDP by three billion dollars by banning coal iron lead and seafood export industries
the newest restrictions could cost another 800 million by banning textile exports and
Reductions in oil and gas imports and limits on worker permits would also cut off needed fuel and funds for North Korea's weapons
programs

if fully enforced I
Think that the amount of hard currency that North Korea would lose would be enough to certainly concern the leadership
Because they don't have very much hard currency
and and this would cause
significant problems for them a
Significant reduction in hard currency revenue would make it difficult for the military to purchase weapons components
And so discord between leader Kim jong-un and the elite in the country whose loyalty is bought to a degree with imported luxury goods
however if you expect these measures to be vigorously enforced as the Kim jong-un government has become adept over the years in evading sanctions and
North Korea's trading partners especially
China and Russia have been complicit in permitting illicit transactions to continue despite official support for sanctions

Anthony Rosario is a former US Treasury Department official who is now an analyst with the foundation for defense of
Democracies and he described how North Korea and Russia tried to cover up a clandestine oil deal during his congressional testimony
A u.s.
bank would not process this transaction between
Sanctioned parties to avoid this scrutiny the front front companies were created in Singapore to obscure the nature of the transaction
allowing almost 7 million dollars in payments for this transfer
According to Bruce clinger a former CIA analyst who is now a senior research fellow at the conservative Heritage
Foundation says North Korea's trading system consists of
5000 companies that are centralized in China and run by a limited number of trusted individuals
Although the shell companies can be swiftly changed the individuals responsible for establishing and managing them have remained often for years
While there are reports of Russian smugglers exporting oil and other sanctioned goods to North Korea
Ninety percent of all North Korean trade goes through China the Chinese say
They are implementing sanctions along the border
But they had not been forthcoming and issuing clear restrictions to trading companies or in reporting how required
Inspections of all goods crossing the North Korean border are being implemented
North Korea analyst David Straub and I believe that in recent months at least the North the Chinese have not even been putting
