11:36Now PlayingWe continue our look at North Korea where tensions continue to mount with the United States, and President Trump is slated to leave later this week for a 12day visit to Asia. A month ago Donald Trump publicly undermined efforts by the U.S. to open direct talks with North Korea over the country’s nuclear weapons program. A day after Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said that the U.S. has two or three back channels open to North Korea’s leadership and that he was pursuing dialogue, Trump responded to the news tweeting, QUOTE, “I told Rex Tillerson, our wonderful Secretary of State, that he is wasting his time trying to negotiate with Little Rocket Man… Save your energy Rex, we’ll do what has to be done!” Trump has previously threatened to unleash “fire and fury” on North Korea and told the U.N. General Assembly he was prepared to destroy the entire nation of 25 million people. We are joined by Christine Ahn, the founder and Executive Director of Women Cross DMZ, a global movement of women mobilizing to end the Korean War.
