The United States is calling on all countries to cut their diplomatic and trade ties with north korea in response to its latest test of an intercontinental Ballistic Missile. The Us Ambassador, nikki haley, made the request at an emergency meeting of the Un Security Council in new york. Sarah corker has more. Another missile test, the 23rd this year. A sign that warnings, threats and pressure from the us appear to have little impact on kim jong un and his nuclear ambitions. At an emergency Un Security Council meeting, the us once again stepped up meeting, the us once again stepped up the rhetoric. We have never sought war with north korea and is still today, we do not seek it. If war does come, it will be because of continued acts of aggression like we witnessed yesterday. And if war comes, make no mistake, the north korean regime will be utterly destroyed. The intech and then to Ballistic Missile flew higher than any other previously tested. Intercontinental. Experts say that means north korea has the ability to hit the us although it is not clear whether it can carry a nuclear weapon. This is how north koreans received news of the latest test. A familiar announcement from a familiar announcement from a familiar voice. Meanwhile, President Trump in his words said he would handle the situation and again, mocked the north korean leader. He isa mocked the north korean leader. He is a sick puppy. And he is putting pressure on beijing. The us wants china as north koreas ally, to cut off trade including oil supplies to pyongyang. Something it has so far resisted. Again, china called for a peaceful resolution. Translation we strongly urge them to comply with un security resolutions and these actions that escalate tensions on the korean peninsula. Yet tougher sanctions, further talks and urging china to use its influence has so far failed china to use its influence has so farfailed to deter china to use its influence has so far failed to deter north koreas unpredictable leader. Sarah corker, bbc news. Lets brief you on some of the other stories making the news.

An International Court in the hague is investigating the apparent suicide of a former Bosnian Croat general, during a hearing on wednesday. Slobodan praljak died after drinking what he said was poison, this after a judge upheld his 20 year sentence for war crimes. This has been a huge story in croatia and across the wider balkans lets get the latest from our correspondent, guy de launey in the croatian capital, zagreb. It was absolutely extraordinary, what happened yesterday. I understand the dutch authorities have now initiated an independent enquiries. Thats right. And immediately in fact the courtroom was declared a crime scene. We have had inmates kill themselves at the Detention Centre in the hague before that we have never had anything like we saw in the courtroom yesterday when Slobodan Praljak drank from a bottle or some kind of container and his lawyer announced he had drunk poison. Thejudge looked extremely confused and quickly said, lets bring down the curtains and suspend the hearing. That was dramatic enough. Of course, we know what followed, Slobodan Praljak was taken away and eventually died. The response in croatia has also been extremely interesting, to say the least. The Prime Minister, notjust extending his condolences to Slobodan Praljaks family but also saying a great injustice had been committed against him and the other five defendants in the dock in the hague and that he shouldnt have been there for war crimes at all. This really speaks to the heart of the that countries around this region have been accepting the verdict of the hague tribunal. It was a very serious verdict of the hague tribunal. It was a very serious case, one verdict of the hague tribunal. It was a very serious case, one which actually drew the croatian state into responsibility for so called ethnic cleansing in bosnia in the 19905 ethnic cleansing in bosnia in the 1990s and trying to cut away part of bosnia and creating what they called a greater croatia. This is something that people in croatia today simply wont accept. They are saying that these people, in effect, were not just on trial as individuals but thats the whole state of croatia was on trial. This is something we have seen happen perhaps that if people see that if one Ethnic Service is an trial than serbia itself is on trial. In this case, it was made explicit that the former president was named in the joint criminal enterprise for which these six men were convicted. Now we are waiting to see what the response will be today in parliament. They have been suggestions there will be a minutes silence for Slobodan Praljak. It has also been suggested that opposition parties including one led by the former foreign minister had played no part of this and this would expose the risk lifts with those within croatia with those who want to move forward and accept the verdict and those who might want to hark back to the 19905. Lets turn to our top business story today all attention is on the austrian capital vienna where in the next few hours the future direction of oil prices could be decided. Ministers from the Oil Exporters cartel opec are meeting along with non member russia. Top of the agenda whether to extend cuts in the supply of oil that have helped push prices to their highest in two years. Its exactly a year since opec and russia first struck a deal to cut production. Brent crude has soared from 45 dollars a barrel in the summer to over 63 now. That deal is due to expire at the end of march. Joseph sternberg editorial page editor, at the wall streetjournal joins me now. Good morning. It is true to say, everybodys attention in terms of the commodities market, the oil market, is on what it will happen today in vienna. What is the expectation . We will see the outcome of the meeting because attention been between producers who are anxious to try to sustain high oil prices, particularly saudi arabia the sustained price being very helpful to their economy as they tried to make various political transitions. Versus other producers like russia which are hoping for a stability in pricing. This is pointing to a growing problem that opec will have moving forward. As they try to balance all of these diverging interests within the Petroleum Suppliers universe. Especially as the enemy Energy Markets become more complex. Other sources coming online.

They are not thinking about the consequences of brexit. The consequences for people who have become used and have mortgages and people in is in college, based upon a livelihood which appreciates the fact that you can move across. The biggest obstacle can move across. The biggest o bsta cle to can move across. The biggest obstacle to ensuring there are no obstacles will stop on the mini border bridges and roads are to do with customs. The eu says it Northern Ireland was to stick to the same economic rules, the issue would be sold. B Prime Minister has been very clear in saying that as we leave the European Union we leave the Single Market is and we leave the Single Market is and we leave the Customs Union the Prime Minister.
