This is deja vu news coming to you live from berlin President Donald Trump visits south korea the second stop on his asian tour trump says the u. S. And its allies are making Good Progress in dealing with north Koreas Nuclear threat is looking to present a united front was sold against pyongyang also coming up this glacier in alaska has raised the alarm over Climate Change experts and activists meeting in germany for the u. N. Climate summit hope to halt its rapid melt rates but there are some who dont want them to succeed. And no end in sight more than ten thousand killed as the conflict in Eastern Ukraine simmers on three years after russia annexed crimea is there any hope for a political solution. Hello and welcome im terry martin good to have you with us u. S. President donald trump is in south korea the second stop of his First Official tour of asia the visit is being seen as an attempt to present a united front against north korea but south korea has offered a lukewarm response to trumps ideas of how to rein in pyongyang missile and nuclear threat. Lunch with the troops President Trump arrived in south korea today going first to a u. S. Base near seoul to visit u. S. And south korean soldiers these are the men and women who would be carrying out orders in any potential conflict with north korea. South koreas president moon hopes it doesnt come to that he received donald trump and first lady malani a trump at the president ial palace in seoul. The Korean People welcome you as one and we have great expectations. The welcome may not be as unanimous as president moon suggests protestors line troops route to meet moon shouting no war and no trump the south korean capital is just fifty kilometers from the border with north korea were cardless of north koreas actual Nuclear Capability seoul is an easy range of conventional weapons. And north korea could face American Armed forces although trump said it would not be his first choice as we Work Together to resolve this problem using. Short of military action the United States stands prepared to defend itself and its allies using the full range of our unmatched military capabilities if need be trump leave south korea tomorrow for china where north korea will remain high on the agenda. Is following tribes visit and joins us now from boston the u. S. President there said in his visit to south korea that he will be working with south korea and using all available to tools short of military action is. Taking a softer line with respect to north korea. Well terry he definitely sounded very different than he did just a few months ago if you look back and if you remember that was bellicose remarks of. Fury fire and fury and locked and loaded and those remarks actually made the south koreas president moved somewhat angry at the time saying that it cant be that some third party pushes his country closer to a military confrontation with north korea and he said that there shouldnt be any military action taken or considered without the consent of north korea and so today we didnt hear any of that harsh rhetoric from from donald trump now i wouldnt say its a policy reversal they still agreed that they want to exert maximum pressure on north korea and thats something that president from had been pushing for the entire time but it seems that at least they were a bit more considerate of each others needs and positions terry ok with donald trump now taking the easy phone the lead the way the World Leaders tell me that washington and seoul fall on the same page in dealing with the north. But i think at least they took some steps to find towards each other to find Common Ground it was president moon who said that they would be enhancing military cooperation for example and he it was also him was said how important it was to maximize pressure on north korea and as i said thats of course something that President Trump wanted so i think overall they tried to display a unity in their positions and i think thats exactly what President Trump had been looking for starting this whole asia trip that he wanted to align the u. S. Is key allies namely japan and south korea with u. S. Policies on north korea and tonight it looks like that hes achieved that terry. To ordinary people in south korea think of donald trump. Well people here have very mixed feeling when it comes to this we heard before there were protesters against trump with signs reading no trump no war but thats only half of the picture because there were also protesters here. Rallying for trump and welcoming trump so there are people who are saying we need to be tough on north korea and trump is exactly the right person for that and on the other hand there are people who who are saying that this kind of rhetoric is just making the situation more tense and more dangerous for south korea terry. Heartache there in Seoul South Korea thank you. Delegates from more than one hundred ninety countries have gathered in the german city of boston for the u. N. Climate summit theyre looking at how to move ahead with the paris accord on Climate Change in that debate alaskas ice fields have become come into focus Scientists Say there are milton rapidly in that thats evidence of the effects of Global Warming but pushback from local Business Leaders have shown the stark divide between environmental activists and climate skeptics. Alaskas Juneau Ice Field spans nearly four thousand square kilometers of glacial wilderness. Its alan gordons favorite place on earth. He heads here whenever he can. Spectacular views await those who scale to the top but the ice is vanishing over time. And when i first came out here a long time ago. The isis price a couple hundred feet higher and it was just flat across i could ski to or crossed out here. To get here but now i have to ice climb to get out here and its completely changed. Allen says each trip is different because of how rapidly the ice cover is changing. Scientist aaron hood is also watching the changes the two encounter each other often and talk about the weather pathways and whats happening to the ice. Aarons measurements indicate the height of the ice is dropping by about ten meters per year meanwhile the white house is reducing funding for Climate Research aaron blames us President Trump for making his research more difficult and for sowing doubt among americans about the existence of Climate Change theyre convinced that donald trump can come in and cut back on regulations cut back on Climate Change research and thats going to somehow stimulate the economy and you know thats very convincing to people that are you know need jobs and need to support their families but the facts speak for themselves the Mendenhall Glacier alone receded by five hundred fifty meters from two thousand and seven to two thousand and fifteen there appears to be a lack of political will to reverse the trend. Elsewhere in alaska people are banking on a new oil and gas boom under president obama offshore drilling was outlawed in large areas of the arctic thats now changing under a trump. Republican Reid Treadwell was a politician in alaska today he advises Big Companies he sees a golden age ahead for the state President Trump has kept his promises to alaska to reverse obamas policy on energy to push exports to push infrastructure to push National Security to reduce regulation were seeing all those things happen. Me treadwell wants to convince us of the advantages of Climate Change and advice as to his home for him the melting of the ice in the arctic ocean is a good thing. The major advantage is that the arctic ocean is certainly accessible for big tourist ships we will see the crystal serenity come around through the Northwest Passage again china is already begin to ship container ships across here russia which only had a European Market for its siberian natural gas now can ship it to asia he says hed like to see the whole environmental debate settle down. That way of thinking puzzles alan gordon he wants to see fewer people and politicians turn a blind eye to the environment.
