Victory claimed in the other party. They call it ridiculous. Polands former president tells the country, dont let anyone take away your rights.

Hiking up germanys credentials as a holiday destination from the beaches to the alps. Why germany is expecting a tourism boom this summer. I am sarah kelly, thank you for joining us. And a new threat from donald trump in the escalating war of words with north korea. He was responding after pyongyang vowed to fire missiles towards guam and called trump senile. He had his own words for the regime. Listen in. Donald trump north korea does terms of talking about attack, of anybody that we love or we represent or our allies or us, they can be very nervous. I will tell you why, and they should be, because things will happen to them like they never thought possible. The people of our country are safe. Our allies are safe, and i will to you this. North korea better yet their act together or they will be get their act together a few nations have ever been get their act together or they will be in trouble like few nations have ever been. Sarah we have a guest from the north Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins. He joins us from salt lake city. Thank you for being here. We heard donald trump saying north korea should be nervous. Are these helping or hurting . Michael they play into north korea and north koreas strategic mindset. They can point to this as being belligerent rhetoric coming from the United States. It does raise tensions, but there is nothing other than a love commentary and statements. A lot of commentary and statements. The testing announcement, there is nothing tangible other than rhetoric. Sarah lets dig down into what is tangible, because the president met with his top security officials. What options are on the table for the United States side . Michael the United States now has sanctions, legislation passed last week. The United States can conduct very surgical and tough sanctions on north korea, financial institutions, a power they did not have before. There is diplomacy, diplomacy they can undertake, and there are military options, but right now there is no proof whatsoever the United States is undertaking any policy indicating military action or preemptive lee terry action. There are things we could see we have not seen. Sarah what would we see . Are you concerned this could be a real war . We might not see those options educated executed on the u. S. Side, but what about north korea . Michael there are another eyes on north korea in terms of satellite data, geointelligence that we could see if they were going to do something. One of the developments in north korea is the Missile Program in the last few years and the use of global missiles. They are more to detect, but we have more difficult to detect, but we havent eyes. Have enough eyes. We could see Service Deployments from the u. S. This would not be kept as a secret. This is something we would see through open channels. Sarah what do you make of the north korean announcement they plan to hit around long around guam . They mentioned four rockets they would send that way. Does it sound feasible . Michael it is a technology they have tested at the theoretical level, but it is something they have in their capabilities. Maybe they would use it as an excuse to see if the missiles will reach. North korea has been through different Media Outlets and different organizations, threatening to launch missiles at guam since 2001. We need to realize the statements the last couple of days on north koreas Strategic Rocket forces is an evolution of these things that existed in north koreas ideological indoctrination media going back to 2001. North korea has this capability theoretically. One thing i will note is that the chick rocket force commands the Strategic Rocket forces them and, there is no what they need to they need final authorization from kim jongun, and we have not seen public activity involving kim jongun where he is giving final authorization implicitly or explicitly. Sarah it seems like the message is everyone take a breath, the military option probably not on the table. Thank you for your analysis. Michael madden, director of north korea leadership watch at Johns Hopkins school of advanced international studies. Michael thank you. Sarah lets get a quick check on other stories making news. Turkish authorities have detained a Russian National and suspected i. S. Ellerton are planning a trip militant for planning a drone attack on the airbase. The u. S.

His supporters clashed with police in a suburb of nairobi following the claims. As they wait for the final results, there are fears of the clashes that killed over 1200 people after the contested 2007 election. President kenyatta appeared to be in the lead when a wide margin, but the winner will not be declared until tomorrow. Earlier i spoke with our correspondent who is based in nairobi. I asked how the authorities are responding to the oppositions claims. Reporter basically they are dismissing everything the opposition is saying. They are poking holes in their numbers, saying they had totally different numbers compared to what the commission had. This is numbers of registered voters in various areas, and the total number. They are saying there is no way the opposition can have this kind of information when verification is still taking place. They said they had almost all forms needed. It is about 500 get to arrive at the National Tally center, and it will hopefully be done by tomorrow. They said it is impossible for them to make an announcement that raila odinga is the new president of the state. They are rubbishing everything the main opposition is saying. Sarah so what evidence is the opposition saying to support their claim that odinga won won the election . Michael reporter they have been accused of relying on the emotions of their supporters, but when you ask the leaders what evidence, where they getting this, they cannot tell us or where it is from. They will not leak their sources. The evidence they are presenting does not match with the tally at the national center, considering the number of registered voters, it brings the question of their agenda. A lot of people are saying that. But what is being said is they should give the evidence they have. They should release their sources or reveal their sources to be trusted. Sarah what is the timetable to receive the actual result . How are the residents reacting . Are they staying indoors, fearing a repeat of the 2007 carnage . Reporter according to the law in kenya, once the vote has been cast and polling stations are closed by 5 00 p. M. , they have seven days to make the announcement for the new president. They make announcements for the local governors and members of parliament, but the president ial announcement can take seven days. That is what we are waiting for. The Electoral Commission has until monday to make this announcement. Considering how kenyans are tired of the constant rhetoric from both sides, they want this to be made tomorrow. In the meantime they are scared to come out. There are people coming out and going around in nairobi, but the streets are practically empty. If you happen to nairobi, it is a sea of people because the residence are about 7 million, but now it is about super empty. They are going to social media app, go back to work, show us pictures of you going to work, because people want life to go back to normal. Sarah catherine with the latest from nairobi, kenya.

Reporter it appears the euro is back in fashion, making it expensive after a drawnout slump. The euro is running at a twoyear high against the u. S. Currency. It is waning because of trumps events. Investors are migrating to the euro once again. Lets go over to the financial correspondent on wall street now. Is that euro strong, or is the greenback simply weaker at the moment . Reporter it is really fascinating to see how many experts at the beginning of the year were certain the euro will drop in comparison to the dollar, and it has not. It is a mixture. Political turmoil, it is not necessarily amounting to make a strong case for the u. S. Dollar, but we have seen the european economy actually gained quite some traction and euro strength. The dollar appears to be weaker. And then it is less likely we get strong action from the federal reserve, so we are talking at most maybe one more rate increase this year. That also takes some air out of the greenback at this point. Reporter wall street slipping down over 100 points. What is behind that . Jens we saw quite some pressure , and again all the words from the u. S. President donald trump are not helping at this point. Early this week he came out with the fire and fury statement. Now he said probably he was not even tough enough. He could increase the pressure. That put wall street down 2 , the dow jones the weakest section since may, so it seems like by now pressure is increasing for wall street, not just a few days but longer. Reporter thank you.
