leakage in that, lots of companies, financial firms around the world are violating that, doing business with north korea. so we re sending a very simple signal. if you want to do business in north korea, you re not going to get access to the u.s. financial markets. that was very helpful at getting the iranians to the table. that secondary sanctions legislation says makes it so that the united states is leveraging its own market access to make sure that people comply around the worrell. and i should say, you know, north korea did cross a very significant threshold. they continue to develop nuclear weapons. and of course recently they tested an icbm that most people believe can reach alaska and on that trajectory, they will have one in a matter of years that could also hit the mainland united states. so we need to ratchet up that economic pressure on north korea. so, yes, talks, okay, but they re only going to be
anytime we are responding to a structure fire, one of the first calls you make is for pg&e for gas and electric safety. it s my job to make sure that they have the training that they need to make the scene safe for themselves and for the public. it s hands-on training actually turning valves, turning systems off, looking at different wire systems all that training is crucial to keeping our community safe and our firefighters safe. together, we re building a better california. welcome back. i m stephanie ruhle. time for your morning primer, everything you need to get your day started. we begin in germany where within one hour president trump will sit down with russian president vladimir putin at the g-20 summit. the two worrell leaders met and shook hands for the first time earlier this morning. house majority whip steve scalise remains in the icu in serious condition this morning after undergoing surgery thursday to treat an infection.
