President donald trump met kim jong un at koreas Demilitarized Zone nearly a month ago rob a bride is live for us in seoul so rob what more do we know about this and what can we read into the timing of it as well. Yes as it was theyre waiting to see exactly what these projectiles were but officials here in south korea say its very similar to a launch that took place in may which was the launch again from the east coast from the same location of 2 short range missiles into the sea separating the Korean Peninsula from japan flying about 400 kilometers so it could be we could be talking about short range missiles again here and interestingly that launch that took place in may was the 1st by north korea since 2017 and was seen as i think this launch to will be seen as a sign of north koreas frustration at the stalled nature of talks with the United States things are stalled at the moment as we know but north korea is also angered by the upcoming exercises that are going to be held here bet

Between donald trump and kim jong un just nearly a month ago now with the announcement that say yes things were back on track were going to have working level talks to get negotiations underway again were still waiting for those working level talks to happen my pompei o has said that they could well happen in july while july is running out and what you do get a sense that patience on the north korean side is once again running out kim jong un has given a deadline of the end of this year for some sort of resolution of the ongoing ongoing sanctions against north korea and so this does seem to be a further warning that yes these are only short range missiles were not seeing a return to the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile testing or Nuclear Testing so it still gives donald trump the chance to say that his. Signature piece of Foreign Policy is still on track but it is a warning that time is running
