And to tell us more about North Korea's latest missile launches and what we can make of all this... Dr. Kim Hyun-wook, Professor at the Korea National Diplomatic Academy joins us on the phone today.
Hello Dr. Kim.
Hello Ji-yoon.
1- So North Korea launched two missiles eastward on Thursday... and like we said, this was the regime's second weapons launch in five days.
What can we make of it?
2- How might this effect the food aid that are to be sent to the North?
Because earlier this week... U.S. President Donald Trump.... during his phone call with President Moon Jae-in... said he supported South Korea's humanitarian aid for the North to help alleviate its food shortages.
3- The U.S. meanwhile seized a North Korean cargo ship, alleging sanctions violations by the country. This seizure is likely to further heighten tensions between the two countries.
Tell us more about this and could we see toughened sanctions on the North from here on out?
