by mail@democracynow.org (Democracy Now!) from Democracy Now! on (#36G5R)
Tensions continue to mount between the United States and North Korea, after U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis's week-long visit to Asia and ahead of Trump's 12-day visit later this week. Mattis emphasized a diplomatic resolution to the standoff between the two countries, but warned that the U.S. would not accept a nuclear North Korea. Congressional Democrats are pushing legislation that would prevent President Trump from launching a preemptive strike against North Korea. We speak with Christine Ahn, founder and executive director of Women Cross DMZ, a global movement of women mobilizing to end the Korean War.
