for more let's go to our diplomatic editor james face at the united nations. james famines don't come out of nowhere we've been hearing dialogue similar to this for quite some time but this is extremely stark language that he is using what is going on at the u.n. . well certainly it's a very grim warning coming from the u.n. humanitarian chief which he made not only to us reporters as you heard there in the last fifteen minutes or so but before that he spoke to the u.n. security council now he's left their meeting they are still meeting as we speak and i'm sure that warning will concentrate minds everything they say at the u.n. is gauged in terms of not just its effect in terms of the humanitarian situation but also in terms of the political and diplomatic situation it's worth telling you that mr low cost spoke on monday to member states of the united nations then he was very very careful with his language and said i need to be careful because i'm addressing the security council on wednesday between now and then i need to speak to keep parties about the situat

japan is always wary of the united states reaction when talking about trump i'm a bit afraid of what lies ahead for me sales continue to fly towards us but the united states doesn't do anything so suddenly that it probably isn't wavering in who he is but i'm doubtful of whether he's really thinking about the interests of the united states all the rest of the well hawkish in dealing with north korea has kept the issue of the abduction of japanese citizens by north korea alive monday trouble visit some families of those who have been abducted over eighteen thousand police officers will be on the streets of tokyo during president trumps visit one of the largest ever security personnel mobilizations and for the very first time an all female security team has been created from milan and of ankara trump. as a candidate and as president trump has slammed unfair trade deals with asian nations but it's not expected he will talk much about this in japan the focus is expected to remain on how the two allies will deal with north korea it's got other al-jazeera. i haven't resnick is a u.s. foreig

impose the embargo and the blockade on qatar and take those units of measure against her house for the past five almost six months try to essentially refute those claims but why this is a turning point is what this is showing now in terms of the international community particularly that this is taking place in such an important city like london is that but that is no longer just defending itself but actually taking an active proactive role in actually countering terrorism in terms of setting the narrative in terms of leading the discussion so for a conference like this to take place in london with such high profile individuals including the undersecretary of state for the world over the years as a foreign secretary of the you take your responsible for the mena region how does the problem that is something significant so that messages both directed towards the. anti terrorism or the counterterrorism circles where they discuss new ways of combating i sill or isis and other groups but also at the united arab emirates and saudi arabia telling them or your attempt to convince the world that

well i mean it's precisely what the united states and russia or the united states and the soviet union did in pastimes you know you would wish people here in the gulf region would do the same meaning you might disagree on something but yes that would be civil enough the communication to reconcile and to try to find common ground to continue to trade the normalize relations instead of abruptly cutting relations inside them and eyes and one another i think these are positive steps that heads of state talk to one another and are able to resolve issues if they could in hot spots like syria and other places. so we appreciate it . thank you and that is it for me and then he. will be here in a couple of minutes time with much more of the day's news for you in the meantime thanks for watching. track. by trying to use it for us. scott. closer. together with ways. oh is it allison when they're on line we were in hurricane winds full almost like thirty six hours these are the things that has to address or if you join us on sat . but we struck up a relationship this is a dialogue tweet us with has
