hieveryone Ii'm Carl Azuz new developments
between old rivals headlined today's
edition of CNN 10
those rivals are north korea and the
united states they fought on opposite
sides of the korean war in the early
1950s
and though that fighting stopped in 1953
the u.s has remained an ally of south
korea
and an enemy of north korea usually when
the u.s has a new president like it does
nownorth korea tries to test the american
administration
it might launch a new missile into the
sea it might announce new developments
in its
nuclear weapons program the communist
asian country sees that program as its
right
the u.s and several other members of the
united nations see that program as
illegal
they put sanctions penalties on north
korea's economy
to pressure it to give up its nuclear
program american presidential
administrations have also spoken out
against north korea
they've tried to further isolate the
communist country they've tried direct
diplomacy with it
but so far nothing has stopped north
korea's nuclear
program and now new satellite images
show the country has been making moves
around a facility
that america believes is used to store
nuclear weapons
experts say it looks like a new building
has appeared at the facility
right at the spot where two underground
tunnels lead to it
researchers believe north korea might be
trying to hide its growing stockpile of
weapons
so how does this impact the u.s
government it hasn't announced its
policy on north korea yet
sources say the biden administration
will do that when it's finished a review
on what's going on with the communist
country
but like his predecessors president joe
biden ultimately wants north korea to
give up its nuclear program
he says that program is a serious threat
to international peace
and critics say if the president doesn't
announce his policy and strategy soon
north korea could start taking actions
that make the situation more complicated
and disarmament less likely so there's
some pressure on the us government to
address north korea sooner rather than
later
isolated sanctioned and at war north
koreais one of the world's few truly pariah
states
living largely cut off from the internet
and global trade has come at a punishing
cost for its people
but two things have made the secret of
state's economic survival possible
its efforts to be self-sustainable and
the support of
key allies north korea's tumultuous
relationship with most of its neighbors
and the us has seen it bear the brunt of
a long list of international sanctions
some measures have aimed to [ __ ]
parts of the economy supporting the
regime's nuclear missile program
wiping hundreds of millions of dollars
from the country's annual income
others have targeted regime officials
for human rights violations
but north korea has long worked to
produce enough food and goods
domestically to supply the country
looking at the relatively middle-class
lives on display in the showpiece
capital pyongyang
you might think that's been a success
but the capital is only home to around 3
million of the most privileged most
loyal citizens
for the other 20 million plus north
koreans living outside this city
poverty is the most common way of life
especially in the countryside
north koreans often go without the
basics like clean water medicine
and nutritious food the country's
economy is largely agrarian
and crop failures have led to mass food
shortages and the need for u.n emergency
food aid
internationally north korea's recent
overtures for peace
attracted attention but it has been the
communist regime's more
hidden relationships that have reaped
benefits for the north korean elite
china has been north korea's main
trading partner coal
seafood and agricultural products have
all flowed from north korea
while china has pumped pyongyang with
enough oil to fuel its industries
according to the u.s beijing's
consistently poor enforcement of
international sanctions
has also provided an economic loophole
for pyongyang
meanwhile a black market in korean goods
blossomedthanks to the secretive nation's poorest
border with china
with profits believed to go to the north
korean regime
in 2017 following a string of north
korean nuclear tests beijing finally cut
off pyongyang's access to its financial
system
nevertheless china remains a key
intermediary between the hermit kingdom
and the outside world
russia also maintains relatively close
ties with north korea it's rooted in
their cold war alliance
both russia and china have helped shield
north korea at the un security
council repeatedly rebuffing u.s
attempts to impose
harsher sanctions both nations have also
been home to north korean companies
and labor with some workers in russia
working in conditions that the u.s state
department has described
as slave-like labor in 2019 the u.s
believed north korea had some
100 000 citizens working abroad mostly
in russia and china
sending huge amounts of money back home
much of it right into the coffers of the
ruling kim family
and until they were banned by new un
sanctions in 2017
foreign labor contracts were a vital
source of foreign currency for the north
korean regime
the kim family has managed to keep a
tight grip on power for three
generations
putting the survival of the regime above
all else
including the north korean people

a lot of the greco-roman city of pompeii
is still covered in debris
almost 2 000 years after mount vesuvius
erupted and buried it
its last breath from the year 79 a.d has
been incredibly well preserved under a
thick layer of ash and dirt
today archaeologists continue to uncover
remains of the ancient city
one of their latest finds is a type of
chariot that's never been discovered in
italy before
it's a large four-wheeled chariot it was
made out of iron bronze
tin and wood and some of the wood along
with the
imprint of ropes still remains not only
is the thing remarkably intact
it somehow stayed that way despite the
partial collapse of the porch it was
housed in
researchers say they've found vehicles
including chariots in pompeii before
but never one like this a university of
massachusetts professor interviewed by
national public radio described the find
as a lamborghini of the ancient world
the archaeological park of pompeii
thinks it was used for ceremonial
purposes like
parades festivals maybe weddings it's
been moved to a laboratory to get
cleaned uprestored and reconstructed
pizza and dessert is a very popular
combo unless you're counting carbs are
sticking to a sort of paleo diet
and dessert pizzas are like two
high-calorie meals in one
they come in all kinds of combinations
like chocolate chip cookie pizza
cinnamon roll pizza or peanut butter cup
pizza but a restaurant in the u.s state
of iowa has stirred curiosity
compliments controversy and criticism
for a concoction with a cereal that
dates back seven decades
it starts like any other pizza
but then things start to get a little
loopy there's a fruity delight in every
bite
but is it a delight when it's fruit
loops pizza
fong's pizza in des moines iowa builds
it as a
breakfast and dessert pizza the fruit
loops obviously bring the sweetness in
the crunch
but others call it a crime against
humanity an abomination to pizza
everywhere
that looks like something you'd see on a
new york city sidewalk
after the st patrick's day parade you
seem to really make some people angry
as an italian i am formally declaring
war on iowa
fong's pizza actually dreamed up what
they callloopy fruits pizza six years ago we're
all sitting at a table and somebody goes
what about fruit loops but it never
quite took off
now they're relaunching it using cream
cheese then the fruit loops sprinkled
with a bit of mozzarella
and drizzled with a sauce made from
yogurt and sweet condensed milk
the color the taste the aroma the infamy
the creators of fruit loops pizza are
basking in the attention
froot loops may never replace pepperoni
but to its makers
it's quite delicious to an impartial
reporter from axios
it was all right the it definitely
reminded me of like when you were a kid
and you just
put like random things together like in
the princess
diaries when a pizza topped with
eminem's arrived for 19 bucks you can
get a large
loopy fruits pizza i ate about one slice
of ityeah i gave it a good try health nuts
won't go great nuts for that
but it is a golden crisp idea maybe
another maker will add a little cat and
crunch to their pizza
thanking their lucky charms that tricks
aren't just for kids
maybe count chocula himself will
honeycomb the aisles
getting his kicks out of a recipe that
smacks of apple jacks and snap crackle
pops with crispies
it's certainly food for thought west
memphis arkansas is our last stop today
want to give a shout out to the black
knights of west memphis christian school
