I I'm Peterlee and this is news birds China watch this week we're at the tipping point on North Korea and who's lying about that aircraft carrier an important week actually important day is coming up for North Korea the U. S. special envoy for North Korea Joseph Ian will be in Japan on April twenty fifth for joint meetings with ROK and Japanese officials April twenty fifth is2/47
north Korean army day which is considered to be a likely day for North Korea to do a nuclear test so Eunice visit is an indication that the US and its allies are planning a joint response in case of a provocation the White House also revealed Donald Trump will be consulting with prime minister of Japan Shinzo Ave and then president of China xi Jinping by phone on3/47
the evening of April twenty third which is April twenty four easier time undoubtedly they will be gaming North Korea and what they're going to say and do if attest happens Chinese because I state media provided a very strong indication that the P. R. C. would respond to any sixth nuclear test by supporting a UN security council sanction that cuts off petroleum products to North Korea in4/47
a sign North Korea might be taking this threat seriously the DPRK apparently signaled it could do very well without Chinese petroleum products thank you by cutting back supply in Pyongyang and spiking prices over eighty percent so you've got a U. S. Revlon US attack in case of an I CBM launch as I discussed last week you got a Chinese redline petroleum sanctions in case of a5/47
nuclear test where's that leaves things as far as China is concerned it wants the US to negotiate with the DPRK as far as the DPRK is concerned it says it won't negotiate as long as Washington refuses to abandon its hostile policy towards Pyongyang in %HESITATION related news according to the Swedish embassy in Pyongyang which handles U. S. DPRK matters North Korea detained in American citizen a6/47
professor named Tony Kim who is trying to fly home in the past North Korea has used such detentions to provide a reason for the U. S. to send an envoy to spring the hostage in two thousand nine Bill Clinton beat out Al Gore to go to Pyongyang to obtain the release of two American journalists maybe this indicates Kim Julian is looking for an American official or7/47
ex official to talk to directly if something happens on April twenty fifth it's big news if nothing happens on April twenty fifth that's news to well April twenty fifth is the day after the show tapes and the day before it airs so whatever happens or doesn't on April twenty fifth well that's for next week's show assuming we're all here meanwhile let's talk about the big deal8/47
from last week who's lying about the Carl Vinson this Carl Vinson the aircraft carrier and its associated carrier strike group if you've been following the news you know there was a big kerfuffle over the Carl Vincent's location trump said it was steaming toward North Korea as a show of force to demonstrate that his administration is serious about confronting him Julian then it turned out the Carl9/47
Vinson was no where near Korea in fact it was down by Australia the media take away in never trump American media trump is a liar and an idiot he doesn't know where his aircraft carrier is the south Korean press and presidential candidates picked up on this theme and it became a big international to do what's unpack this a little bit team trump weren't the only people10/47
bragging about the Vince a bunch of people in the U. S. military said it was headed north important people exhibit a they pull mine announcement from the U. S. third fleet admiral Harry Harris commander US Pacific command has directed the Carl Vinson strike group to sail north and report on station in the western Pacific Ocean after departing Singapore April eighth exhibit B. news confirmed by US11/47
defense official to see and a US aircraft carrier let's strike group is headed toward the western Pacific Ocean near the Korean peninsula a U. S. defense official confirmed to CNN police on April thirteenth the official story was still that the Vinson was headed toward North Korea then on April seventeenth the publication defense news pointed to a picture that on April fifteenth the Carl Vinson was three12/47
thousand miles away from the Korean peninsula in the sun the straight down by Indonesia Pacific command only official comment on the controversy with tweeting a seventy year old cartoon showing admiral Halsey rebutting some fake news in this case Japanese propaganda that it'd driven the third fleet out of the western Pacific in nineteen forty four we are retiring at high speed toward the Japanese fleet in an13/47
embarrassing situation like this what does the navy do it turns to the New York times motto the truth is under attack on April twentieth The New York Times published trump unleashes the generals they don't always see the big picture it places admiral Harry Harris at the center of the Carl Vinson narrative don't let the title fool you admiral Harris is the ultimate big picture guy in14/47
Asia admiral Harris is the commander of P. com United States Pacific command he is responsible for US military operations over half the world's surface from the US west coast over to India an up and down to the north and south poles is an admiral because pecans headquartered at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii and has got lots of ships and it's always run by an animal but all15/47
the U. S. army marine and airforce units in the region report to him including US army Korea all that stuff in Japan as well as the Pacific Fleet with the carrier strike groups and the submarines that's three hundred and seventy five thousand people he's got his own intelligence service he's also hands on in managing the US military relationship with treaty allies that's Japan South Korea the16/47
Philippines Australia and Thailand in the Roman Empire this kinda guy was called a proconsul you can call him admiral Harris and admiral Harris knows where all his aircraft carriers are even of Donald Trump doesn't so what's the story about admiral Harris in the Carl Vinson according to The New York Times goes like this when admiral Harry be harassed junior the military's top commander in the Pacific17/47
ordered the aircraft carrier Vincent to sail north from Singapore this month he was %HESITATION Livius to the larger and incorrect impression that he was rushing a naval strike forced to confront an increasingly belligerent North Korea navy officials said the main reason for issuing the release was to alert the families of thousands of sailors that Adonal Harris had also cancelled a port call for the ships in18/47
Fremantle Australia where many relatives were planning to meet their loved ones admiral Harris feared that images of sailors on shore leave would be unseemly at a time when North Korea was firing missiles officials said the news release omitted any mention of a secretive naval exercise with Australia that admiral Harris never meant to suggest he was canceling navy officials said so are we to understand admiral Harris19/47
in the words of the New York times was open Livius to trump administration plans for the Carl Vinson off Korea and simply announce the Vinson was selling to the western Pacific in order to have an excuse to cancel and unseemly port visit really this is a week even by the standards of totally in the tank national security reporting how can I be so bold as to20/47
say this because on April twelfth admiral Harris was giving a speech in Chicago and the discussing Korean tensions he said Bruce that's why the USS Carl Vinson carrier strike group is heading back to northeast Asia no admiral Harris was not %HESITATION Bolivia's to the trumpet ministrations desire for a show of force against North Korea and I think he knew that the Vincent was wanted up there21/47
as another data point recall that on the same day April twelfth the US airforce base at Kadena in Japan which is also under admiral Harris and P. com put every plane it had on the runway in tight formation fully fueled and aren't as a show of force against North Korea it's called an elephant walk the unavoidable inference is that pay come new it was tasked with22/47
making a big show of force to communicate US resolve on North Korea and the Vincent was supposed to be part of it to me the most likely explanation is that apple Harris knew that the USS Carl Vinson was wanted for that show force off North Korea but he didn't want to send it right away why not well my understanding of pecans priorities or something like this23/47
okay comes most important relationships are with the militaries of treaty allies in the Pacific that's Japan Australia South Korea Thailand and the Philippines next come civilians including all those politicians who run governments around the world and in the United States and make things complicated for military people at the very bottom of the pyramid of friendship you find Chinese communists the child comes Abdul Harris is very24/47
much the China hawk he sees his job as fighting a never ending battle against P. R. C. expansionism and aggression in Asia and to be prepared to fight and win a super mega colossal war with China for the future of the world if necessary the simplest inference would be that admiral Harris did not like the idea of canceling a military exercise with treaty ally Australia to25/47
hurry his straight group up to Korea to help civilians Donald Trump and the Chinese communists pressure North Korea simple peak in other words trump can order up a carrier group like a pizza especially to serve the chai comes it'll get up there when we're done with their exercises with our friends in Australia not a terribly big deal perhaps there's no hurry anyway diplomacy's been penciled in26/47
for the next few weeks the trumpet ministration has signaled its giving China diplomacy and whatever it's doing with North Korea behind the scenes about a month to shake out before it gets serious about any kind of attack so it was understandable that there might be some strategic ambiguity about the location of the Vinson and maybe it would have been okay for the Vincent to of been27/47
dawdling around Indonesia instead of rushing to Korea one retired navy aviator speculated that perhaps the Vincent was taking its time to get its pilots current one carrier night landings so be ready for big doings the moment it arrived off Korea but riddle me this if there really was some idea like let's full Kim Jong in into thinking the Vincents on its way when it's actually down28/47
here in Australia so I don't need to send it now that doesn't really explain why the navy blew the Vincents cover with the Sunda strait picture now does it if the actual whereabouts but the Vincent was a secret and a rather embarrassing secret at that why was the photo showing the Vincent in the Sunda strait officially released by the United States Navy not just the picture29/47
but a picture with a helpful caption dated April fifteenth stating the USS Carl Vinson transits the Sunda strait it seems to me the main issue here is the U. S. navy revealing the location of its strike force and causing an international incident standard policy honest groove bit of a stretch especially when the Facebook page of the Carl Vinson has permanently pinned this notice loose lips sink30/47
ships any discussion or speculation of the ship's location or anticipated import dates before they're officially released may result in revocation of access to this page remember the bad guys do follow our Facebook page to because news but viewers deserve the best I queried the U. S. navy media center about this and they answered all hail news but they said thank you for your query the navy31/47
routinely releases imagery of operational units to tell the navy story in a timely manner well mindful of operational purity I thought some news but in my opinion did better the navy times in the version the navy times got which took eight anonymous sources to work up there was a crisis caused by the non movement north of the Vince and it was really bad then somehow the32/47
Sunda strait photo appeared in defense dues and the crisis got really really bad problem solved the end in my opinion the simplest story is still the most plausible and we'll hear signal or trump and kept the Vincent straight group down in Australia to complete the exercise when things got a little too hard the navy dropped the photo and tried to walk away or sail away from33/47
the problem but maybe admiral Harris or whoever got that photo to defense news had more in mind than making a bad situation worse maybe he or she actually wanted the so called you a show of resolve to look like a sham one thing that's becoming clearer and clearer is that China hawks to test the idea that trump is reaching out to see Jim ping to work34/47
together on pressuring North Korea bargaining doesn't work deals with China are bad makes us look weak in front of the Asians maybe to the hawks sabotaging what they see as a flawed gambit to solve the Korean nuclear conundrum is an acceptable price to pay for making sure U. S. China policy is not fatally polluted by appeasement it wouldn't be the first time on the last day35/47
before Truman relieved him in nineteen fifty one Douglas McArthur tried to spread the Korean War into China to keep it from flaming out you can get the details on this little known chunk of Asian history and much more if you join news but and go behind a paywall to view this week's episode of Asia brief annals of insubordination in Korea that's a teaser folks maybe apple36/47
Harris like everybody else in Washington knows that Kim Julian wants to tilt toward the United States and he thinks it's ridiculous to involve China and let the P. R. C. gain credibility in Asia both as a regional power ending you S. partner by being part Billy Winn on North Korea the good news is if you're a fan of civilian control of the military anyway is that37/47
now the Carl Vinson apparently is really really heading toward Korean waters there's also confirmation that two Japanese destroyers will join the Vinson carrier strike group for exercises along the way but no confirmation as yet US and Japanese forces will jointly sail off North Korea anyway we'll see if I'm all Harris wants to shut down the China track on North Korea it's probably going to happen Asia38/47
is pay comes world we just live in it finally concerning Donald Trump statement that she temping told him Korea used to be part of China if she can ping actually said that instead of something like crew was in the subordinate relationship with Chinese dynasties a lot of the time that was a pretty major diplomatic clang here that would rightfully infuriate Koreans the height of non Korean39/47
domination of the Korean peninsula prior to the modern era was during the UN dynasty of the fourteenth century which meant Mongol rule the Mongols impose their own military and administrative institutions in Korea and gave them paramount power but even so the administration was staffed by the Korean royal family and its appointees and create was never completely incorporated into the empire Korea's sovereignty was only extinguished by40/47
its annexation by Japan in nineteen ten and the legal validity of the Japanese annexation is still contested by Koreans just so you know that's all for this week thanks for watching if you're watching this on you to go to news but dot com where you'll find exclusive content available only to the news but community looting my age reports and the opportunity to interact with me China41/47
