'It's a disaster' Trump brands US-China trade deficit 'embarrassing' ahead of Asia visit

The President also described the trade gap as "horrible" and told Cabinet officials today every trade deal America is involved in is "disastrous".

Mr Trump is set to embark on a 12-day tour to Asia on Friday which includes stops in South Korea, Japan and China.

And trade talks - as well as how to deal with North Korea - are expected to be high on the agenda when the US leader and Mr Xi meet for the third time in Beijing.  Mr Trump has played up his relationship his Chinese counterpart, and Mr Xi has described the President as "a personal friend".

But the real estate mogul has repeatedly complained about the US trade deficit with China, which he says unfairly favours the Beijing.  Official figures from the US Census Bureau shows America has imported four times the amount of goods from China than it exports so far this year.

From January to the end of August, the US exported $80billion worth of goods but imported a massive $319billion.  In 2016, the total goods trade deficit with China was $347billion. .

And during his election campaign, Mr Trump frequently criticised China's economic policies and said they were responsible for "stealing" US manufacturing jobs and slowing economic growth.  He said Mr Xi's Communist Party was deliberately devaluing its currency to make it easier and cheaper for American businesses and consumers to purchase goods produced there.

Mr Trump went as far as making an election pledge to name China a "currency manipulator" on his first day in office, though he has yet to make good on the promise.

Speaking on Monday, Mr Xi said he and Mr Trump had made considerable efforts to improve US-China relations. He told reporters: "The two of us have also maintained a good working relationship and personal friendship.

"I believe that President Trump's upcoming visit to China means an important opportunity for the further development of China-US relations." Mr Trump's trip comes at a time of heightened tensions in East Asia, with North Korea continuing to carry out nuclear and long-range missile tests despite widespread condemnation.  Beijing has previously agreed to help pressure despot Kim Jong-un into giving up on his nuclear ambitions through a series of sanctions.  But officials in Washington have criticised China for not following through on its commitments.

The Asian superpower is North Korea's sole major ally, and accounts for more than 90 per cent of trade with the hermit state.

North Korea could kill THOUSANDS in automatic retaliation to US strike, defector warns - DAILY NEWS - Duration: 3:53.

North Korea could kill THOUSANDS in automatic retaliation to US strike, defector warns

NORTH Korea would "retaliate automatically" if the US launched a pre-emptive strike, a

high ranking defector has revealed.

Donald Trump's administration has repeatedly touted a targeted strike as an option to end

Kim Jong-un's missile programme.

Such an attack could lead to tens of thousands of deaths in the first hours of an all-out

regional conflict.

Defector Thae Yong Ho, who formerly worked at the North Korean Embassy in London, outlined

the risks of a strike against the hermit kingdom.

Pyongyang would unleash a barrage of artillery and short-range missiles attack on targets

in South Korea, Thae said.

South Korea's capital, Seoul, has a population of nearly 10 million and is around 25 miles

away from the frontier between the rival nations.

Thae warned: "North Korean officers are trained to press their button without any

further instructions from the general command if anything happens on their side."

The high-ranking defector was speaking to a congressional hearing in Washington as he

called for the US to exercise "soft power" over force.

He claimed there would be a "human sacrifice" from an attack with the threat of "tens

of thousands" of artillery guns and missiles.

Thae said: "We have to remember that tens of millions of South Korean population are

living 70 to 80 kilometres away from this military demarcation line."

Kim could unleash his devastating arsenal of biological and chemical weapons as well

as his nuclear weapons in a war with South Korea.

Analysts have argued that a regional conflict and the associated costs would be preferable

to North Korea acquiring a nuclear ballistic missile capable of reaching the US mainland.

Democratic Senator Tammy Duckworth has asked the US President to publish official estimates

of the loss of life that could result from a conflict on the peninsula.

She said: "I fear the country is being deprived of an accurate assessment of what war against

the DPRK would entail."

The warning came as NATO called for countries to unite against the North Korean "global

threat" as World War 3 tensions rise.

Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg launched the urgent calls during a meeting in Seoul

with South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha.

He said: "It's a global threat.

It's a big challenge for the Republic of Korea being so close.

"But it's also a challenge for the rest of the world because North Korea is now developing

more longer-range missiles able to reach both North America and Europe.

"This is another example that security is inter-connected and global threats require

global responses."

"Therefore we should look into how we can work together on global challenges.

"The Republic of Korea is one of NATO's longest-standing partners outside Europe and with tension and

challenges related to North Korea and many other issues, it's important we are able to

strengthen and develop our partnerships."

Ms Kang showed her appreciation for NATO support and insisted that further help is needed as

the rogue nation continues to threaten further provocations.

North Korea dealt HUGE BLOW as China allow US anti-missile shields to be installed

has had its missile programme seemingly weakened as China and South Korea agree to hold bilateral meetings to strengthen their ties as their rouge neighbour Kim Jong-un threatens to start World War 3 The deputy director of South Korea's National Security Office, Nam Gwan-pyo, announced President Moon Jae-in would attend a separate meeting with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping to end a year-long argument on US defence systems in the Korean peninsula.

At a press conference broadcasted by , Mr Gwan-pyo said: South Korea and China have agreed to hold a bilateral summit between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Da Nang, Vietnam next week.

"Our two countries are also working towards President Moons bilateral talks with Chinese Prime Minister Li Keqiang when they both take part in the ASEAN-related summits in Manila."  .

Chinas relationship with South Korea became strained after Seoul and Washington jointly decided to deploy a missile defence system in response to North Korea's nuclear programme.

claimed the Terminal High Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) could be used to spy into its territory but was rebuked by both countries. Chinese President Jinping will meet his South Korean counterpart on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit.

The two heads of state are likely to discuss Kim Jong-uns missile and nuclear programme as well as ways to develop bilateral ties, a senior South Korean presidential Blue House official later told reporters, declining to be identified due to the sensitivity of the matter.     .

Pyongyang has undertaken an unprecedented missile testing programme in recent months, as well as its biggest nuclear test yet in early September, as it seeks to develop a powerful nuclear weapon capable of reaching the United States.  North Koreas actions have angered China, its only major ally, and drawn further tough sanctions from the United Nations and the United States.  North Korea further angered the Chinese government after it ignored warnings about the safety of the country's main testing facility in Punggye-ri.

The North Korean site suffered a major collapse, killing hundreds and putting the entire region at risk due to possible clouds of radioactive fallout.

It comes as US President prepares to kickstart his first tour of Asia to mark his first year in office.

America in SECRET TALKS with Kim? US official makes shock admission - Duration: 5:07.

America in SECRET TALKS with Kim? US official makes shock admission

As tensions threaten to reach breaking point on the Korean peninsula, the US is quietly pursuing direct diplomacy with North Korea, a senior State Department official has admitted.  The admission is in stark contrast to US President Donald Trumps public assertions that such talks are a waste of time.

But Joseph Yun, a US negotiator with North Korea, has been in contact with diplomats under the so called "New York channel" at Pyongyangs United Nations mission, the official said.

The New York channel is one of the few conduits the US has for communicating with North Korea, which has itself made clear it has little interest in serious talks before it develops a nuclear-tipped missile capable of hitting the continental United States.

A State Department official said among the points Mr Yun has made to his North Korean interlocutors is to stop testing nuclear bombs and missiles.

It comes at a time when an exchange of sabre-rattling insults between Mr Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has fuelled fears of World War 3.  US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said on October 17 he would continue diplomatic efforts.

until the first bomb drops."  But Mr Yun's officials comments were the clearest sign the US is directly discussing issues beyond the release of American prisoners, despite Mr Trump having dismissed direct talks as pointless.

There is no sign, however, that the behind-the-scenes communications have improved a relationship vexed by North Koreas nuclear and missile tests and the death of US university student Otto Warmbier days after his release by Pyongyang in June and the detention of three other Americans.

Word of quiet engagement with Pyongyang comes despite Mr Trumps comments, North Koreas weapons advances and suggestions by some US and South Korean officials that Mr Yuns interactions with North Koreans had been reined in.

Mr Yun said: "It has not been limited at all, both in frequency and substance."  This year, North Korea conducted its sixth and most powerful nuclear detonation and has test-fired a volley of missiles, including intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) that, if perfected, could in theory reach the United States mainland.

The possibility that Pyongyang may be closer to attaching a nuclear warhead to an ICBM has alarmed the Trump administration, which in April unveiled a policy of maximum pressure and engagement that has so far failed to deter North Korea.

At the start of Mr Trumps presidency, Mr Yuns instructions were limited to seeking the release of US prisoners.

A State Department official said: "It is now a broader mandate than that."  However, when Mr Trump spoke at the UN on September 19, he vowed to totally destroy North Korea if Kim threatened the US or its allies, raising anxieties about the possibility of military conflict.

Days later, after Mr Tillerson said Washington was probing for a diplomatic opening, Mr Trump said on Twitter his chief diplomat was wasting his time trying to negotiate with Little Rocket Man - his mocking nickname for the North Korean leader.

It comes as Mr Trump prepares for his first presidential trip to Asia amid tensions on the home front as Democratic US senators introduced a bill on Tuesday they said would prevent the President from launching a nuclear first strike on North Korea on his own.

How the second-busiest U.S. fishing port is powered by wind and water - Duration: 4:40.

HARI SREENIVASAN: Kodiak, Alaska, is not only home to brown bears and abundant fishing grounds,

but also one of the most innovative power grids in the country.

From Alaska Public Media, Rachel Waldholz reports.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Kodiak, Alaska is all about fish.

From commercial fishermen, to the island's four-legged residents, everyone depends on

seafood.

James Turner manages the Ocean Beauty seafood plant in Kodiak.

The town's half-dozen processors serve the second busiest fishing port in the nation.

JAMES TURNER, Ocean Beauty: This is a 24-hour plant, so we run round the clock.

This plant will run anywhere from 40 million to 91 million pounds a year.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Processing all that fish takes a lot of power.

And, in Kodiak, all that power comes from renewable sources right here on the island.

Kodiak decided to aim for nearly 100 percent renewable energy back in 2007.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK, Kodiak Electric Association: There was risk.

There was engineering risk.

There was construction risk.

It was -- it was taking a leap.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Jennifer Richcreek works for the Kodiak Electric Association, the local

co-op that runs the community's power grid.

A decade ago, the co-op had a problem: the cost of diesel.

Back in the '90s, Kodiak got just about all of its electricity from a hydro dam.

But as demand increased, they had to use diesel generators more often, and diesel costs were

going through the roof.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK: We were burning millions of gallons of diesel oil.

It was a very vulnerable position.

Diesel is very expensive.

Its price is very volatile.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: So the co-op decided to harness something Kodiak has a lot of: wind.

But wind isn't always easy to work with.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK: Wind is a wild child.

You don't know when the wind is going to blow.

You don't know how long it's going to blow.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: It's that variability that communities across the country, large and

small, are struggling with as they try to add more renewable energy to their grids.

The way you deal with that is energy storage.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK: Energy storage is the hot topic in renewable energy, because of

the variable nature of solar and wind, to be able to stabilize that.

Energy storage is huge.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Kodiak's first solution was a bank of batteries.

Wind can drop away in a moment, but it takes minutes for the hydropower to ramp up behind

it.

The batteries bridge that gap.

They absorb excess power when the wind is blowing hard, then release that energy back

into the grid as the wind drops.

But just as engineers figured out how to balance wind and water, a new challenge was brewing

over at the port.

RICK KNIAZIOWSKI, Matson: Our old crane was diesel-powered.

It was fairly small, and it started breaking down quite a bit and made us very nervous

that our ability to operate was in jeopardy.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Rick Kniaziowski manages the Kodiak shipping terminal for the company

Matson.

RICK KNIAZIOWSKI: So, we will go up to the elevator and then head up to the third floor.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: The company wanted to install a new larger electric crane.

That was a big ask.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK: How do we supply that much power that fast, while maintaining all

of the other power quality factors throughout the grid to keep it stable?

So, took some time to think about it, modeled it out, and came to the decision that flywheel

can do the job.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Just like the batteries, it's a kind of energy storage.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK: A flywheel is a massive piece of steel spinning in a frictionless

vacuum chamber hovered by magnets.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: In practice, it works a bit like the braking system on an electric car.

As the crane lifts a shipping crate, it draws a bunch of power from the grid, pulling energy

from that spinning flywheel.

But when that container is lowered back to the ground, the crane's braking system generates

electricity.

The flywheel stores nearly all the energy required to power the next lift.

RICK KNIAZIOWSKI: There are no grids this small that operate an electric crane.

So this was kind of a leading edge.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: The result is a grid like nowhere else on the planet.

And they have managed to do that while keeping electricity costs slightly lower than they

were a decade ago.

For Kodiak, that means a local source of power that isn't vulnerable to swings in the price

of oil.

Jennifer Richcreek believes the lessons learned here could help communities around the globe.

JENNIFER RICHCREEK: As renewables continue to grow and expand and displace fossil fuels,

it will require a shift in infrastructure design.

And so we're collecting the data, we're modeling it, we're sharing it.

RACHEL WALDHOLZ: Which might help other communities follow Kodiak to more than 99 percent renewable

power.

For the "PBS NewsHour," I'm Rachel Waldholz in Kodiak, Alaska.

What if USA Never Existed? - Duration: 5:01.

What has the United States ever done for us?

Can you imagine a world without NASA, Mickey Mouse, or McDonalds?

It's a fairly mind-boggling hypothetical to get our heads around, if for some reason

those Brits had won the revolutionary war and the United States had never been formed.

That's what we'll look at today, in this episode of the Infographics Show, What if

the USA never existed?

Don't forget to subscribe and click the bell button so that you can be part of our

Notification Squad.

Rather than imagine a USA that somehow remained a wilderness inhabited by hunting and sometimes

warfarin tribes, we'll try to imagine an alternate history based on if there had been

no American revolution.

One of the reasons the Brits were defeated was the fact that its forces were placed all

over the world.

As empires do, it was playing a real-life game of Risk.

According to the recent history book, "The English and their History", writer Robert

Tombs states that the British army could have easily defeated the revolutionaries, but that

would have meant taking a major risk regarding its other colonies.

If we believe Tombs, we can at least take this hypothetical show seriously.

Even if the land was still under British rule, we have to imagine that there would still

be a lot of discord in the nation.

There would be a huge economic disparity, and the north would have most of the money.

The British, still rightly paranoid about the rise of the rest of Europe, would have

a hard time persuading settlers in the new world to stay with them.

The French would be the main threat.

Had the American Revolution not happened, perhaps the French revolution would also not

have happened.

The writer Thomas Paine may still have written Common Sense, but perhaps more people in our

alternate history tended to think the Brits had more of it.

If that was the case, Paine may not have been so fired up about the French Revolution, as

he couldn't have defended an ideology of freedom and democracy under the influence

of the American Revolution.

Paine would have likely been arrested in America and executed for treason.

The question is, would the Brits have sought a fairer way of living for citizens in their

colonies, or would it only be a matter of time before there was a revolution against

them?

The world surely would have been a worse place without The Rights of Man, but it's likely

someone would have written them.

Britain would be very powerful and very rich, much to the chagrin of the French.

The French would likely build a stronghold in the USA as it already had French Louisiana.

Perhaps there would be some consolidation between the French and Brits, and due to no

revolution, there would likely have not been a Napoleon and both the French and the British

would have been a tad ruthless and aristocratic.

How the world would have been divided up is too much to speculate, but it would have been

very different.

It's likely Germany would still have waged a war in Europe anyway, and possibly with

France and Great Britain at each other's throats, Germany would have come out better.

But for now, let's stay with Britain and British culture as globally dominant.

It's likely human rights and personal freedom would have taken much longer to manifest in

the world, mainly because Britain was, and still is, very much a class culture.

There would have been a kind of Platonic high-class/low-class separation of society, and for some poor folks,

no chance to live the British Dream and enjoy 'the pursuit of happiness'.

But British hegemony would not have meant disaster in terms of how everyday society

works.

The strong European nations would still have created fairer forms of democracy, while science

and the arts would have still evolved.

Europe had always been the powerhouse of science, industry, philosophy, and so no America wouldn't

have thwarted societal progression.

We must remember, though, that many of the technologies we have today were created or

vastly improved because of the world wars.

And that includes computer technology.

The first computer was actually invented by a Brit called Charles Babbage.

So, while we may not have had a Silicon Valley, computer industries would have still taken

off around the world.

One thing that may have been different is how and why we use computers.

America is a country of individualism, so perhaps the fact Facebook was created there

isn't that surprising.

The fascinating documentary 'Century of Self' focuses on how advertising companies

and also the government in the American past could engineer consent and manipulate what

they called 'the herd' by making them identify with products and ideologies using

psychological manipulation.

America firmly put the 'self' into society, and it virtually created public relations

and advertising.

Without America, perhaps the self would never have been so important, and we would still

be living in societies that embrace collectivism more.

While individualism would still have taken root in Europe, it's likely consumerism

and self-identifying with our products and brands, may have not been quite the same.

We might not have had a culture where being liked can happen at the push of a button,

or one in which a ruler is in love with Twitter.

We might also ask what would have happened if those class conscious Brits would have

been defeated by Fascist or Communist nations.

Karl Marx wrote that the communist utopia could not exist before capitalism finally

imploded, and the USA has been to some extent the greatest conduit of capitalism.

Without the USA, democratic ways of life could have been severely at risk.

We could also ask if, with unhindered New Capitalism and neo-liberalism, which are very

American, we are consuming our way to self-destruction?

European dominance may have not included the Big Gulp and Big Pharma lobbying arms.

Or, would British global dominance, or French, or Russian, or Chinese, have been any different?

One thing we can tell you, is that if the USA had never existed, you wouldn't be watching

this.

But would something similar have been invented, and would you have had the freedom to discuss

some of the things we've mentioned today?

Would we have had the specter of 'fake news' or even the technology for big brother to

know we are reading it?

Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

WORLD ON ALERT: North Korea WILL launch dreaded Juche Bird nuke missile, US reveals - Duration: 3:13.

WORLD ON ALERT: North Korea WILL launch dreaded Juche Bird nuke missile, US reveals

The US military confirmed officials were taking s threat to explode a H-bomb over the Pacific seriously as tensions between Washington and Pyongyang rage on.

The hermit kingdom's top diplomats announced plans for test after a fiery clash with US President Donald Trump at the UN.

And the threat was followed up with a promise it should be taken "literally" - and now US military bosses admitted what was discarded as bluster could actually amount to a cold, hard threat.

An unnamed US official told Defense News: "I would fully expect if he's telling us he'll do it, he's going to.". The official was briefing reporters who were travelling with the US's top commander General Joseph Dunford.

If the launch goes ahead as speculated, Kim's missile would be launched from the nation's eastern coast before hurtling over Japan and crashing into the central Pacific.

It would destroy any living being in the immediate vicinity, sending fallout across a wide area.  And a failed detonation could see the missile come hurtling down onto Japan. .

Analysts dubbed the North Korean weapon the Juche Bird in an echo of the America's only ballistic missile launch with a nuclear warhead - the Frigate Bird.

But if Kim were to launch the Juche Bird, the move may be an unprecedented step by North Korea that could spark.

The news comes after experts today warned the humiliated despot may have no choice but to launch another test and fire the Juche Bird following a devastating collapse at it underground nuclear base.

Around 200 people have died at one of North Korea's nuclear testing after a tunnel collapsed on workers. .

The disaster is a major embarrassment for North Korea, laying bare the crumbling state of the hermit state's testing facilities.  And expert Joshua Pollack said Kim would now push for a provocative "public demonstration" to regain some control.  He said: "North Korean leadership undoubtedly feels pushed into a corner." Mr Pollack said Kim could make good on his promise earlier this summer to launch "the most powerful detonation of an H-bomb in the Pacific".

'US will turn to ASHES at ANY moment' North Korea in horrifying threat to enemies - DAILY NEWS - Duration: 2:46.

'US will turn to ASHES at ANY moment' North Korea in horrifying threat to enemies

KIM Jong-un has issued a fresh attack on his sworn enemies as fears of war grow once again.

With US President Donald Trump about to head to Asia the rhetoric has ramped up once again

between the nations.

US officials fear Kim may fire his Juche Bird nuclear missile in an ultimate provocation

that could start World War 3.

Now Kim, speaking through his mouthpiece newspaper Rodong Sinmun, has issued a threat to the

US and his other enemies.

It said in an editorial: "The US, Japan and the South Korean puppet forces should

clearly understand that the horrible nightmare, in which US mainland turns into ashes and

the Japanese archipelago is buried in the Pacific as a whole and the South Korean land

is devastated, can be put into a reality any moment should they run reckless, while failing

to size up the strategic position of the DPRK and the change of the times."

The shocking threat comes as North Korea slammed the US and South Korea for conducting terrifying

drills in the Korean peninsula last week – getting Kim worried.

At least 40 vessels took part in massive war games in the Pacific Ocean led by super-carrier

the USS Ronald Reagan.

Rodong Sinmun added: "Their provocative acts are premeditated ones to take an active

part in the US-led missile defense system while furthering the cooperation with outsiders

for invasion of the DPRK.

"It is needless to say that this poses serious threats to peace and security in the Korean

peninsula and the region."

At least 200 men died in a collapse at a test site after North Korea tested an H-bomb, it

emerged yesterday.

Soldiers are now reported to have been taken ill as the nuclear base becomes increasingly

unstable, amid fears of a radioactive disaster.

Hundreds of thousands of troops are said to be deployed at the Punggye-ri site near North

Korea's borders with Russia and China.

Kim has now set up a hospital near the base to treat troops suffering from exposure to

radiation.
