State Dept: U.S. willing to offer N. Korea ‘bright future’

Season 2018 Episode 162 | 8m 02s

President Trump dealt with two major international security issues in vastly different ways this week. Nick Schifrin talks to Brian Hook, a State Department official who went to Pyongyang and returned with three Americans who had been held captive. He also led negotiations with the Europeans ahead of the president's decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal.
