North and South Korea Meet

The two Koreas met for the first time in years - to talk Olympics and more. It is just a first step

The two Koreas met for the first time in years - to talk Olympics and more. It's just a first step - expect the North to want more, soon. Also in the programme: Assad steps up the pressure in Idlib province; the search for MH370 resumes; and the importance of using the right kind of language.
