2017 - 36: North Korea's Nuclear Trump Card

As the two leaders trade threats, reporter Jane Corbin investigates how North Korea has dodged sanctions and thwarted international efforts to stop it becoming a nuclear power. She also asks how the two leaders can move back from the brink, and how likely it is this could all end in nuclear war?
