Amid Tensions in North Korea, A Diplomatic Mission for Nuclear Transparency

The World
As South Korea staged live artillery drills on an island near its disputed boarder with the North, New Mexico's Governor Bill Richardson was pressing the reclusive neighboring country not to retaliate.

Chris Hogg, reporting for our partners the BBC from China, joins us for more on the story.
