  • Carla's CNN 10 is getting things started this two day with report concerning Russian athletes and international sports.

  • In fact, if the World Anti Doping Agency gets its way, Russian athletes won't be allowed to compete in major international sports for four years.

  • The World Anti Doping Agency works to keep certain drugs out of sports.

  • Performance enhancing drugs, which could give athletes and unfair advantage, are among them.

  • In 2016 a report came out that accused Russia of having a widespread and complicated doping or drug program that was supported by the Russian government.

  • The World Anti Doping Agency says Russia hasn't fully cooperated with investigations into this, so it voted on Monday to ban the country from major events.

  • What does that mean?

  • If the decision is upheld, Russia won't be ableto host any major international sporting events for four years in the 2020 Summer Olympics and Paralympics, the 2022 Winter Olympics and the 2022 World Cup finals, the Russian flag won't be flown and the country's national anthem won't be played.

  • This doesn't mean that all Russian athletes have been kicked out.

  • Those who can prove they never took part in doping programs can still compete as neutral athletes.

  • You might remember in the 2018 Olympics how a number of people competed as Olympic athletes from Russia.

  • When they won medals, the Olympic flag was raised and the Olympic anthem was played.

  • That same thing could happen again.

  • And if the Russian national soccer team qualifies for the 2022 World Cup, it will be allowed to play.

  • But we'll have to compete as a neutral team.

  • The World Anti Doping Agency says Russia's been given every chance to quote, get its house in order and rejoin the global anti doping community.

  • But it chose instead to continue in its stance of deception and denial.

  • The United States Anti Doping Agency says Russia's punishment doesn't go far enough that the country should have been completely banned from international competition.

  • But Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev says though his country has had problems with doping, the decision to ban Russian athletes, including some who have already been punished makes it look like a continuation of anti Russian hysteria.

  • He wants Russian organizations to appeal the decision, and another Russian government officials suggested the country would do that because Russia quote must defend our athletes.

  • Meantime, there are signs of strain appearing in the roller coaster relationship between the United States and North Korea.

  • For about a year and 1/2 now, their leaders have tried and failed to reach an agreement concerning North Korea's controversial nuclear program.

  • America has a number of penalties in place on North Korea's economy, and the communist country wants those removed first before it gets rid of its nuclear program.

  • The U.

  • S wants North Korea to denuclearize first before the sanctions are lifted.

  • So they've been butting heads there.

  • And in recent days, U.

  • S President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Eun have traded words of warning.

  • We're back in familiar territory here, a test from North Korea over the weekend and then followed by this increasing rhetoric between the North Koreans and the United States.

  • Now, on Sunday, the North Koreans announced that they had the day before carried out a very important, a very successful test.

  • They didn't specify what exactly it was, but experts looking at satellite imagery say that they believe that it was a rocket engine test.

  • We're waiting for confirmation from Pyongyang on that, but it could be used for launching a satellite launchers or I C.

  • B.

  • M s intercontinental ballistic missiles that potentially could hit mainland United States.

  • That is the particular missile that Washington is most concerned with Now.

  • We did have a response from the U.

  • S.

  • President Donald Trump saying that he believed that Kim Jong UN is too smart to to throw everything away and said that he would lose everything if in fact, he was acting in a hostile way, also saying that acting in a hostel well way could avoid the special relationship between him on Kim Jong un.

  • Now we've had a reaction as well from the North Korean side fairly quickly.

  • This was Kim Young told the former nuclear negotiator of North Korea, who met with President Trump just in January of this year in the Oval Office at the White House.

  • On delivered a message of a positive message from Kim Jong un at the time.

  • But he has said that these remarks in the U.

  • S.

  • President of inappropriate they are dangerous if he continues, and Kim Jong UN may have to reassess what he thinks off the U.

  • S.

  • President say North Korea has nothing more to lose.

  • Now, up until this point, North Korean officials have been very careful not to slam the U.

  • S president.

  • They have slammed the U.

  • S policy when it comes to North Korea, but never President Trump himself.

  • So certainly that is something that is changing on.

  • Also, just on Saturday, we heard from the North Korean ambassador to the U.

  • N.

  • Kim Song, saying that the denuclearization was off the table when it comes to negotiation with the U.

  • S.

  • And they have no need now for lengthy talks with the U.

  • S.

  • So clearly the relationship between the U.

  • S.

  • On North Korea is suffering at this point.

  • So, um, an explosion underneath the lake would have thrown out very, very hot kind of steam eso those burn injuries likely a result of steam blasts.

  • But the explosion would have created a lot of what we call ballistics lots of rocks falling as well.

  • Soon after the eruption, an emergency operation was launched to locate and rescue those on the island.

  • But police say at this stage it is too dangerous for police and rescue to go onto the island as it's covered in ash and volcanic material.

  • The white island volcano is New Zealand's most active cone volcano.
