US Vise President: "All Options on Table" with N. Korea
President Mike Pence
Seoul - Arab Today
US Vice President Mike Pence said on Monday during his visit to the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) separating the two Koreas that the United States does not rule out any option to address the problems of North Korean ballistic and nuclear programs.
Upon arrival at the inter-Korean border village of Panmunjeom inside the DMZ, Pence said "all options are on the table" although Washington wants to achieve security peacefully. He also called the US relationship with the South "ironclad and immutable".
During his visit to Camp Bonifas, US-led UN base about 400 meters (438 yards) from the Demilitarized Zone, the US Vice President said "It is particularly humbling for me to be here. My father served in the Korean War with the US Army, and on the way here, we actually saw some of the terrain my father fought on alongside Korean forces to help earn your freedom." On Sunday, Pence strongly criticized North Korea's failed missile test, calling it a "provocation", according to (Yonhap) news agency.
He also stressed US full support for South Korea in the face of threats from the North.

Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led hisGMT 09:22 2018 Monday ,22 January
