What an American’s death means for U.S. relations with North Korea.

President Trump condemned the death of 22-year-old American student Otto Warmbier -- who was released from North Korean detention in a coma -- and seemed to abandon his goal of enlisting China to pressure the regime. How does Warmbier’s tragic end affect the U.S. approach? John Yang explores what's at stake with Kathleen Stephens, former U.S. ambassador to South Korea.
