Obama didn’t do it for no reason. And I disagreed with it, vocally, when he did it.
That’s not the reason, however, that NK is balking at talks right now.
They’re balking because:
- Bolton’s tone toward the situation is a lot harder than Pompeo’s, and they don’t know which way they’re going to be treated.
- The US is proceeding with military exercises with SK.
It has nothing to do with how Obama treated Qaddafi.
