RUSH EXCERPT:
PSAKI: "North Korean leaders have long sought meetings with American presidents for decades. That's not a new ask or new invitation. He has broken the fever that's existed for some time on whether we should or should not directly negotiate. That's something that many people in the Obama Administration thought we should have considered more. In that sense, he deserves credit. This is far preferable to going to war or taking military action by all accounts. I think the big question is what next? When they say they agreed to Duh nuclearization we don't know that's going to mean access or they will sign anything. It will require a very detailed negotiation. We can give credit for this being better than military action."
