Fmr. Obama Adviser: Trump’s Summit with Kim Was ‘Historic’

‘The reason the summit happened today and North Korea came to the table is because of the combination of tough rhetoric’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

TAFURI: "Well, I’m not skeptical in the sense of what happened today. What happened today was historic. But, we still don’t know if actually Kim Jong-un is going to change. And just like his father, who did a nuclear agreement with President Clinton in 1994, that broke down over the details. In part because North Korea didn’t follow the denuclearization plan. So we have just the first step in a very long process. Now, President Trump candidly acknowledged that to actually denuclearize it will take many years. That's because North Korea has nuclear sites all over the country and we have to send in inspectors and we have to help them denuclearize. Meanwhile, Kim Jong-un wants sanctions relief right away, so he’s not going to be that patient."
