RUSH EXCERPT: MCSHANE: "Let’s get reaction, analysis. Gordon Chang, author of among other books, nuclear showdown, North Korea takes on the world. Rich broke the down nicely. What do you think is it going on here?" CHANG: "Essentially the North Koreans don’t want to give up their nukes of course. They mentioned John Bolton in those statements that is not really the reason. Bolton gave Libya model comments at end of April on Sunday talk show. Last week the North Koreans released three Americans. So you know ifer upset at Bolton they would not have let those guys go. I think they’re really concerned about what happened during the meetings when Pompeo was in North Korea, talked to Kim Jong-un, asked the North Koreans to give up four or five weapons as a show of sincerity. And North Koreans said of course no. Now, it is up to the united States to impose those costs not only on North Korea but on Russia and China to force them to do what they don’t want to do."
