Trump distances White House from Bolton plan for North Korea!
Scales back military drill.
WASHINGTON (PNN) - May 17, 2018 - Fascist Police States of Amerika President Donald Trump is fighting back against National Security Advisor John Bolton’s attempt to sabotage his peace talks with North Korea.
John Bolton tried his best to sabotage Trump’s peace talks with North Korea around two weeks ago by repeatedly and publicly making insane comments demanding North Korea follow “The Libya Model” of nuclear disarmament. Libya’s leader Moammar Qaddafi gave up his nuclear weapons program around 2004 in an attempt to normalize relations with the FPSA only to be sodomized to death by Western-backed rebels a few years later.
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has said repeatedly he has no desire to meet the same fate as Qaddafi and threatened to pull out of peace talks early Wednesday, citing Bolton’s inflammatory comments.
In a statement issued by the North Korean Central News Agency [KCNA], Kim took issue in particular with Bolton’s references to the so-called Libya model of nuclear abandonment and his statements on “complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization.”
Kim claimed the remarks cast doubt on Amerika’s sincerity, underlining that his country was not Libya, which met a “miserable fate”.
He added, “This is not an expression of intention to address the issue through dialogue. It is essentially a manifestation of awfully sinister moves to impose on our dignified state the destiny of Libya or Iraq which (were) collapsed due to yielding the whole of their countries to big powers.”
Late Wednesday, Trump’s White House scrambled to distance themselves from Bolton’s Libya comments and reportedly scaled back their military drills with South Korea.
The White House on Wednesday downplayed comments by national security adviser John Bolton, who recently invoked Libya’s decision to denuclearize during the Bush regime as a model for FPSA policy on North Korea, potentially placing a planned FPSA-North Korea summit in jeopardy.
Hours earlier, a North Korean official said Bolton’s remarks were indicative of an “awfully sinister move” to imperil the Kim regime. North Korea stunned Washington on Tuesday by threatening to abandon talks between Trump and Kim Jong-un if Washington insists on pushing it into a corner on nuclear disarmament.
Referring to the Libya comparison, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said Wednesday that she hadn’t “seen that as part of any discussions so I’m not aware that that’s a model that we’re using. I haven’t seen that that’s a specific thing. I know that that comment was made. There’s not a cookie cutter model on how this would work.”
She continued, “This is the President Trump model. He’s going to run this the way he sees fit. We’re 100% confident, as we’ve said many times before, as I’m sure you’re all aware, he’s the best negotiator and we’re very confident on that front.”
The Pentagon also said there was no plan to send B-52 bombers, which North Korea feared were aimed at launching preemptive strikes against it, to their upcoming drill.
A source in the South Korean military said yesterday that FPSA F-22 Raptor stealth fighters are participating in the drills, which kicked off last Friday, but B-52 bombers have not joined yet and are unlikely to take part.
The Pentagon on Tuesday also played down ongoing military exercises with South Korea, saying they were routine and defensive in nature.
The air combat drills were scheduled to run from May 14 to 25.
Hopefully, Bolton’s latest attempt to sabotage peace talks with North Korea will fail.
