WASHINGTON - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Wednesday that U.S. talks with North Korea would be “bumpy,” but expressed hope there would be several more chances to discuss how to move forward to the country’s denuclearization.
The outcome hinged ultimately on whether North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made the strategic decision to give up his country’s nuclear weapons, Pompeo said. Pompeo said that in Hanoi, “there was a lot more nuance to the conversation than just, ‘Hey they had a position, we had a position; we walked away.’”
On Wednesday, Kim arrived in Vladivostok, Russia, for a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
But...
Trump is a pathological liar and a conman who cannot be trusted. Only fools make deals with Donald Trump.
Keep trump out of the whole thing and maybe you may be able to do some good for the American people.
Trump & Pompeo have always said this was a multiple meeting type of affair & it would take time. Even if a deal is met, it will take more than a decade to clear out all NK’s nuclear weapons.
Clown
Oh please this is a sham.
What a joke
They are being played like a bunch of juniors. They are being laughed at right now at the Kremlin by Kim and Putin.
SecPompeo I think the Secretary needs to remove himself from discussion and negotiation with North Korea. The other party doesn't want this man on the table, no one trusts Pompeo except Netanyahu.
Pomy you're being made a fool of again by Korea
When dealing with ignorance it is proper to go slowly, but firmly.
We will give you two choices because that’s what everyone else has decided without asking for your opinion regardless your opinion has the most weight... 🙄🤔
Umm has anyone told Mike that Kim is having talks with Trump's buddy in Russia as we speak? I'm pretty sure North Korea is over the circus in the White House now.
NK is talking to Russia now, and Russia's interests vis a vis nukes is the complete opposite of ours
Let’s hope Mike just waits for the adults in the next administration to try.
Haha you blew Putin's in the driving seat now
They are stalling for time and you know it.
