Tensions continue to intensify as North Korea recently fired another missile. That missile passed over Japan and landed into the sea.
The White House has been trying for many years to control North Korea. At present nothing much has changed despite efforts to stop their nuclear program.
For many years America has given North Korea aid packages and food to curb its behavior. Regardless of this assistance they have not complied to any demands.
Worst yet is the many threats from Kim Jong-un. He has threatened to hit the U.S mainland and Guam. Now that North Korea has shown their capabilities, all eyes are on them.
Trump’s Say
The President believes that talking to the North Koreans is a waste of time. He hasn’t been specific about what he means by talking isn’t enough.
Some think that the President has some sort of action in mind. This however is only speculation and doesn’t determine anything.
The statement has caused concern from Denmark’s leadership. They said “if the President has made up his mind against talks with North Korea that should be the end of the conversation.”
Denmark made its feelings clear as they continued to comment about the situation. “This dramatically undercuts the State Department. Any offer of talks to North Korea has zero credibility if the President is not on board.”
Bruce Klingner, a former CIA deputy division chief for Korea believes pressure is the only option. He said that negotiations have come to a point that is rendered useless.
He said “the administration is affirming what every new administration has said. Negotiations have been tried and they have failed.”
