John Bolton Says North Korea Needs to Make “Significant Sign” They Plan to Denuclearize Before Sanctions Relief

North Korea needs to take a “significant” step toward abandoning its nuclear weapons in order to get sanctions relief from the United States, U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton has said.
In an interview with The Washington Times published Friday, Bolton indicated that U.S. President Donald Trump is ready to lift the sanctions on Pyongyang if the regime will signal its sincerity about giving up its nuclear arsenal.
“What we need from North Korea is a significant sign of a strategic decision to give up nuclear weapons and it is when we get that denuclearization that the president can begin to take the sanctions off,” he said.

Neither Trump nor Bolton is a Clinton/Bush/Obama patsy for global statists.

The existing nukes need to be shipped out of North Korea to be dismantled.

I think we’ll see something new pretty soon. Or Trump will end up being a minor footnote in History.

After Pelosi beat Trump like a drum last week, KJU knows Trump is a wuss who will not order a pre-emptive strike on the DPRK.

Pelosi cut Trump’s balls off last week, just like Rocky has no balls at Bldg 1 Ft Strewart. Trump’s a wuss , he has no balls.
