Bolton Warns North Korea that Restarting Missile Testing Will “Not Be A Good Idea”

Hopefully North Korea heeds John Bolton’s warning:

John Bolton, the U.S. national security adviser, warned that North Korea resuming its nuclear and missile testing will “not be a good idea” in a radio interview Sunday. 

Responding to North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui’s recent remarks critical of Washington, Bolton told the WNYM radio in New York, “They issued an unhelpful statement that they’re thinking of going back to nuclear and ballistic missile testing, which would not be a good idea on their part.” 

Last Friday, Choe said Pyongyang may suspend further denuclearization negotiations with the Washington, and that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un could rethink the country’s moratorium on nuclear and missile tests. 

Notably, Choe blamed Bolton and U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo for creating an “atmosphere of hostility and mistrust” that “obstructed” the negotiation efforts by the two countries leaders.
