Flashback:1994:Clinton “North Korea will freeze and then dismantle its nuclear program"

[tinydancer]

Remember this moment in time? Anyone in the media out there trying to get a quote from President Clinton right now?

Something about feeding a crocodile comes to mind.....


“This is a good deal for the United States,” he said at the time. “North Korea will freeze and then dismantle its nuclear program. South Korea and our other allies will be better protected. The entire world will be safer as we slow the spread of nuclear weapons.”

FLASHBACK 1994: Clinton Says His Deal With North Korea Would Make The World Safer

​

 

[whitehall]

Bill Clinton claimed "the entire world will be safer" right after he sold nuclear technology and hardware to N.K.

What about his assertion that allowing China into the WTO would improve their human rights. America now has it's biggest rival in history.

 

[JGalt]

Clinton gave two new reactors and over $4 billion dollars to the NORKs.

Here's the original 1994 article from the NY Times:

CLINTON APPROVES A PLAN TO GIVE AID TO NORTH KOREANS

 

[NYcarbineer]

Since Trump is insisting that anything good happening now is his doing, and to his credit,

then let's in fairness place the blame on him for anything bad happening now.

LOL.

Is that the best you can do? Or are you afraid to acknowledge the failure of "diplomacy" regarding North Korea? They don't seem to be responding to words anymore, they are more likely going to be swayed by action.

Clinton made this mistake in 1994 with N.K.

Obama made the same mistake with Iran a couple of years ago.

The OP is quite current, and YOU aren't the forum police. Capisce?

How is 23 years ago giving an enemy the tools to incinerate you today, not "current"?

1940's Nazis wanted to kill your Grandparents, does that mean Nazis are ok today?

It is current. Floppy ears put us on the same path with Iran just a year or so ago. You people really do ignore history.

Every president has tried to keep NK from obtaining nukes. Clinton was no different.

If you want to be current, you need to understand just how difficult this has been. It's not any one president's fault. They've all failed.

BULLSHIT......as usual..........Clinton's deal would have worked but was revoked in 2002-3 by the GWB administration.....


In 1994, the Clinton administration and North Korea signed an agreed framework that froze Pyongyang’s nuclear program and aimed to normalize US-North Korean relations. The agreement targeted many of the issues that the two sides continue to grapple with – but it soon ran into problems, and ultimately broke down in 2002.

The deal in 1994 called for

• By 2003, a US-led consortium would build two light-water nuclear reactors in North Korea to compensate for the loss of nuclear power
• Until then, the US would supply the north with 500,000 tons per year of heavy fuel
• The US would lift sanctions, remove North Korea from its list of state sponsors of terrorism, and – perhaps most importantly – normalise the political relationship, which is still subject to the terms of the 1953 Korean War armistice
• Finally, both sides would provide “formal assurances” against the threat or use of nuclear weapons

But on its own pledges, by 2002 Washington failed to follow through..

I guess since Clinton was lying, it is okay for Trump to lie. And a lot more.

 

[nat4900]

FAR from a defense of the nut job, Kim Jun Un, when our own beloved GWB labeled them part of his "axis of evil," HOW exactly did we expect NK to react......In fairness, when did a North Korean suicide bomber blow himself up taking American lives with him???

It was a full of shit statement last century and today.

 

[tinydancer]

North Korea suckered Obama just a couple of years ago....

"In return for food aid from the United States, North Korea has agreed to stop nuclear activity at its main facility in Yongbyon, both countries said Wednesday.
North Korea has also agreed to a moratorium on long-range missile launches.

"Today's announcement represents a modest first step in the right direction," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said. "We, of course, will be watching closely and judging North Korea's new leaders by their actions."

Wednesday's news might be the most encouraging since 2008, when six-party talks last broke down over North Korea's nuclear program. Since then, there has been tension and uncertainty, including a nuclear test in 2009 and the death of longtime leader Kim Jong Il in 2011"

Case in point. Diplomacy has been rendered moot. The reason for using it has passed. They have nukes, they have miniaturized nukes, and they are threatening other countries with them, including us! The time for speaking softly has passed, it is time to pick up the big stick.

Fast forward to the Iran deal and then re-examine the Democrat / liberal / progressive philosophy. They are doing a great job of spreading the weapons they say they are trying to get rid of.
