Mike Pompeo hails Trump's diplomatic success on North Korea

CIA Director Mike Pompeo hailed President Trump’s decision to tighten the sanction noose around North Korea, calling the “maximum pressure campaign” the reason why Kim Jong Un is willing to come to the negotiating table.

“President Trump took a different tack entirely. He put an enormous global allied supported pressure campaign on the North Koreans, that has had a real impact on the regime, on the North Korean economy, and has caused Kim Jong Un to reach out and say he wants to begin to have discussions on terms that the United States has never achieved before,” Pompeo said on CBS’ “Face the Nation” Sunday.
