And were talking about u.n. la -- unilateral dismantlement. well see what happens if we can narrow this gap. >> you look at this assessment based on reporting of my colleagues. there is a load of moderate confidence in what we know. this has been the challenge of dealing with this country. it is a hard country to read. are we getting better at it? as president trump goes into this meeting, how confident should he be in the sense of what the regime is willing to do? >> right now i dont think we h...

Highly professional and well capable team. >> hopefully he will let them in and let them do their work without any guidelines or stipulations. there are other conditions obviously to the deal. there are so many. including getting china and russia to participate. >> yes, exactly. its been interesting to me to watch the last elements of the conditions setting. frankly by both of the participants. and it occurred to me that to watch what kim has done with some meetings with the president of china o...

On the korean peninsula, but the summit is not going to resolve any of the critical details concerning the timetable, what phasing would look like, reciprocity, verification and so forth. all of that really difficult work will be left for negotiators after the summit. weve learned in the past north korea is prepared to make these broad commitments of denuclearization but in the past have never been willing to carry them out. >> is there a unified definition of denuclearization? is the u.s. defin...

Reason hes not playing ball is hes holding out for the president to pardon him. thats his ace in the hole. if you know the president is going to pardon you, why are you allegedly working with a co-spon spir tor to influence testimony to make it seem like you did nothing wrong. it makes me step back and say, wait a second. i thought the reason hes not playing ball with his liberty, go to jail forever, forfeit your provisions and hes saying the reason the president will pardon him. if youre trying...
