We have developed a program. I am sure that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will be discussing this with the North Koreans in the near future about really how to dismantle all of their( weapons of mass destruction) and ballistic missile programs in a year.

We have now liberated the Twitter account, previously suppressed unfairly in the aftermath of my resignation as National Security Advisor, in full disclosure, the @WhiteHouse never returned access to my Twitter account. Thank you to @twitter for standing by their community standards and rightfully returning control of my account.

Right now we are in a classic standoff with North Korea, they want a piece of something that we should not be prepared to give them.

These are questions that need to focus our attention, not 'can we get another summit with Kim Jong Un' or 'what the state of staff-level negotiations are to achieve a commitment from North Korea it will never honor.

That's not an encouraging sign. That's a sign to be worried about... by John Bolton

That's not an encouraging sign. That's a sign to be worried about.

Time works against those who oppose nuclear proliferation and a relaxed attitude to time is a benefit to the likes of North Korea and Iran.

The experience that these incumbent members of Congress have provides them with a remarkable understanding and knowledge of the threats we face from international terrorism and rogue regimes such as Iran and North Korea.

If that's the decision of the British government we will support it enthusiastically, and that's what I'm trying to convey. We're with you, we're with you.

The fashion in the European Union: When the people vote the wrong way from the way the elites want to go, it's to make the peasants vote again and again until they get it right.

The president has held the door open to real negotiations to completely and verifiably eliminate Iran's nuclear weapons program, its pursuit of ballistic missile delivery systems, its support for international terrorism and other malign behavior worldwide, all that Iran needs to do is to walk through that open door.

Iran's continued pursuit of nuclear weapons, its threats to exceed the limits set in the failed Iran nuclear deal in the coming days ... are not signs of a nation seeking peace, sanctions are biting, and more added last night.

Neither Iran nor any other hostile actor should mistake U.S. prudence and discretion for weakness. No one has granted them a hunting license in the Middle East.

The United States is not seeking war with the Iranian regime. by John Bolton

The United States is not seeking war with the Iranian regime.

What they've said was that they're not going to test ballistic missiles, intercontinental range ballistic missiles, or have nuclear tests. That's continued. They're doing a lot of other things that still indicate that they have not made a strategic decision to give up the pursuit of deliverable weapons, which is why we continue the maximum pressure campaign.

I'm not sure that this decision has reached the prime ministerial level in final form. I mean we are still talking, people are talking back and forth.

5G really is not so easily divisible into core elements and peripheral elements, how much risk are you prepared to accept that a foreign power is reading your mail all the time at their will?

Everybody is catching up to the dangers posed, especially in 5th-generation telecommunications systems, by equipment from Huawei and potentially others that can allow foreign governments a back door into telecommunications systems.

I think it is clear these (tanker attacks) were naval mines almost certainly from Iran, there is no doubt in anybody's mind in Washington who is responsible for this and I think it's important that the leadership in Iran know that we know.

We are very concerned about the Quds Force and Qassem Soleimani using Shi'ite militia groups and others in Iraq as indirect ways to attack our embassy in Baghdad, consulate in Erbil, our various bases around the country.
