That's plausible, but I'm going to take the Occam's razor view that Pence and Bolton made ham-fisted remarks. If there was cause to delay because the globalists plants retain too much power in the region, there are better ways to convey that message.
And too, maybe Kim is conveying that message to Trump, by not allowing his people to show for the prep meetings. Somebody is pulling those strings. Maybe the Kim family, maybe Kim family handlers or opposing forces that are aiming to take the leader's place.
Unfortunately, Kim took the “Libyan Model” to mean what was done to Qaddafi by Obama\Clinton.
I’m pretty sure Bolton meant the deal given to Qaddafi by Bush\Rice in 2003-2004.
Not too many have brought up that distinction.
So a poor choice of words with no explanation kills talks ?
Just shoot me.
