Good argument on his part.
The Euros like that idea.

Oh that’s reassuring... I mean, North Korea has such a stellar track record of keeping their word... ;-/
I wouldn’t trust the Euroweenies......
North Korea will start trouble with any country that writes them fat checks and then stops.
And Europe reply’s, OK
The US today and Europe tomorrow.
NATO is done. The only thing that matters now is the United States and Canada, we’re attached at the hip. I’d even further narrow it down to USA and western Canada. Screw the east side, they’re leeches.
