Report: All Biden Administration Attempts to Contact North Korea Have Failed
Breitbart ^ | 3/15/2021 | frances martel

Posted on 03/15/2021 11:03:51 AM PDT by bitt

Unnamed alleged officials in the administration of President Joe Biden confessed to Reuters this weekend that attempts to communicate with the communist regime of North Korea since Biden took office have been met with silence.

Reuters, citing the officials, claimed the Biden administration used several traditional “behind-the-scenes” avenues to reach out to dictator Kim Jong-un in an attempt to rekindle diplomatic talks, but Pyongyang did not respond to any of them. Since Biden’s inauguration, North Korean state media — often the only metric for gauging regime sentiment in the highly secretive country — has largely ceased referring to the United States in general, outside of its typically belligerent attacks in columns about the still ongoing Korean War. One state media outlet, the relatively obscure DPRK Today, has referred to Biden as president, but the two biggest outlets — the state newspaper Rodong Sinmun and the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) — have not done so.

Prior to his presidency, state media routinely attacked Biden as a “dotard” and enemy of Pyongyang. In one particularly severe condemnation, KCNA urged the American people to kill Biden, addressing him as a “rabid dog.”

In contrast, the North Korean state appeared more cooperative with Biden’s predecessor, President Donald Trump. Trump met with Kim Jong-un in person on two occasions — the first sitting American president to hold a summit with a North Korean dictator — and maintained regular communication with the regime. The talks yielded no significant policy achievements, but North Korea ceased its nuclear weapons testing after the Trump administration led an international sanctions campaign in response to its last test in 2017.

Korea has no respect for idiots.
Which means that Slow Joe has even less respect than that.

Biden is a weak leader. No reason to deal with him.

Joe - “Kim, I’m as tough as Trump! Can I come over and strut around over on the North Korea side?

Kim - “No, If you do the squirrels will add you to their nut collection.”
