Trump warns Kim Jong Un: If you don't accept a deal, you end up like Gaddafi.

US President Donald Trump has directly threatened Kim Jong-un that he will suffer the same fate as Muammar Gaddhafi, if the North Korean leader does not accept “an agreement” on the communist country's isolated nuclear weapons programme. The head of the United States issued this warning from the White House when asked by reporters in [...]

The head of the United States issued this warning from the White House when it was asked by reporters about the latest suggestion given by National Security adviser John Bolton, that the Libyan “model” should be the model for the North Korean agreement during the historic summit between Trump and Kim, scheduled for June 12th in Singapore.

The model that Bolton referred to was Gaddafi's agreement in December 2003 to deliver the embryoal nuclear weapons program, which included allowing uranium cythrifuges to move to the U.S.

But, Trump appears to have been unaware of this agreement, and interpreted the Libyan “ ” model to imply NATO's military intervention in 2011 in Libya in support of a uprising, which led to Gaddafi's murder by the rebels in Tripoli.

“Model, if you refer to him with Gaddafi, was a total execution. We went there to break it. Now, that model can be repeated again if we don't make a deal, which is most likely to happen. But if we reach a pact, I think Kim Jong will be very, very happy”, Trump said.

Asked whether his comments imply that he has not agreed with the National Security adviser, the third on the line in his administration, the president said:

I think, when John Bolton made that statement, he was speaking in case we had any problems, because we cannot allow that country to have nuclear arsenal. We just can't-

Inflammatory comments come at a time when the June summit is being questioned. Pennyan's regime reacted harshly to Bolton's statements over the weekend, which insisted that North Korea should dismantle its nuclear arsenal completely and urgently.

However, in his words on Thursday, Trump stressed that Kim Jong-un would receive full assurances of his safety if he agreed to disarm.
