jenny town, let me begin with you. in your opinion, why do you think this fell apart? >> i think the rea challenge started when john bolton made the comments starting to talk about the libya model. we all know how libya turned out. if you are north korea receiving those messages, you know, you've gotten the sense that the u.s. wants thisocess to be very quick. they want it to be, you know, the security guarantees on paper. and, younow, without changing the actual nature of our political relationship. so if you're north looking at this as sort of a veiled threat, and then the president following up afterwards by saying, oh, if you don't make a dea you will end up like libya. oftentimes the north korsaeans before they're not going to negotiate with a gun to their head. soiohere is really the beh that they've shown in the past couple of days and past couple of weeks is really predictabvel, the way that they have been treated. >> ambassall, is this about the libya model and the administration's use of it or is there also a substantive disagreement about t nature of denucle

jenny town is a specialist in korean affairs.of 38 north and research analyst at the stimson center. it was all going so well. this meeting was definitely going to happen. now donald trump coming out and saying maybe not. what is going on? i think this is somewhat of a made for tv summit process and i think the cliffhanger clues should be more expected than not. i think there probably has been some bumps along the way, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the summit is off. there is still a lot at stake here. no one ever said it would be easy, it is just quite unusual that so easy, it is just quite unusual that so much of this is being played out in public. it is great for people like me and you to talk about it, but for the actual process itself, quite surprising. some saying that donald trump was a bit naive in so readily agreeing to the summit without some of the details being worked out beforehand. is certainly makes it more difficult it is this is not the type of diplomacy that we are used to. normally you would work out all
