Pompeo: U.S. to lift sanctions on North Korea if it meets demands

Posted by Media Bias Fact Check

Speaking on several Sunday morning talk shows, Pompeo said the United States would not be willing to invest taxpayer dollars to help the country, but was willing to “lift sanctions” to pave the way for private American investment in North Korea’s energy, agriculture and infrastructure sectors.

“Every single site that the North Koreans have that can inflict risk on the American people that is destroyed, eliminated, dismantled is good news for the American people and for the world,” he said on “Fox News Sunday.” “The prospect for North Korea is for it to become a normal nation, to behave and interact with the rest of the world the way South Korea does,” White House National Security Adviser John Bolton said on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, adding that prospects for the country are “unbelievably strong” if it follows through on its commitment.
