볼턴 "폼페이오, 1차북미정상회담 한달뒤 '성공확률 제로' 선언"

Former U.S. National Security Advisor John Bolton, in his upcoming book, has dropped some shocking bombshells about his time working with President Trump.
And several of Bolton's claims relate directly to the North Korea-U.S. summits.
Our Hong Yoo reports.
One month after the first ever summit between the U.S. and North Korea took place in Singapore, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo allegedly downgraded the possibility of successful diplomacy to "zero".
That's one of the revelations in John Bolton's new book 'The Room Where It Happened'.
It is thought Pompeo would have allegedly made this reevaluation after returning from his third trip to Pyeongyang.
Bolton said he and Pompeo had made fun of the way President Trump led a phone conversation with President Moon Jae-in before the Singapore summit,... and that during that summit, Pompeo passed Bolton a note using strong language to say Trump was talking nonsense.
Bolton also claimed that President Trump asked Chinese leader Xi Jinping to help him get reelected.
He claimed that during the G20 summit in Japan last June, Trump bluntly told Xi Jinping that China buying large amounts of American agricultural products is important for him to win votes in farming states.
When Xi Jinping agreed to resume talks on the matter, Trump allegedly called him the greatest leader of China in the past 300 years.
The Trump administration is in a legal battle with Bolton to stop the publication of the book, saying that it contains classified information that could damage national security.
John Bolton's memoir is scheduled to be published later this month.
