South Korea slammed former White House national security adviser John Bolton for distorting the facts regarding nuclear talks between leaders of the U.S. and the Koreas in his forthcoming memoir.
South Korea’s national security adviser, Chung Eui-yong, said Bolton’s description of top-level consultation in his new book “The Room Where It Happened,” is not accurate.
“It does not reflect accurate facts and substantially distorts facts,” South Korea’s national security adviser, said in a statement, according to Reuters.
He also accused Bolton of "being inaccurate" and "distorting the reality," according to The Washington Post.
According to excerpts of Bolton’s book published by various news outlets, he details conversations before and after three meetings between the U.S., South Korea and North Korea.
Chung said the publication set a “dangerous precedent,” but did not elaborate on specific areas South Korea saw as inaccurate, according to Reuters.
“Unilaterally publishing consultations made based on mutual trust violates the basic principles of diplomacy and could severely damage future negotiations,” he said.

LOL!! It just gets better.
It depends on what the definition of “it” is.
Maybe out of power he can start the wars he wanted.
Perhaps he will be quickly discredited and spare the world the hassle ...
Yes I don’t trust any of the Koreans.
Never ever. Just the way I feel.
Bolton is just like so many in government. Narcissistic, limited, unethical.
>> Just the way I feel.
Fair enough, but I know & trust many South Koreans who are also loving Christians.
bwahaha!
“...Maybe out of power he can start the wars he wanted....”
The statement painted an image of a lonesome Bolton banging on a beer machine in a Tokyo alley at 3AM....he is going to be hurting for international friends....
John Bolton...it’s all about HIM. We’ve probably all met some insufferable a-hole like him. But what he is doing is high-stakes F-over.
I have nothing nice to say about that POS/TRAITOR.
Bolton doesn’t give a crap about the security of the USA. He’s selling it out for his 30 pieces of silver and a chance to stab Trump in the back. After the election is over he’s going to be persona non grata to EVERYONE. Dems hate him, the deep state diplomats hate him, and now Republicans hate him. I guess Bill Kristol and Mitt Romney might have him over for coffee every once in a while but he’ll never hold another job in government.
Bolton busy making a lot of enemies....here and abroad. Bet he doesn’t do a book tour.

I understand. I feel the same about the French, Turks, and Democrats.
THis 15 min fame joker needs to go to prison... with so many lives and strategy at stake, he thinks he can just torch it for his own looks.
Unbelievable. MAkes sense now to see why the like of BUshes are so stuck on stupid too regarding Trump
