John Bolton: 'I Don't Want to See Anybody Else Get Nuclear Weapons' ‐ Even Our Allies
With talk of nuclear proliferation heating up within the Republican presidential primary, Former UN Ambassador and AEI scholar John Bolton made his position very clear to Breitbart News Daily host Stephen K. Bannon: "In terms of letting other countries get nuclear weapons, I have a very clear view and that is, I don't want to see anybody else get nuclear weapons, whether they’re friends of ours, or not." As for nuclear weapons, their deployment and command and control, Bolton also expressed strong feelings, saying, "The reason people are even talking about countries like South Korea or Japan getting nuclear weapons is because they think under Obama, our nuclear umbrella is disappearing and that, if we’re not going to provide that deterrent capability, they need to provide it for themselves. The strongest argument against other countries getting weapons is, we're going to take care of that. Underneath that umbrella, countries like Japan and South Korea do have an obligation, I think, to do more than they're doing now. Obama doesn't push them, or encourage them to do that because he doesn't care about our national security, or that of our allies, either." Posted by: Blossom Unains5562 2016-04-02 |
