Scott Taylor: ‘I Applaud’ Trump for Engaging in Multilateral Talks with Our Allies

EXCERPT:

TAYLOR: "Let me first say that I applaud the President for engaging in multilateral talks with our allies over there as well as China and trying to bring them in there. I’m not one to bluster and saber rattle and all those things. North Korea has a history of doing that. They have been doing that for a while now, most of the time trying to gain concessions from us. The last thing we want is war. There's no doubt about that. We want peace. The situation is tense over there. But I am encouraged by the White House, quite frankly, for engaging in these multilateral talks. Something does have to be done over there. They continue to take the finger and poke you in the eye and say, 'We’re not touching you,' but shooting missiles off the coast of our allies and also chest beating there as well and continuing to do nuclear tests as well as trying to get intercontinental ballistic missiles that could touch our homeland. We don’t want them shooting waters off the coast of California, of course. That being said, it is tense and I applaud the multilateral talks to try to tamp down on the tensions."
