Pelosi calls for new approach to North Korea
From CNN Ticker Producer Alex Mooney
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-California, suggesting the Bush Administration's policy toward North Korea has "clearly failed," urged President Bush to immediately appoint a high-level coordinator for North Korean policy. "That appointment should be made immediately and other nations whose policies on North Korea have also so clearly failed, like China, must urgently develop new approaches as well," said Pelosi in a statement, in which she also noted that a recent Defense Department authorization bill required the president appoint someone to the post. |
