"I don't think any American president can tolerate that leader with the capacity to reach the United States," said Rice, referring to dictator Kim Jong Un, The Hill reports.
Rice, 62, who served in the George W. Bush administration, made her comments at the Library of Congress' Book Festival in Washington.
"What the administration is trying to do — and I support what they're trying to do — is they're painting a very bleak picture for the Chinese," she said. "That's the only country with any real leverage on the North Koreans."
Rice explained that Beijing remains reluctant to intervene out of fears North Korea could collapse and create a refugee crisis on their border, the Hill reports.
"We're getting pretty close to a president having to make a decision."

ReplyDeleteI think that Condi is the first "Most Powerful Black Woman in Politics", not Michelle Obama. She actually made something of herself and not married into it! She is well-educated, smart and a patriot. I would like to see her back in DC or on a ticket for VP or P someday.
