Jon Wolfsthal, a senior fellow with the CSIS International Security Program, was quoted by the New York Times, "A Diplomatic Success That Defies the Critics."
WASHINGTON — North Korea’s declaration of its nuclear activities is a triumph of the sort of diplomacy — complicated, plodding, often frustrating — that President Bush and his aides once eschewed as American weakness.
“The last six months in the administration is the wrong time to present these ideas,” said Jon Wolfsthal, a proliferation expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, who credited the president for his evolution on North Korea and other issues.
