The former secretary of state also addresses the outcome of the French election and upcoming testimony to Congress by Sally Yates<\/b>
\nFormer Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Monday that North Korean ruler Kim Jong Un may be \u00ab\u00a0a little unhinged.\u00a0\u00bb
In an interview with \u00ab\u00a0CBS This Morning, \u00a0\u00bb Rice was asked what she thinks North Korea is trying to accomplish by detaining another U. S. citizen over the weekend. She said that they’re trying to send a message that they’re powerful, strong and can make the U. S. suffer.
\u00ab\u00a0This is not a situation that any president can tolerate, \u00a0\u00bb Rice said, adding that \u00ab\u00a0something has to be done\u00a0\u00bb to stop North Korea’s nuclear ambitions.
\u00ab\u00a0I think he is reckless and maybe even a little unhinged, \u00a0\u00bb she said, referring to Kim Jong-Un.
Rice, who’s out with a new book, \u00ab\u00a0Democracy: Stories from the Long Road to Freedom, \u00a0\u00bb said that despite Mr. Trump’s comment last week that he could meet with Kim in person, she said the U. S. president can’t do that.
Speaking about the election of Emmanuel Macron as the next French president Sunday, Rice called it \u00ab\u00a0good news, \u00a0\u00bb but warned that the issues that have brought far-right, populist candidates like Marine Le Pen to the forefront still exist.
\u00ab\u00a0I think we can see even centrist candidates are shifting their tones in response to the populists, \u00a0\u00bb she said.
She also addressed the upcoming testimony to Congress Monday by former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and what should be asked of her regarding the case involving former National Security Adviser Gen. Michael Flynn.
Rice said, \u00ab\u00a0We do need to understand what was going on before the inauguration of the president\u00a0\u00bb in January. She said it’s \u00ab\u00a0not unusual for transition officials to meet with foreign dignitaries and ambassadors, but she said, \u00ab\u00a0You can’t discuss policy and you can’t discuss that you might change policy.\u00a0\u00bb
