… We’ve seen even Burma saying that they’re going to enforce the resolution of sanctions.”Ĭlinton began by saying: “What’s important here is the clear message that we’re sending to North Korea. “They are very isolated now,” she continued. So it’s not only the threat they pose to their neighbors, and eventually beyond, but the fact that they’re trying to arm others.”Ĭlinton was asked if the effort to keep North Korea from going nuclear has failed: “No, I don’t think so, because their program is still at the beginning stages.” “It’s not only that North Korea has, against the international norms … proceeded with this effort, but they also are a proliferator,” she said.

“But I do my physical therapy - that was what everybody told me I had to do.”Īppearing live for the full hour, Clinton continued her increasingly tough talk on North Korea, saying: “They’ve engaged in a lot of provocative action in the last months. “There are certain moves that I can make, but there are others that are still kind of painful,” she said. “This is a subject that is on the minds of people literally around the world,” Clinton said.Ībout a run for herself, she said: “I have absolutely no belief in my mind that that is going to happen.”Ĭlinton said her right elbow is still recovering after a fall last month. … People that go back millennia, that have such a great culture and history, deserve better than what they’re getting.”Ĭlinton chuckled heartily when Gregory played a clip of her being asked overseas if she would ever be U.S. “I have been moved by the … cries for freedom. “You know, that’s really for the people of Iran to decide,” Clinton said. Gregory asked if Iran is run by an illegitimate regime. We would hope that there is more openness, that peaceful demonstrations are respected, that press freedom is respected.”
But, clearly, we would hope better for the Iranian people. That’s up to the internal dynamic within a society.
Look at all the negotiations that went on with the Soviet Union. “We have negotiated with many governments who we did not believe represented the will of their people. would be betraying Iran’s democratic movement if the administration decides to negotiate with the government over its nuclear program. Moderator David Gregory asked Clinton if the U.S. We believe, as a matter of policy, it is unacceptable for Iran to have nuclear weapons.”Īs a security summit in Thailand earlier this week, Clinton raised the possibility of a “defense umbrella” over the Middle East to protect other nations from a nuclear-armed Iran, marking the first time a senior administration official has publicly broached the prospect of the Persian nation succeeding in building a nuclear weapon.Ĭlinton said the Obama administration might still engage with Iran’s regime, even though she thinks the people there “deserve better than what they’re getting.” But your pursuit is futile, because we will never let Iran - nuclear-armed, not nuclear-armed - it is something that we view with great concern, and that’s why we’re doing everything we can to prevent that from ever happening. “First, we’re going to do everything we can to prevent you from ever getting a nuclear weapon. “What we want to do is to send a message to whoever is making these decisions, that if you’re pursuing nuclear weapons for the purpose of intimidating, of projecting your power, we’re not going to let that happen,” Clinton said.
