“Once again, as with Iran, we have an adversary seeking direct talks with the U.S. government, and once again the Bush Administration refuses to hold such talks,†said Kevin Martin, Executive Director of Peace Action Education Fund. “Does Bush know what the word ‘diplomacy’ means? How can he say he is taking all possible steps to prevent conflicts, and yet adamantly refuse the most basic step, which is to talk, without preconditions, to one’s adversary?â€
Martin continued: “All the ideas that have come out of the Bush Administration so far, including expanded “missile defense”, ending humanitarian aid to North Korea, expanding NATO and encouraging Japan to develop nuclear weapons - are sure to isolate and anger North Korea and China and further de-stabilize the region. What is needed is calm, smart diplomacy, for which the Bush Administration has shown zero aptitude in its six years in office.â€
