Reuters: South Korea says Bolton's memoir on Trump-Kim summit is distorted
SEOUL (Reuters) - Accounts by former U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton of discussions between leaders of the United States and the two Koreas in his upcoming book are inaccurate and distorted, South Korea said on Monday.
Bolton gives details in the book of conversations before and after three meetings between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, including how their second summit in Vietnam fell apart.
The book, “The Room Where It Happened: A White House Memoir”, is scheduled for publication on Tuesday but media outlets have released excerpts.
Reports have cited Bolton as writing that Moon, who is keen to improve relations with North Korea, had raised unrealistic expectations with both Kim and Trump for his own “unification” agenda.
“It does not reflect accurate facts and substantially distorts facts,” South Korea’s national security adviser, Chung Eui-yong, said in a statement referring to Bolton’s description of top-level consultations.
Chung did not elaborate on specific areas South Korea saw as inaccurate but said the publication set a “dangerous precedent”.

Update: South Korea Lashes Out at John Bolton Book Over North Korea Claims (Newsweek)
WNU Editor: I am still waiting for former U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton to produce the note which he claims Secretary of State Pompeo gave to him when they met Kim Jong-un in Singapore saying the whole thing was shit .... Pompeo mocked Trump as being 'full of s--t' during his meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, according to John Bolton's new book (Business Insider). Someone emailed me over the weekend John Bolton's book, and I had the chance to browse through it. I have gone through the first one hundred pages (it is 570 pages long), and I am enjoying reading it. The book naturally centres around John Bolton, and his take on what he saw when he was in the White House. Now is it true. John Bolton believes it is true, but I have my doubts. Long time readers of this blog know that I never trusted John Bolton, and I certainly never felt comfortable with his foreign policy views and agenda. And this book certainly exposes where he wants America in the world today .... which in my opinion would be a disaster if implemented. President Trump has made a lot of errors in hiring people. This is definitely one of them. Thank God he did not take his advice or direction.
