William R. Richardson: “This president wants a surge in the war in Iraq. I want a surge on the war on cancer.”

His main objective is to stay in power, more so than detente with the United States.

But the sanctions that have, I think, bitten--that bite the most have been the coal, the uranium, the oil sanctions that are imposed now by the U.N.

I would say to this administration, for instance, they are obsessed with having South Korea pay more for the military relationship that we have.

I think what the administration needs to do, first of all, yes, find a way to publicly state what we know. Get the facts, make sure that the facts are 100 percent.
