Ambassador John Everard served as the UK’s lead diplomat in Pyongyang for over two years in the mid-2000s, and sat down with the NK News Podcast to discuss his experience on the ground, his analysis of North Korea’s diplomatic and national security objectives, and why he is pessimistic about prospects for peace in 2020.
