The memoirs of the former White House National Security Adviser Bolton, which reveals indescribable secrets to both the Democratic and Republican parties, who are inconvenient to Bolton's'floating gold', are creating a megaton wave that will remain among diplomatic security agents around the world. A lot of articles are pouring in, but the media is still hot because it contains a huge amount of diplomatic secrets so that you can report on every page of the book. The real name memoir of the White House diplomatic and security staff shortly after retirement has sparked much interest.

A former Bolton aide has also appeared in the American media in line with the publication of the book. In addition to promoting the book, he devotes a lot of time to the legitimacy of the book. However, looking into the background, the democratic and republican parties in the United States are all uncomfortable with the publication of Bolton's memoirs.

It's a book that criticized President Trump, and you might think that the Democrats should like it, but the atmosphere is agitated. Bolton eventually did not respond to the impeachment hearing against President Trump, where the Democratic Party had struggled. Bolton was the best person to testify to the Ukrainian scandal, which was the reason for impeachment. The Democratic Party objected to a court ruling saying it should not be called to summon witnesses in the House of Representatives. Eventually, the attendance of the impeachment hearing ended unintentionally. At that time, if Bolton came to the hearing, history may have changed. Democrats are still in a bad mood for Bolton, who is now Trump sniper. US media reports that Bolton received $2 million in taxes while writing his memoirs, and Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi criticized Bolton for making money rather than patriotism.

Bolton is a Republican, and he has a critical view of the Democratic Party. President Trump is also criticized here, so there is little room for the Democratic Party to work with him to pursue something. The House of Representatives or the Judges can summon him before the presidential election to remind him of the president's misconduct, but it's hard to imagine more than that. What's more, even if you call Bolton to a Congressional hearing, if Republicans ask, it is very likely that Bolton will be more critical of the Democratic Party's foreign security policy.

Even in the Republican Party, former Bolton aides are almost rebels. Shortly before the presidential election, the memoirs weren't enough, and Bolton is actually campaigning through media interviews, so Republicans will not lack the expression of traitors. When Bolton appeared in Fox News, which was friendly to President Trump, watching the unpleasant question pour out, I could feel the atmosphere changed.

● "Criminal punishment for leaking confidentiality"… Bolton's security memorandum actually turns out


When the US Department of Justice filed a lawsuit to prevent Bolton from publishing the memoirs, the parties filed the records with the court, which they obtained and reviewed. Trial records were vividly testifying to what had happened until the publication of this book. Although the litigation record is stiff, the arguments of both sides are expressed in dry language, which is often helpful in identifying the reality of the case.

Most notable was Bolton's confidentiality memorandum. It says that if you leak confidential information without permission, you will be punished. Bolton signed the security memorandum with the same details once when he started working at the White House, and once again after retirement. The actual security memorandum was handwritten with signatures dated April 5, 2018 and September 13, 2019. From the standpoint of the White House, this document is like a street report. It can be a good basis for limiting the writing activities of White House employees who do so without explicit permission.

● Ultra high, which was much higher… Mildang end eventually enforce a memoir published

a draft of Bolton memoir is supposedly much the water level was high than it is now. When Bolton submitted a memoir to the White House earlier this year, it remains strong in the emails of the White House NSC staff who first reviewed it. The White House staff replied with amazement: "I looked at the memoirs, but there was a lot of confidentiality and even the highest level of national confidentiality." He also refused to publish a memoir because Bolton wrote a security memorandum.


However, Bolton has not been willing to publish. Bolton met with the White House representative four times to hear the details of the draft issue. And he said he would organize the corrections, and wrote it in a 39-page note. These are the notes that Bolton always wore at the North American summit, and the ultra-high revision notes were still attached to the trial record. In fact, the writing of this record was very difficult for others to recognize. The words KJU, which stands for Chairman Kim Jong-un, and MOON, which stands for President Moon Jae-in, appear in several places, but there is no way to confirm in what context this was used in the draft. Anyway, Bolton even tried to change something and even attached a lot of notes to the trial.

However, even after reviewing the book, there was still a lot of confidentiality, so the White House filed the corrections in 415 and handed them over to the document. There are more than 110 places related to the Korean Peninsula. This is a typed document, and you can see in what context you're asking for revision, and I've noticed mainly what I've been trying to do to refine assertive expressions.

Bolton did not accept most of these points. He accepted only what he said he could accept, but not many. I ate Hansotbap once, but it seems that my subordinates were not willing to accept what the Americans knew and pointed out. Bolton decided that he had done all of his modifications and could now be published. He said that he was told to speak orally in a trial record containing his claim. Bolton confirmed the publication date of June 23rd and followed up on the process.

But the atmosphere of the White House has changed. It seems that the practitioner decided that it was not a job for the practitioner to review. People from other departments began to intervene, and the emails of people who contacted Bolton were replaced by others. On June 16, when the book was imminent, the NSC lawyer emailed Bolton to warn him that it was a security memorandum and could be held liable.

Bolton thought the government was trying to ban publication. It seems that he was also detecting an upcoming lawsuit. Memoirs began to be made known through major media outlets. Sole articles were pouring out, and as the competition in the media became hot, interest grew. As expected, the Justice Department filed a lawsuit prohibiting publication, and the court allowed the publication of the book saying it would be of no use to ban the publication. However, the conclusion of the ruling by the judge is significant. It was stated that Bolton is betting on national security and there is a possibility of punishment. First of all, this lawsuit is forbidden to publish, so I will judge only that part, but it seemed that the judge wanted to warn me that it was a matter for you to put it in the ruling.

● Why did Bolton publish even though he knew the risk of criminal punishment?

Bolton, who appeared on Fox News, said his memoirs had no confidential information. He claimed he could punish himself for leaking confidential information, as there was nothing wrong with it. However, the contents contain secret calls, discussions, and private conversations between the summits that they claim to have heard. Of course, the memoirs can be worth the record, but the memoirs written by former staffs who wrote a confidential memorandum, without express permission from the White House, were at risk of being punished.


It is very dangerous for readers to accept that the entire book is a fact. Former White House Secretary-General Mulvenini, who frequently appears in the memoirs, said it was true that President Trump asked every time he met President Xi Jinping to buy American produce, but it was only Bolton's claim that he asked for help in his re-election. . In some cases, it is possible that the president would argue that it was unsuccessful to have sales diplomacy to buy domestic produce.

Particularly on issues related to the Korean Peninsula, Bolton was full of hopes that his conversation with North Korea would be destroyed. I actually wrote that in the memoir. Bolton's memoirs, full of ultra-strong diplomatic security officers who will only press and force their opponents to surrender, can be thought of as full of awful arrogance and prejudice.

I can't say that Bolton made this memoir without reviewing legal issues. While looking at the security memorandum for punishment, I wondered why I did this dangerous and irrational act. Bolton, angry at the peace deal with the Taliban, eventually threw his resignation, and Trump wrapped it up as a layoff. Bolton expressed considerable anger in this area. In Korea, it is a big problem if you report the dismissal through Katok, but it is a big insult to dismiss the top White House staff in the United States as a tweet. When a proud man feels insulted, he sometimes acts very irrationally, but I think Bolton might be the case. In the movie Sweet Life, the actor Kim Young-cheol reminds me of "You gave me an insult".
