In terms of the truth or morality of praising Kim, no. But it's not as if there is no logic: Venezuela has an active opposition, NK doesn't, so we are dealing w/the existing regime. I don't agree with the latter, but as a matter of realpolitik, it's a strategy. https://twitter.com/BenjySarlin/status/1109158308970139649 …
My original premise is that we have a realistic prospect of seeing a new regime in VZ in the foreseeable future. ROK isn't even interested in that in NK anymore.
