“The risk is that you increase the value of hostage taking,” said one expert.
President Trump listens to a question from a member of the media before boarding a Marine helicopter Friday on the South Lawn of the White House. By Adam Taylor Adam Taylor Foreign reporter who writes about a variety of subjects Email Bio Follow April 27 at 7:00 AM For decades, President Trump has styled himself as a master negotiator — someone who knows the art behind every deal.
“The risk is that you increase the value of hostage taking,” said Joel Simon, the executive director of the Committee to Protect Journalists and author of a book on hostage negotiations. “You know it will get the president’s attention.” Warmbier died shortly after he returned to the United States in June 2017. There is no evidence that the North Korean bill was ever paid, but the revelation of its existence drew a critical response. Fred Warmbier, Otto’s father, told The Post that it sounded like a “ransom” for his son.
In an interview with CNN on Thursday, Joseph Yun, the State Department’s point man on North Korea during Warmbier’s release, did not confirm that he had signed the North Korean document but said that freeing hostages was always a “tough question” for the U.S. government. President Trump meets with Danny Burch, a U.S. hostage in Yemen that had been released, in the Oval Office on March 6 in Washington. Trump’s emphasis on hostage negotiations initially came as a relief to some families who felt that the Obama-era attitude was too procedural and not open to improvisation. When Warmbier was first detained, his family had sought a more assertive U.S. government response but were rebuffed by officials.
