CIA Director Mike Pompeo said Sunday that President Trump has indeed put pre-conditions on his agreed-to meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and will make no concessions before such a meeting happens — attempting to end uncertainty and widespread speculation about ground-rules for such a historic meeting.
