After establishing a 1997 pilot project to educate North Koreans at his university, in 2018 Soros wanted us to just accept North Korea as a nuclear power. Clearly Soros believes a vibrant Civil Society in North Korea requires nuclear weapons.  When did he come to that conclusion?  Surely Soros and Eric Schmidt don't want talks between Trump and North Korea to fail? Soros must of had a long game investment plan for North Korea since 1997 (if not earlier). Soros Eyes North Korea 1999 http://archive.is/GzXap  The success last year of a six-month course in western economics for a group of business managers from North Korea's Rajin-Sonbong free trade zone opened the way for further cooperation.  Seven North Koreans studied in Budapest under the scheme, supported by the United Nations Development Programme. The project took months of delicate negotiations to set up, said Sophie Howlett, CEU director of external programmes, during a visit to Moscow's Schola '99 education fair last month.  Other North Koreans followed similar tailored courses in micro and macroeconomics at universities in Canberra and Thailand.  Oh they gave the UN all the credit!  This was Soros' project too. Soros and North Korea 1998 Soros Woos North Korea  (he's a dictator whisperer!) Financier George Soros has established pilot project to help support North Korea's first moves to a mixed economy. A group of seven North Korean graduate students are studying law, economics and international relations on a specially tailored six-month course at the Soros Foundation-endowed Central European University in Budapest. The project (after more than a year of delicate negotiations to set up with North Korean authorities), is jointly funded by Soros and the United Nations Development Programme, according to sources in Hungarian higher education.  The project is still at a very early stage, but it is understood that the North Koreans, all in their late 20s and early 30s, were handpicked by a member of the university staff with connections in the secretive Communist state, apart from two who were state appointees. https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/soros-woos-north-korea/106019.article  So who was the University staff member with the connections?
