HELL no. 

UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The United Nations is prepared to play a verification role if asked following talks in Singapore between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula, U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres said on Monday.

Send Scott Ritter.  He's already trained and if something happens it won't be a loss.

I would trust "UN inspectors" about as far as I could throw 'em.

On second thought, no, not even that far...

Classy Guy.

Ritter made headlines when news surfaced that he had been caught in a police sting in 2001.

Police said that he had tried to lure a 16-year-old girl — actually a Colonie undercover officer posing online — to a Burger King in Menands. That case was later adjourned in contemplation of dismissal — essentially dropped — and the record was sealed. At the time, Ritter suggested that the case was a smear campaign designed to silence him.

Less than a decade after that arrest, Ritter found himself in similar legal trouble.

He was convicted in 2011 in Monroe County, Pa., after Barrett Township police presented evidence that in 2009 he had masturbated in front of a webcam being viewed by an undercover officer who was posing as a 15-year-old girl.
