So arguably, a meeting sought to receive something of value from a Foreign National as a contribution would violate that statute. And then second, title 18, section 371, which is the conspiracy to defraud, the possibility is that the prosecutors could look at this meeting and the events surrounding it and say this was a conspiracy to deprive the federal Election Commission of an honest and fair election. And that violates that title 18 statute. So there are two statutes to answer jays, you know, Rhetorical Question that could apply. But i wanted to add one thing, which is, this is, in fact, poppy, the first, you know, Public Statement by the president about this meeting, as shimon indicates.

North korea is violating the import ban, the export ban, theyre selling conventional arms to bad actors in libya and yemen, and we know that china and russia are very supportive of lifting sanctions on north korea while all of that is happening, so north koreas best bet is lets keep talking to the United States, lets keep producing Ballistic Missiles and nuclear weapons, and keep trying to get china and russia to pressure the United States to lift sanctions in the interim.
