In the Agreed Framework, NK got some shipments of oil to make up for the nuclear reactors it destroyed.

The AF did slow down their nuclearization for a number of years. But Bush/Bolton destroyed it in 2002.

They were still trying to "cheat," but on the whole, the Agreement was doing its job for about 8 years.

NK accused the US of cheating too, and rightly I think. Clinton was slowing down oil shipments right after Kim Il Sung died in hopes of regime change. The Republican Congress also stalled the promised aid.  We don't hear much about this, but the US has been a bad player as well.

That is in part why what previous presidents did "wasn't working."
