Senator Rand Paul was in downtown Bowling Green Monday.

He held a Medals Ceremony, presented to Jeffrey Gosnik, in honor of his late father, World War II Veteran Otto Grosnik.

Senator Rand Paul says that he does agree with the Trump administration and their decision to get China involved with North Korea.

"They're a socialist economy. They don't produce enough food to feed themselves, sort of an inhospitable place, it's cold and somewhat barren. I think that most of their food coming in from China, China could have some on their behavior."

Senator Paul also added that he believes having an open dialogue is important.

The Senator also believes that there is a very good chance King Jun Un can be deterred from making irrational decisions.
