Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says she approves of how her successors in the Trump administration are handling some of their foreign policy business.

In an interview with CBS' Margaret Brennan that aired Sunday on Face the Nation, Rice praised how the White House is dealing with Iran and North Korea in particular. "Nobody's been able to solve the North Korean problem," Rice said. "I don't have a problem with how they're going about that."
