Dennis Rodman offered to “straighten things out” between North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and the United States as tensions mount over the rogue regime’s nuclear tests. 

Rodman, who has gone to North Korea several times as a sports ambassador and spent a lot of time with Kim Jong Un, told a British television show he might be able to help. 

“For me to go over there and see (Kim) as much as I have, I basically hang out with him all the time. We laugh, we sing karaoke, we do a lot of cool things together. We ride horses, we hang out, we go skiing, we hardly ever talk politics and that’s the good thing,” Rodman said, Reuters reports.

Rodman cautioned he wasn’t trying to defend the dictator’s provocations.
