President Trump said Tuesday that he has given “my blessing” to planned discussions between South Korea and North Korea about bringing a formal end to the Korean War and suggested that five locations are under review for his planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

“North Korea is coming along. South Korea is meeting and has plans to meet to see if they can end the war, and they have my blessing on that,” Trump said about word that the two Koreas would discuss a formal end to the war later this month.

...

Trump says U.S. and North Korea have had direct talks at "very high levels."

So a North Korean disarmament deal is going to fall into his lap like a windfall from the gods and then we can just make Trump Emperor, right?

With poor enforcement provisions and we'll discover early next year that they've been cheating

Getting North Korea to stop missile tests is unarguably a good thing but it's not exactly a breakthrough.

This is SOP for the regime and how we deal with them: escalation, negotiation, de-escalation, repeat in 5-10 years.

It's probably because of the underground collapse, just great timing for Trump.

it's rather sad partisanship and personal hatred is so pronounced it took this long just to state the most obvious read.

and the rest of your post is spot on, the North Koreans have long viewed their weapons programs more as negotiating tools than war winners (though their fundamental purpose is to forestall regime change), but de-escalation appears to be the order of the day and a conflict accidental or otherwise is less of a probability than it was yesterday, and in the words of the warrior-poet Ice Cube, if the day does not require an AK, it is good.

To be fair having nukes is the only surefire way to prevent the USA from enforcing a regime change.

It is generally hard to meet the requirements of January 20, 1992.

NK corrected to say that they've ended testing because they're at a point that the feel their missiles are nuclear warhead ready.

DOESN'T MATTER THEY SAID ENDED IT'S A TRUMP VICTORY

Why though? K-pop is awesome











Yes I read the article it's a joke

[6souls]

A defection a page or two ago was because the soldier wanted more K-pop.

Holy fuck, did not realize this dude was that much of a fatbody. I guess that's why they don't show side pictures of the dear leader in their usual photo ops.
