Breakthrough talks between the two Koreas are scheduled for Tuesday, the first time the two nations will engage in formal, direct talks in just over two years. The talks will seek general improvements in relations, and specifically the possibility of reaching a deal on North Korea participating in the Winter Olympics.
North Korea’s agreement to South Korea’s offer came after an agreement that the US and South Korea will be postponing any future military drills until March, after the Paralympics. This is seen as a significant concession from the north’s perspective.
US officials aren’t clear if they want the South Koreans to engage in such talks, and have been quick to insist that their decision to postpone the drills was purely a logistics move, and not intended to facilitate any talks.
South Korea’s President Moon has been very eager to engage diplomatically with the North since last year’s election, and it’s likely that he made efforts to ensure that such concessions on drills were made, whatever pretext the US wants to use.
The war mongering US should butt out and let the two Koreas figure it out.
Rules # 1
Solve your own countries problems,you newer allow foreign countries ( specially USA) to solve your problems.
This is excellent opportunity for two Koreans to solve the problems and take first step to Unification.
If USA bombs North,South will pay the price of millions of deads. What’s this Scenario tells you? Get on the table and talk.

USA shitting itself that there will be peace in Korean peninsula. Explanation of the postponed drill says it all.
