Capping off two days of high profile meetings with North Korea’s Kim Yong Chol, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says “real progress” has been made toward a deal that would allow for a summit between Kim Jong-un and President Trump.
Pompeo said that after a series of meetings he believes the talks are going in “the right direction.” The North Korean delegation is heading to Washington D.C., where they will deliver a letter to President Trump from Kim.
Trump also said he viewed the Pompeo talks as a positive step, and that he “looks forward” to seeing what the letter says. US officials, however, have yet to make it clear if the summit will take place, or even offer a timetable for making such a decision.
The summit was previously scheduled for June 12 in Singapore, but President Trump cancelled it last week. Officials have since said that the summit might still happen, and could even conceivably happen as previously scheduled. With just two weeks left before that date, a later date may also have to be considered.
Has anyone thought to consider it is not president Trump that is unfit to be our president but all the other presidents we have had for the last 70 years . This sure looks to be maybe the case on Korea . Trump has already accomplished more than all of our previous presidents put together in Korea .
No.
maybe yes and maybe no but I bet N and S Korea won’t have to wait another 70 years . Kim will even be popular in S Korea , if the 70 year war is over . Trump commands action .God bless him .
Trump has accomplished absolutely nothing in regards to North Korea. Stop putting the cart before the horse. If an agreement is reached then the sky fairy can bless the Donald.
Seems to eric, trump is the sky fairy….
I wish the two lands, US and N.Korea, reach a heavenly agreement.
After that i also wish both countries to establish heavenly life for all of their citizens.
Is that too much ask? No, not ever, if asked from people-loving and good-life-loving-people for all people.
No, no, not ever too much to ask for. Nor ever even a tiny bit immoral, unfair, unreasonable.
Can North Korea have allies? Can they have missiles? Will they make every inch of North Korea available for inspections at our whim and for all time? These are just a few of the 12 commandments Pompeo has put forth for Iran. How can we ask anything less of North Korea? I don’t understand why we think the summit is some groundbreaking event when our attitude of demanding total capitulation hasn’t, and won’t, change.
Wars and their ending nearly always have the following (possibly unintended) consequences for our economy. During the war the unemployment rate is very low and the annual growth of the GDP is high. Immediately after the war ends the unemployment rate goes up and the growth of the GDP drops (1). That is why our wars have to be endless.
(1) to negative growth values for two years in a row after the end of WW2 and after the end of the Vietnam war!
Peace stinks economically!
