China pressures North Korea as leverage over trade talks.
It is a useful foil for them. North Korea is the bait they hope to use to reel in the end of tariffs.
But they’re dealing with Donald J. Trump.
We shall see.
Maybe the Chinese will have little Kim rattle his sabre some to see if they can spin up the US media against Trump.
Whoops, too late!!! We’ve been there, they’ve done that—every day.
One little bit of added info. - China and Vietnam have a history of belligerence - The Vietnamese do not like the Chinks.
Holding the summit in Vietnam has many pluses for the U.S. Trump appears to know history and that is a very good thing
Good take on China/ NK.
Heard a similar take Re sanctions.
Trump knows multi negotiating way beyond the comprehension of the pundits who only read the latest talking points
