It doesn’t buy us much of anything. We still have to get rid of Kim’s missiles and nukes. There is simply no way for us to “stand down” now. Trump has his work cut out for him, but walking away from NK is not on the list any longer. And the hard fact of the matter is, we will have to do it alone. No more “international community,” or UN.
Trump is working on it, even as we complain and praise. Norkea will go down, or at least the current Nork Establishment will go down and China with an economic knife to its throat will give Kim the classic Soviet nine millimeter solution.
