No big surprises here. This follows a well-known strategic path of North Korean brinksmanship even to the precipice point of hot shooting and in most cases, until now the USG has been the one to blink--for fear of that shooting... so it is no surprise they are resorting to it again since it usually works for them.

“talks between Kim and Trump will go nowhere and “things will return to zero” if the following happens: a) there is no loosening of economic sanctions currently on North Korea even prior to denuclearization”

Call his bluff and cancel the meeting. They will be back when they’re eating grass seed.

a) there is no loosening of economic sanctions currently on North Korea even prior to denuclearization; b) there is any pressure on them in the area of human rights.

A) No loosening of sanctions until we have denuclearization - period. B) Let that worthless organization, the U.N. handle the human rights stuff, they have a great track record /S

Well that’s that. The President might as well get on the plane and come home.

He thinks this will shame DJT but in reality, he is about to find out that he can not play our President, and is in for a world of pain. Sad for his people, really. I wonder how much the China leader is behind these “moves”.

Trump should be ware of Kim typing in a sentence or two above the signature line after the signing.

That is a South Korean trick
