LIVE THREAD: US-North Korea talks moving 'more quickly than expected'
The British Broadcasting Corporation ^ | June 11, 2018

The US says its discussions with North Korea are moving "more quickly than expected" ahead of the summit in Singapore on Tuesday.

The preliminary talks between officials have been taking place ahead of the unprecedented first meeting.

The White House also confirms that President Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un will hold a one-on-one meeting, with only translators present.

The outcome may determine the fate of North Korea's nuclear programme.

The US insists it will accept nothing less than complete denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula.

North Korea has said it is willing to commit to denuclearisation, but that term is open to interpretation.

It is also unclear what concessions Pyongyang could demand in return - which makes the summit very hard to predict, according to analysts....

Well...
It’s just SOP for these things to be worked out in advance down to the last detail.

If there wasn’t an agreement already there wouldn’t have been a “summit”.

On Fox they showed a replay of meltdown of Rachel Maddow, from a short time ago. OMG! they sat down without anyone recording what Trump and Kim were saying to each other in private - maybe they were secretly planning to take over the world together! ;-)

Moon Jae-in: "I think every S. Korean's attention is on Singapore. I too could not sleep last night. I sincerely hope the summit will succeed, and bring to us complete denuclearization, peace, and a new era for South, North, and the U.S." via @hj257

Surprised I haven't seen more pictures of SKs watching the meeting. Should be some emotional ones out there.

Don’t assume that Kim did it. We tend to forget that while Kims come and go the Nork generals are the powers behind the throne. And they are likely the shot callers ordering hits.

Kim may have been equal parts hostage and figurehead ruler. But if something unfortunate recently happened to the Nork generals then Kim Jong Un the basketball loving Swiss student is now free to act.

This is pretty big...just heard on Ingram Show on Fox that the North Korean State media has announced to the people of NK that Kim is in Singapore negotiating with President Trump on denuclearization. Now it makes more sense that he axed the top 3 military guys a few weeks ago and we probably can say with good faith that China dropped the hammer on Kim.

It’s all coming together!

“CNN has Rodman on for commentary”

I saw Dennis Rodman speak at West Point on his North Korean experiences.

Before that, I had thought that he was a clownish figure, because of his appearance. After that, I view him as a truly exceptional human being - a good man with a huge heart.

Dennis Rodman was also on Trump’s TV show with him - Rodman is a long time friend of Donald Trump, and a vocal Trump supporter.

“The real Summit took place in the Forbidden City in Beijing, China during the Winter Olympics in South Korea.”

I think you nailed it!

I’ve no doubt he’s a good man- in real life.
CNN was playing him for his public persona though.

Note in the photo where Trump isn’t shaking his hand.he’s ‘taking his hand” ....he’s leading ‘softly’ like a father to a child....
