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....

That’s very good, very plausible.

But my guess is that your 5-10 years will be more like 1-2 years. Kim is eager for NK to join the modern world, and South Korea will be glad to help them. Probably there will be unification under the South’s leadership.

Same thing that came to my mind.

The North Korean participants in the expanded bilateral meeting at the #TrumpKimSummit: - Kim Jong-Un - North Korean vice chairman Kim Yong Chol - North Korean foreign minister Ri Yong Ho - Former North Korean foreign minister Ri Su Yong - Translator

"Former North Korean foreign minister Ri Su Yong"
What's the "specialness" of this *former* Foreign Minister? Spy for China?
Anyway, very curious to me.

Thanks. It makes sense now.

Kim is the face of the old guard military leaders who have built the nuclear force Kim is putting on the table.

Classic “I made you, I can take you out”.

So Kim is warned (South Korea? / US? / Chinese?) he must remove X, Y and Z literally or risk a coup Vs a prosperous historic future.

Now, having removed the internal threat, the West and East are ready to embrace and groom Kim having established trust by saving his life now and promising protection in the future.

Face in tact.

In a way NK military leaders are no different than the Soros globalists. Obama was as much of a puppet as Kim.

Out of the dark: North Koreans told of Trump-Kim summit

North Korea’s state media has described the talks between Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump as part of a “changed era” – the secretive state’s first comment on the momentous summit.

The KCNA news agency said the two leaders will exchange “wide-ranging and profound views” during their meeting at the five-star Capella Hotel on Sentosa Island.

It reported that the discussions are going to focus on “the issue of building a permanent and durable peacekeeping mechanism on the Korean peninsula, the issue of realising the denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula, and other issues of mutual concern”.

To North Koreans the denuke issue could mean the US nukes protecting South Korea

“The real Summit took place in the Forbidden City in Beijing”

Chinese electronics giant ZTE may have been taken hostage by the Trump Administration, to trade for the North Korean regime that China kept hostage.

we have to divorce the Rodman we know from the Rodman who knows NK. He is an asset in my opinion.

And when you hear Rodman speak he’s no dummy, despite looking like he takes his fashion cues from Star Wars. He may have played a more significant role than anyone realizes.

He never mentioned how many years it took for his messiah to come up with the worthless piece of paper they got from Iran.
