I think maybe The Republic of China or is it the Peoples Republic of China has promised to protect North Korea in order to bring peace to the area

Its a non-story. Their TV also said they would not proliferate their nuclear technology. Anyone believing that...?

I fear that populist Donald will accept backroom deals on easing sanction just to get some positive headlines for himself, or those US hostages aboard Air Force One. He has no interest in longterm strategies and perspectives, just lives for the next tweet. Who cares if loosening sanctions allow NK to gain more modern technology it can use militarily, if he scores in the next polls a bit?

What NK claims it does, is no standard to base on. Control is the only acceptable standard. And makes sense only if NK hands over the technicall means to produces nukes and ICBMs. Today they said this. Tomorrow they say somethign different. Thats is no basis for suddenly trusting them.

Japan reacts with much more caution here. And probably is far more realistic. Maybe because it is much closer to NK and China, than the Donald is?

I haven't kids of my own, almost some of my friends or family have
And I guess some of you who have kids know these things.

When a child get a punishment for having broken some role in the home-Can sometimes be oh so gentle and perfect -
I don't know what the correct psychological word for this is.

I have done it myself and I have seen my friends family kids doing this after we had got a punishment of some kind.

I once got a 14 days home jail.
I was down my friend had a party and I really wanted to join this party

So I became so perfect and so in-speech with my parent all in hope for an ease on this punishment.

Wonder if KJU is doing the same
Trying to become in-speech and so perfect in USA and other countries view so they ease on the sanction.

May be that is a good tactic to use against KJU. The requirement of demonstrated actions far above ours.

All else fails, continue increasing sanctions.

Trust but verify

If we don't have a way to measure compliance, we don't really have an agreement.
