Trump and Kim war games to end

TRUMP & KIM MEETING DATE...

12 June 2018

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, met with Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea, on June 12, 2018, in Singapore, in the first summit meeting between the leaders of the two countries...

why the meeting between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un is so risky ?

 A US president has never met a North Korean leader is that the US and North Korea have been, and continue to be, at war. Since 1953, a ceasefire has made that conflict largely symbolic, with suffering limited to South Koreans killed in provocative strikes, and the North Koreans who suffer in a gulag state or die fleeing it.

In international diplomacy, the leader-to-leader meeting is the highest level of commitment available. No prior White House would send the president into a summit that has not been pre-scripted with guaranteed results. Should there be no agreement, there is no face-saving blame to be put on negotiators, and little room left for diplomacy. And while the White House says this meeting is not a negotiation, that only raises the question of what the president is even doing there.

To entice Trump, North Korea said it would suspend the nuclear and missile tests it uses to protest military exercises between the US and South Korea. 

For his part, Trump will demand an end to North Korea’s nuclear program, which Kim will not surrender without concessions of his own. Reductions in sanctions and an increase in aid could be part of a plan to step down weapons production—although this is the framework of the nuclear agreement with Iran that Trump has lambasted. A push for an actual peace treaty in exchange for denuclearization would be a larger step.

“President Trump committed to provide security guarantees to the DPRK, and Chairman Kim Jong-un reaffirmed his firm and unwavering commitment to complete denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula.”

The statement went on to list four specific pledges that both Mr Trump and Kim agreed to stand by. 

The first was that both countries would establish “new relations” in the pursuit of “peace and prosperity” - an attempt to draw a line under the insults and threats of last year. 

The second said that America and North Korea would “join their efforts to build a lasting and stable peace regime on the Korean Peninsula”. 

The third said that Kim’s regime “commits to work toward complete denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula” - a key demand from the Americans. 

And the fourth promised that the remains of fallen US soldiers who died fighting in the Korean War would be repatriated to the United States.

Tremendous relationship

Mr Trump hailed his “tremendous” relationship with Kim and said he believed he could trust the North Korean leader after the pair met in Singapore. 

The US president said their talks were “honest, direct and productive”, adding: “We got to know each other well in a very confined period of time.” 

Asked if he trusted Kim, Mr Trump replied: “I do.” Pushed to explain, Mr Trump said: “I know when someone wants to deal and I know when they don’t.”
