I think that their statement and the statements coming out of the South Korea and North Korea has been very positive”
“That would be a great thing for the world. We will see how it all comes about. I thought that North Korea were terrific. They went into the Olympics and went in with good spirit. They did well. Let’s see if we can carry it over.”
Contrast this to the cold shoulder and cries from the usual politicians in America who called North Koreas play in the Olympics nothing but a "charm offensive"
I don't care if North Korea is faking it. Talking is always better than a war. A war America has been goading for and wanting for a long time. America needs to suck up its ego, withdraw and not give the North Koreans any reason to have the damn nukes in the first place.

Friendly reminder that not too long ago you were telling everyone to get on board with Trump's nuclear threats against North Korea.
Yep, when North Korea was similarly threatening the annihilation of everyone else without cause. Being called 'rocket man' is not sufficient reason to incinerate millions of people. I think America at the time was right to 'threaten' because it got China shitting itself into being more serious
Everyone would much prefer a unified and friendly Korea.
You know the really shit thing is, us billions of plebs are like pawns to just a handful of people in the world. So due to the fact that Trump, Putin, Xi and Kim may not get along, the lives and livelihoods of the rest of the world is in jeopardy. How crazy is that?
If there is a chance to resolve it through talks, then it should be explored. Even if Kim is disingenuous here, it should be investigated. But I do believe the American troops and token war games in South Korea is the reason for a lot of the tension. If South Korea mans up and gets rid of the yanks, then there is a much better chance for peace
With the fact that America could land a nuke on Pyongyang in around half an hours notice, the troops on the border are a redundant and costly exercise anyway. Their only point to remain there
is to keep tensions running high.
