Sounds good but Kim would never have done it until he had nukes.
Sanctions are biting hard, he will trade off his weapons for the reduction of sanctions and trade.
We will then have to see if we can trust him.
I have no problem with all this if it works.
Keep Trump away, let these two sort it, Trump will balls it up.

Absolutely. Trump makes Kim look stable!

Well... despite Trump being a clown,... on this occasion his strongman approach, along with sanctions and Chinese pressure, has moved this all in the right direction.
Kim is a despotic mass murderer, he needs to go, but if this breakout of neighbourly love is the fortaste of progress to come, let's see more Trump posturing.

the meetings during the Olympics had a big impact on North and their view of South. i doubt they'll trade in existing nukes (probably non-viable weapons anyway), the promise of ending their program with no new test and no rocket launches will probably be enough. if they're clever they'll emulate China and accept market economics under communist oversight, encouraging sanctions lifted to that end.

Being a cynical ol'git I guess this had nothing to do with the u-turn.

Should do the same with Putin - he is more unstable than his N Korean counterpart.

Kim Jong-un : “Boom! Boom!”

Of course we can't.

Sanctions and talking are always the way to go.
Still not to be trusted though.

Sickening to see all this saccharine, borderline sycophantic South Korean smiling for the head of a regime responsible for committing so many horrors against its population. A necessary evil to swallow in the name of possible progress, but unpalatable all the same.

Very true, but ultimately you have to swallow hard and try to forgive and forget otherwise it will fester away forever. There could well have been a bloodbath in South Africa when the ANC took over but instead they created the Truth and Reconciliation commission. Northern Ireland is not a perfect solution but the Good Friday Agreement has saved countless lives. Some more forgiving and forgetting wouldn't hurt.
Latest Korea news, It was Trump what done it !.................According to Donald Trump !

Now he can make them he doesn't have to test them. I think because we know he has the ability to make them he can go into denuclearisation on his own terms rather than being starved into it.
All he needs now is a new haircut:
I would suggest a Brad Pitt?

I have no time for Trump but - really? More stable than a man who has had countless people executed or assassinated, including family members, has impoverished his countryfellows, and presided over eye-watering human rights abuses?
Given the way Trump has melted, I'd say that Trump makes Kim look smart.....

Yes absolutely, and it's all potentially (the operative word) ground breaking stuff and let's hope so.
Maybe this is correct. But it is not how the west responded to the occasional olive branches from Saddam, Ghadafi and (currently) Assad. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia continues to be our 'friend'.
This international relations business is way beyond my ken. Perhaps I shouldn't have read Orwell's 1984 as a satire, and regarded it more of an instruction manual. Death to Eastasia......all hail Eastasia!
