North Korea is reactivating a missile site, South Korea says

South Korean intelligence agencies have detected signs that North Korea is restoring part of a missile launch site it began to dismantle after the first summit with US President Donald Trump last year.

Trump told a news conference after an unprecedented first summit with Kim on June 12 in Singapore that the North Korean leader had promised that a major missile engine testing site would be destroyed very soon.Trump did not identify the site, but a US official subsequently told Reuters it was the Sohae Satellite Launching Ground, which is located at Tongchang-ri.The White House and the US State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the Yonhap report.

However, subsequent images indicated North Korea had halted work to dismantle the missile engine test site in the first part of August.The breakdown of the summit in Hanoi last week has raised questions about the future of US-North Korea dialogue.

Kim is falling right into the hands of US bombardments once and for all. The olive branch has been rejected by NK no other alternative left.

So North Korea blows it’s one big chance for easy street! Media hope so. Then they can blame Trump again and again and again like they always do.

That trip was a huge success. Not.

Nice, the alt-left media now all have to eat humble pie, cause President Trump was right to walkaway from any deal with North Korea, ah life is good, chew your cud's Lefty's & then suck on it. KAG auspol.

Not surprised in the slightest. He's just making a fool out of Trump.

Good job, Mr Presidunce! TrumpKimSummit ImpeachTrumpNow TrumpCrimeSyndicate

Who cares. Leave it to North Koreans to shoot Fat By Kim in the head, if they want to. Meanwhile, If NoKo is actually dumb enough to attack a friendly nation, give it right back to the Fat Kid. Otherwise, stay out of it.

It’s ok, I’ll let the big dog realDonaldTrump know because he’s pretty sure he made this stop.

That's about it in a nutshell 👇 I think your assessment is incorrect of realDonaldTrump There’s no deal, so what’s he going to say. 45 is clearly not prepared to do a deal that doesn’t suit US interests... so that’s fair enough. Trump had to say something to the press. Kim won’t be getting his way. All the conservatives & RWNJ's defending this man, should be utterly ashamed of themselves. None of you have a shred of moral or ethical integrity about you. You've let trump shit all over the institutions & pillars of democracy, all for political expediency & party loyalty

North Korea rejects US claims about lifting sanctionsNorth Korea disputes claims by United States President Donald Trump that it demanded all sanctions be lifted in exchange for decommissioning its nuclear research centre. 'High-stakes meetings meant to disarm a global threat.' you say? I didn't realize that this was about the USA disarming, I thought it was about NK. Unsurprising that we get two conflicting stories though, Trump is a serial liar and so is NK. Please help me the maphia is killing people in my apt when I am put in patent by the corrupt police who are involved. I live at 70 n Whitney st Amherst ma apt C . I am being locked up again today! Help please. At least someone is having a go at solving the Korean problem. The simple fact that these two leaders are willing to sit down and talk shows a lot more conciliatory progress than say Obama ever did.
