Donald Trump announces on Twitter he will reverse his own administration's decision to slap new sanctions on North Korea

The White House had said Thursday's sanctions were evidence the US was maintaining pressure on North Korea in an effort to coax its leader to give up his nuclear weapons program.

Calls to the two companies rang without response on Friday or were answered by people who immediately hung up the phone. The Treasury Department, in coordination with the State Department and the US Coast Guard, also updated a North Korea shipping advisory, adding dozens of vessels thought to be doing ship-to-ship transfers with North Korean tankers or exported North Korean coal in violation of sanctions.

They said the deceptive practices include disabling or manipulating ship identification systems, repainting the names on vessels and falsifying cargo documents.

Hello ABC 'Failed' Vietnam summit was actually a continuation of negotiations What Trump has done is called a 'concession' Prediction: North Korea will come back to negotiating table and make their 'concessions' It's part of something adults do in real life called 'bargaining'

As long as Trump stays as far away from find another reason from the US from going to war it’s all good.
