President Moon Jae-in has been pushing hard for improved ties with the north.

By Min Joo Kim Min Joo Kim Assistant Reporter in Seoul covering South and North Korea. Email Bio Follow March 22 at 8:22 AM SEOUL — North Korea on Friday abruptly pulled out from a liaison office with South Korea near the border, following the no-deal summit between leader Kim Jong Un and President Trump last month.

Moon’s top national security adviser convened an emergency meeting to discuss the surprise move from North Korea. Rapprochement with the North has been a centerpiece of Moon’s presidency and it has been in tatters since the dramatic summit breakdown in Hanoi. The proposal ultimately did not go through following the collapse of negotiations over differences about definition of denuclearization of North Korea, and the extent of sanctions relief in return. Trump and his aides have taken a hard line position that the United States will not prematurely lift sanctions until North Korea gives up all of its nuclear weapons.

“Warming ties”. I think you mean “charade”.

Time to increase the sanctions... on China

Thank the Unpatriotic Dems( Good lord what has happened to the Democrats party?) for having those worthless, ridiculous Cohen hearings while our POTUS was on the world stage negotiating for nuclear peace with North Korea. Drain the Swamp! Term Limits!

It’s almost like we shouldn’t have given him airtime without an agreement beforehand. facepalm

OMG NO?! 🤭 Anyone who plays geopolitics & didn’t see this coming down the pike needs a new job or hobby. Kim got his world stage recognition to bolster his Russian gifted nuke power and now he’s just following orders, like a good puppet, to further destabilize the world.

Hmmm.

Diplomacy requires finesse, commitment, honesty and willingness to negotiate. NK has none of these. They are using Trump's and Putin's playbook.

Whose fault is that? Probably, too greedy to admit as always. You guys are always demanding too much😦.

If only Fred Trump had pulled out …

Please allow me to come in there and settle this matter real quick and easy.... We can talk about it over the KOREAN BBQ - VEGAN STYLE. 'Oh, Yes, I have been to Korea Town, CA - USA' COME TOGETHER : MercyForAnimals There's a great BIG vegan pie in the sky for everyone.

Good thing that we didn't remove any sanctions or send them a pallet of cash in the middle of the night

See what dipstick don does
