Trump has no diplomacy Paphitis, so I don’t know what you’re on about. :?

The fool shouldn’t be anywhere near politics… but feel free to interpret things in whichever way you please.

I have my interpretation and you have yours.

Trump is doing his job with regard to North Korea.

When Rocket Man was firing rockets everywhere and over Japan and towards Guam, and threatening USA, Australia and Japan with Nuclear annihilation, the Americans were never going to be nice at such provocations. You can't negotiate with Rocket man in that frame of mind, just talk in the language he understands.

Trump is doing a good job so far and doing what he needs to be doing and what the allies expect from him.

Now that he wants to engage South Korea and even the USA, we will see what happens and listen to what Rocket man has to say. But as I said, there is a glimmer of hope but no one will be counting their chickens.

Don't look at Trump for an explanation.
Neither his sanctions would ever have an effect on crazy Kim
He had nothing to do with it.
It was the "Russians". :wink:

No. It was the Chinese. Who didn’t want a major conflagration on their border with a Syrian-like influx of refugees, nor to fall out with by far their most important export market.

Before we get the mandatory “MSM” drudgery, the link is just one of many, all basically carrying the same message. That was at the top.

I’m mostly indifferent to Trump and wouldn’t argue with the view he’s a dork. Nevertheless, for 60+ years US administrations have been attempting to rein in NK, getting nowhere. Obama in particular was a disaster. Trump, with his bellicosity and unpredictability has brought this to a head. He appears to have been speaking in a language understood in Pyongyang.

Whether it will actually get anywhere........? IIRC, it’s all fallen apart before on the resident Kim’s refusal to countenance third party verification of an agreement. We can only hope I suppose.

If it works then the usual suspects will just have to move on to supporting some other murdering, nepotistic tyrant. The only qualifying criteria being that they’re anti-West.

It was the Chinese that warned him that he would be all on his own if he provokes the Americans with his missile testing and Nuclear Program.

Trump is the US President that the USA needs but not just that, he is the US president the world needs after that disastrous Obama.

Trump is putting everything back on track, and now Russia and NK actually fear his rhetoric and his unpredictability. They got use to Obama and his disastrous foreign policy and the worse thing is, they are accusing Trump of being isolationist when it was Obama that was the true isolationist.

It was the Cypriots… they told Kim that implementing glasnost and perestroika would guarantee him one bitta souvlakia.
