And what could possibly go wrong?
We’ll see.
“Done” is relative here. Considering that it’s DPRK, there will be along of post “done” negotiations for sure…
Well, from the look of things, it is much better than before. Remember so many poster here wanted to a preemptive war, surgical strikes,and collapsing the regime…etc?
Now, for people of both Koreas, lets hope they can solve this peacefully and create a better future for the unified Korea in the future.
North Korea is just partially implementing an agreement they sign in February where they were supposed to dismantle and declare all their nuclear facilities within 60 days which as we know never happened because they made more demands that were not in the agreement.
So now they are shutting down their plutonium facility and still have not declared their HEU program or made any plans to dismantle the nuclear weapons they already have.
I’ll get excited when they agree to that. As it stands now it will just take them a little bit longer than last time to get Yongbyon up an operating again when the eventual backing out of this agreement happens.
This is sad news for the people of North Korea. It will strengthen Kim’s regime. People will continue to suffer under KJI. Freedom is just a pipe dream for them…
US opted to make a deal with the devil and cronies in the South.
Wow! You guys won’t believe this, but I just experienced an extreme case of deja-vu!
This is not “the” nuke deal. It is another “a” nuke deal. We are still a long way from peace in our time.
yeah havent we heard this before???????
how much did it cost the US and SK????
is this really news????
agreed. there are far too many days between now and December 31. and a lot more wrangling and reneging will take place before then.
Yes, the North will pretend to have denuclearized and the US and everyone else will pretend to believe them.
