Trump’s DMZ Diplomacy Fails

“The day after President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un shook hands last month at Korea’s demilitarized zone, Pyongyang’s official report hailed the meeting as delivering a ‘new breakthrough in the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula,'” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“But not even a month later, the goodwill generated by the DMZ diplomacy appears to have soured.”

“Pyongyang has grown angrier in recent weeks, sapping its apparent enthusiasm for jump-starting stalled talks aimed at ending the North’s nuclear program. The Kim regime’s fury culminated Thursday in the launch of two short-range missiles, the North’s first weapons test since May.”
