The first Trump administration upheld and increased economic sanctions, using them to pressure Pyongyang into making concessions, even while it eschewed direct military action. In the end, Trumpās approach to North Korea veered between high-stakes negotiations and coercive pressure.
Since the breakdown of talks during Trumpās first term, North Korea has undergone major changes. Pyongyang has developed its nuclear and missileĀ capabilities, establishedĀ closer ties with Moscow and Beijing, increased its economic resilience against sanctions, and taken a more assertive stance inĀ rejectingĀ denuclearisation talks while pursuing military modernisation.

This is meaningless like the first go around. It accomplished nothing.Ā If anything is likely to happen NK will manipulate Trump to decline American interests in South Korea.Ā They are not dumb enough to give up their nukes.
The only argument I can see about this would be to normalize relations and lower the threat by not being as adversarial. Plus would it have the effect of reducing one of the spoke and wheel military bases we are using building to spread our military resources to keep China contained.
I suspect this is just a show lacking anything substative like the first time.

It’s just sorta pointless because last time they still went back to doing exactly what they wanted to during Trump’s administration.
But hey, Trump spend ALL your time on this please.
