Does a “quieter” North Korea represent progress in dealing with the rogue state’s threat to peace?

This is the stupidest comment ever.

The North Koreans are the most secretive regime in the world and everything the North Koreans do is covert.

Our intelligence is simply not publicizing and covering up what they are up to these days.

North Korea is quiet because South Korea and China have become very friendly in the last few years. Xi Jinping has had just about enough of Kim’s provocations, and he isn’t about to let North Korea damage the excellent economic relationship China and South Korea have developed.
