The process – or non-process – of North Korean denuclearization and inter-Korean relations may well be decided on Thursday when two meetings take place: North Korea’s newly-inaugurated Supreme People’s Assembly meets and later that day, South Korean President Moon Jae-in meets US President Donald Trump in Washington.
In the wake of February’s failed North Korea-US summit in Hanoi, which broke up without any agreement, experts will be watching the SPA meeting for clues toward future North Korean policy.
But more mission-critical matters will be discussed in Washington. There, South Korea’s Moon faces the sternest task. In a bid to restart stalled denuclearization talks, he is also, according to widespread reports in South Korean media, quoting unnamed government officials, going to ask Trump for sanctions exemptions.
For Moon, this may be his most critical meeting with Trump.
Without an easing of the sanctions, Moon will be unable to engage with the North economically, stymying his hopes of kick-starting inter-Korean transport linkages, commerce, tourism and industrial ventures. But absent any signal from North Korea on denuclearization, Trump – who admitted in Hanoi he could have signed a deal but decided to “walk” – looks unlikely to grant that.

Yeah. Appeasement. Um no Moon.
Officially end the Korean War.
Open the border. Germany did it, you can do it.
Invite South Korean businesses to set up shop in North Korean cities, towns and villages, have your former military brass run the towns ‘during transition’. (Their presence keeps the lid on the pressure cooker until it cools down. It also keeps them busy...)
Take credit for the jobs, food and stuff the people earn.
Be a living god more revered than Sejong the Great!
I can’t believe how bad some people are at making deals. Does Moon really not see he is working against himself?
Give the Norks nothing until they have given up all nukes. Maybe even add to their miser for dragging their feet.
(remember “no new taxes”?) NO DEAL MOON.
Yes, let the people get a taste of freedom.
ENd the war and open the border....
Same in China, Iran and Venezuela. People will dictate, esp the women, the results.
When I saw “Moon” in the title, I thought this thread was going to be about lunar exploration.
Did you know Vin Scully coined the word ‘moonshot,’ referring to Wally Moon homers?
It might as well be. Little Beresheet is due to arrive on Thursday.

Two meetings:
1. Beresheet (representing all Israel 'in the beginning') meets the Moon
2. President Trump meets Moon
No you cannot make it up. I’ve seen these events many times, there are no coincidences.
“Supreme People’s Assembly”, newly-inaugurated.
Nice touch to wrap up the message, don’t you think?

Nobody is giving up nukes anymore. Especially for false promises. Saddam and Qadafy are great examples.
