North Korea has scheduled a ceremony to dismantle its nuclear on May 23-25 ahead of President Donald Trumps summit with leader Kim Jong Un next month, state media said Saturday.
North Koreas Foreign Ministry said Saturday that all the tunnels at the countrys northeastern testing ground will be destroyed by explosion and that observation and research facilities and ground-based testing units will also be removed. The dramatic and symbolic event is part of the Hermit Kingdoms pledge to discontinue nuclear tests.

So some here say it’s a TOTAL ploy like Kim’s pop did before him.
Some here, like me, think he’s scared to death of dying.
I’m told I dont understand the eastern/Asian mindset and they don’t have the fear of dying that many Americans do.
Anyone care to enlighten me either way?
Superb diplomacy on the part of the Trump team. If China gets involved in this summit, it’s even better. We can perhaps foresee an emerging Asia working in cooperation with Trump for a new economic world partnership. Europe’s actions in conjunction with the Soros-Obama-Hillary socialists, have brought only weakness onto the world stage. A finger in the air to Europe, let them take a backseat as they wail about Trump’s actions concerning Iran and the embassy moving to Jerusalem.
The previously wrecked tunnels will be destroyed to cover up the previous wrecking thus preventing inspection
You pretty much got it.
...but that won’t stop mindless concern troll from concern trolling.
I’m no authority on China or the Far East.
I have a feeling due to the relations between President Trump and China and Trump’s firm stand with NK that China summoned Kim for his train trip to China several weeks ago.
It could be that a life insurance policy was given to Kim regarding his nuclear program that stated get rid of it or suffer the consequences. JMO
1) Decommission an already collapsed mountain base after you have confirmed your hbomb designs work.
2) Make a show of it and some handshakes. The west will be happy you’re getting rid of nukes and turn a blind eye to all the abuses in your gulag of a country.
3) Get free billions to prop up your failed regime and quietly build another underground base.
4) Stack nukes underground to threaten the World again when money runs out.
If true Trump should get the next 12 Nobel Peace Prizes.
Pomp and circumstance.
Bump!
Hmmm.
A red flag went up for me - Kim is almost being TOO accommodating. It makes me suspicious.
Requires international inspections, not NORK say so.
“Trump is showing the world the US can’t be trusted to keep its commitments.”
“Trump is giving away the farm.”
“Kim Jong Un is making a fool out of Trump.”
“We gotsta peech Trump”
Did I miss anything?
So tired are the lefts talking point in the face of an opposit reality, really no need to watch or comment on the derangement any longer.
Or is the real reason the little riceball is making nice being the total implosion of his nuclear mountain where all the bombs were tested? Hasn’t been an underground pop since then, IIRC.
Has Kim Jong Fatso been defanged when it comes to nukes, and is he starting to wonder if there really is a God, after all?
I hear you.
Support Free Republic, Folks!
That is the logic of the naysayers.
Just saying
Face and spine.
North Korea to hold ‘ceremony’ dismantling Iran’s nuclear R&D site ahead of Trump’s summit with Kim.
there. fixed it.
And the US will gladly pick up the bill for cleaning up the old site before it collapses on its own.
