so now that trump is seemingly back at the table, the question for me is what is trump willing to give up to get Un to 100% denuke. I doubt that removing sanctions would be enough. I would imagine Un would want a [complete] removal of US armed forces from SK and the region, due to the threat of the Libya model and trump's bailing out on the Iran deal, Bolton, etc et al. Un's going to try to demand more assurances trump won't kill him libya style. I don't think we have any nukes in SK so that would mean conventional weapons removed. Removing a bunch of our military from the region would certainly be appealing to China.
Just speculating. trump wants a deal bad, real bad. Un knows that. You never let the other guy know how bad you want the deal. Trump's like a teenager buying his first car and getting four squared.
