Second summit between US and North Korea ends bitter

Donald Trump, the President of the US, and Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea met again. This conference was conducted at Hanoi on Feb 27-28, 2018. It was deemed as a second round to the previous summit conducted in the last June.

However, they seem not to have got any deals.

The Economist: Trump and Kim walk away

Trump seems to have attempted to make North Korea abandon nuclear weapons. The North' complete and irreversible withdrawal from developing nuclear weapons is the goal for the US. On the other hand, the potential of nuclear weapons is a crucial tool in negotiation for the North. Kim seems to have judged it is not the time to surrender.

The two promised further continuous conversation. Therefore, it is unlikely that this event will knock the door to the nuclear war. The situation will be stuck for a while.

For Donald Trump, the next election is approaching. I expect him not to be reckless for excessive concerning about the vote.
