Korean leaders make a summit

President Moon in South Korea performed a meeting with Kim John-un, the leader of North Korea, at Pyongyang, just recently.

It is for the third time for the South Korean leader to make a summit with the North. They declared to terminate the military conflict between them, though there was no official treaty made. The North mentioned the possibility of denuclearization of the Peninsula. But Kim did not clarify the detailed schedule of dissemination of relevant facilities.


Anyway, the threat of war among the Peninsula has withdrawn. On the other hand, the relaxation of the situation will make the US' presence in the Peninsula weakened. Though Donald Trump celebrated the summit, I guess he is not delighted with this outcome.

Considering the past attitude of North Korea, it is possible that it restarts the threatening anytime it has something to make a negotiation. In this case, the US would not like to be involved. Moon should be prepared for such a scenario.
