Trump's personal diplomacy couldn't solve the North Korean nuclear conundrum first time around. What are his chances now?
To say that President-elect Donald Trump has a lot of plans for his second term would be a gross understatement. He has vowed to implement the largest deportation operation in American history, secure the U.S.-Mexico border and negotiate a peace settlement between Ukraine and Russia. Yet for Trump, all of these items may be minor when compared to one other issue: resolving the North Korea nuclear conundrum.
20, the perennial North Korean nuclear problem will be as thorny as ever. And probably thornier: Kim is far less desperate for a nuclear agreement and an end to U.S. sanctions now than he was during Trump's first administration. First, Kim hasn’t forgotten his previous meetings with Trump. He sees the summitry of 2018 and 2019 as a waste of time at best and a personal humiliation at worst.
