Blog Post #5
Summary: Recently, North Korea has become interestingly interested in diplomacy after a series of nuclear tests. However, a recent ROK-US Air Force drill was conducted, and a warning was issued by Kim Jong Un threatening to suspend the June 12 summit in Singapore. This has occurred due to a recent agreement, the Panmonjum declaration which they agreed to stop all hostile acts against each other. However, talks are set to resume this week.
Analysis: This is somewhat controversial. It really depends on how you want to look at it. More hostile minded people have assumed that this a blatant attempt to get more concessions from South Korea or the US. I personally see it like that. It really does look like a blatant attempt to do so because Kim Jong Il did the same thing.
