Jordan Jimenez - North Korea and Trump Summit

   The infamous Kim Jong-Un stated that on Friday he would stop testing nuclear weapons, closing sites where tests were held, and even suspend tests of North Korea's nuclear program. This very interesting/exciting announcement was released just a week ahead of the planned meeting with the South Korean president and the summit between Kim and Trump. In response to this, Trump took to twitter (like usual) and tweeted, "they have agreed to denuclearization (so great for the World), site closure, & no more testing!"
   I think that this is a great thing that's happening, but I'm also skeptical at the same time. There's been moments in the past where North Korea agrees to talk, but in the end there's no compromise and then we go back to threatening each other with nuclear warfare. There's no telling for sure whether Trump and Kim will reach an agreement, but I'd like to be optimistic and hope that this situation works out for the best because it would be a moment to go down in history for sure.
