Mitoji Yabunaka, who served as Japan’s envoy to six-party talks with North Korea more than a decade ago. He says U.S. and Japanese interests could diverge as nuclear talks progress.

quote of the day
Japan fears a half-baked, deceptive agreement which leads to the Trump administration taking a soft line on North Korea by removing economic sanctions without serious progress on disarmament. That would be the nightmare scenario.

Is any of this 3 way peace process (NK, SK, and the USA) any real concern of Japan?
The only input from Japan so far to this peace process has been aledged abductions. (Japan should be careful about that one, Japanese law seem to take hostages).
I am sure that at the next summit, more progress will be made towards a united Korea, better relations with the USA, and a move towards disarmament, and a more peaceful world.

LOL. Stockholm syndrome, noun, feelings of trust or affection felt in many cases of kidnapping or hostage-taking by a victim towards a captor.
I respect your opinion, but not your sour rhetoric. Sorry, but losing an election has nothing to do with Stockholm syndrome.

"Donny" was responsible for 'Rocket Man' launching them in the first place, let's not forget that.
Bow to Caesar! Why is this President and his supporters so desperate to for baubles & praise? How desperately sad is it that he has to post a list of his own accomplishments?
Lots of us haven't succumbed to Stockholm Syndrome yet.

"Donny" will happily continue to see to it that NoKor ceases launching missiles over Hokkaido. If he accomplishes that small step, Japan will be safer. Thank him for it!
If he accomplishes a little more toward nuclear disarmament or the abduction issue, all you need to do is give him credit!

Donny will happily sacrifice his premier ally in Asia in order to appear like a fake global peacemaker to his whooping gullibles

That’s exactly what’s going to happen. Learn to negotiate harderwill be the lesson learned......maybe. Dictate no, negotiate yes.

Better prepare for it. Do they really think this next summit will lead to progress ?
