Kim made offers, trump made sanctions. That good negotiations.

Can someone remind me when that state might have been? My reading of history is that international relations, especially international trade, have been determined by empires.
Empires have existed because they've been stronger than any opposition. The US empire is rapidly fading, and fading faster under Trump. China's empire is ascending. Russia's re-ascending.
What organization responsible for 'international law' is able to settle issues arising among the 3 (and possibly others)?
Is there a global group powerful enough to deal with issues among them?
But good on Putin for saying that; I just wish I could believe him.

You failed to include the former "Soviet Union" and its control over Eastern Europe. Maybe that's what Putin is really yearning for: "Return to the good 'ol days of the Soviet Empire".
Gee, we thought that's what the UN was for. But then it, as a global organization, it can't agree on anything, nor does it have the power to deal with issues. So what's the solution?
We knew all along Kim never intended to "denuclarize". All the so-called summit meetings with the U.S. and SK were all smoke and mirrors to buy time in order to get China and Russia support lined up. With China and Russia firmly backing NK, coupled with NK's new nuclear power and ICBM capability, Kim will demand a "demilitarization" of the DMZ, U.S. leaving the Peninsula and SK to disarm.....and then Unification of Korea under DPRK.....or else!
That will be the groundrules for a second DPRK-US summit meetings....if the US is foolish enough to agree to one.

Given Putin's previous statements that can be interpreted as anti-globalism (whatever that means), pro-nationalism, I'm a bit surprised he's talking about something called international law. Can any Putin or anti-globalist (whatever that means) supporters clarify what organization should be called upon to keep the 'strongest' from prevailing?
From one of Putin's outlets:

I don't think Trump acted in bad faith. I just think he's an incompetent negotiator at this level.
