Nalapat’s insight March 2018:
Focusing on example of Ho Chi Minh makes sense for Kim...North Korea has been working a web of alternative pathways towards securing money & strategic material, even as conventional paths r being closed down by UNSC sanctions. sundayguardianlive.com/opinion/13072-…

Nalapat in March 2019: “Kim on course to resume nuclear tests after Trump’s #HanoiSummit walkout...North Koreans claim that during the talks in Vietman, Donald Trump was ‘clearly not the person in command’ on the US side.”
& thus Kim Jong Un resumed tests sundayguardianlive.com/news/kim-cours…

7 December @MD_Nalapat “Those in touch with the thinking of Kim Jong Un claim that he is now “at the end of his patience” with US President Donald J. Trump.” ... they claim fresh demonstration of “deadly deterrent” capabilities is “only a few weeks away”.
