Kim Yo Jong has said: “It would be easier and more favorable for the U.S. to rack its brains to make our nukes no threat to the U.S., rather than racking it to dispossess our nukes. We do not have the slightest intention to pose a threat to the

"U.S. and Comrade Chairman has already made it clear to President Trump. Everything will go smoothly if they leave us alone and make no provocation on us.”
The substance of discussion b/t leaders often is top-secret but Kim Yo Jong in complete transparency reveals the crux of it

to the entire world, similar to President Trump releasing the phone call with Zelensky in complete transparency to counter the forthwith assault by the mainstream narrative that ensued during the impeachment proceedings. The world now knows that DPRK doesn't "have the slightest

"intention to pose a threat to the U.S." The truth has been published the world wide and the key to resolving the 'nuclear conflict' lies in Kim Yo Jong's statement:
“It would be easier and more favorable for the U.S. to rack its brains to make our nukes no threat to the U.S.,

"rather than racking it to dispossess our nukes."
Within the parameters of logical reasoning the inference is clear: A weaker nuclear state is making the proposition to a stronger stronger nuclear state: "Let us keep the minimum nuclear deterrence capability we believe we need

to ensure our survival and we will formally end all further development in our nuclear & ICBM programs." On top of her revealing to the world the gist of Trump's and Kim's conversation/s (it's easily inferred too that Kim Jong Un asked his sister to pen her statement) Kim Yo Jong

suggests this diplomatic path forward that DPRK, stately, is 100% amenable to. How can anyone refute DPRK's aspirations to formally be at peace w/ the U.S. as a limited nuclear state? Sanctions would lift, inter-Korean trade will take off and DPRK's economy will open up to

the world to experience economic prosperity finally - 70 years after signing the Armistice. All that's required for this kind of deal to happen is for trust to be established in US-DPRK relations. Peace, economic prosperity & normalized relations w/ the world as a limited nuclear

state is everything DPRK wants. If you listen to Yoon & others tho you'd think DPRK is bent on reinvading South Korea to reunite the Korean Peninsula under socialism like it tried the first time. I think they learned their lesson. I bet that were to Trump and Kim have another

leader-to-leader conversation this issue might be resolved once and for all. Would Kim Jong Un tell Trump that DPRK has no intention of ever invading South Korea to reunite the peninsula under socialism? And when & why it came to this decision? We'll have to wait and see. I

believe in the sincerity of Kim Yo Jong's words. Which is why I think the US accepting a limited nuclear DPRK as she hints at or suggests is the best - the only - path forward. I can envision the US and DPRK becoming friends like the US and Japan have after WW2. Put the Korean

War behind us and opportunities will open up like we've never seen before. The US will get contracts to mine DPRK's rare earth minerals, American farming can help boost DPRK's agricultural sector, US and DPRK markets will exchange luxury goods, we can help DPRK w/ its energy grid

and so on. Peace is the best investment there is. To reap the benefits of peace is infinitely better than incurring the costs of war. It's clear there'll be nigh to zero progress in inter-Korean relations under Yoon for the next 5 years. Another Trump-Kim summit make world

if it acts on the suggestion made by Kim Yo Jong and inks a deal wherein DPRK effectively agrees to make permanent the double moratorium Kim made by capping - putting a maximum limit on - its nuclear & ICBM programs and, theoretically, agreeing to a lower limit beyond which is

untenable to DPRK. The world should hope that such a deal could be made and that security, stability & peace be brought to the Korean Peninsula this way. Me - I don't like hearing Yoon talking about 'preemptive strike' on the DPRK. We cannot have war again, we have to make ☮️.
