One year ago this week, the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons was opened for signature at the @UN.

Mr. @realDonaldTrump - UNSC mtg is about "nonpro of WMD." Iran's nuclear activities are but one of many WMD threats. The 2015 #IranDeal put Iran's program in a box; your decision to violate the JCPOA is nonproliferation malpractice bit.ly/2ujaJLU twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…

Last Tuesday, the State Department declined to certify a Russian aircraft for the Open Skies treaty. On Wednesday, it reversed course. So, what happened? defensenews.com/global/europe/…

What do Kim and Moon mean by "corresponding measures" by the U.S. to help facilitate progress on DPRK denuclearization? Here is the answer: "Declare End to Korean War, South’s Leader Urges U.S." via @NYTimes nytimes.com/2018/09/20/wor… twitter.com/ferencdv/statu…

Few people know Stanislav Petrov, yet millions of lives were saved because of him. It's an epic Cold War story about a military officer who averts accidental nuclear destruction.

President Moon still has to walk a fine - and very long - line between the DPRK and US. Can he cajole two hard-headed leaders into doing the hard, detailed work of coordinating simultaneous small steps forward? 5/5

This leaves it unclear whether we got any closer to breaking the impasse over which comes first, a peace declaration, as Kim insists, or concrete steps to denuclearize, as Washington insists. 3/x

1/ In @WSJ, ACA chair @TMCountryman notes, "It’s a positive thing if Mr Kim made some explicit commitments on steps towards denuclearization, but the fact it was immediately made conditional makes it unclear if we’re very close to breaking the impasse." ow.ly/rfeG30lT2vu pic.twitter.com/si1PU7SIG4

Well, there are lots of ?s to be resolved. But here are some initial takeaways based on the evidence I see so far. First, Moon is smartly doing what he can to advance Panmeunjon Summit goals and to help create a positive atmosphere for U.S.-DPRK denuclearization/peace talks. 1/

Kim reiterates the action-for-action approach for pursuing the goals of the Trump-Kim summit, which is no surprise. Ball now in firmly White House court about whether it will agree to decl. on end of war in order to move denuclearization process along. twitter.com/Reuters/status…
