I have a question. Actually two.
Do we need to build up our missile defenses against a country that no longer poses a nuclear threat?
Will the forthcoming DoD Missile Defense Review note that North Korea is no longer a nuclear threat?

So you'll cancel the Missile Defense Agency's plans to build a very expensive third site for our unreliable Ground-Based Missile Defense system, and direct Congress to delete the $3.6 billion it recently added to MDA's budget specifically in response to the North Korean threat? twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…

This is frankly amazing: Trump says North Korea ‘no longer’ a nuclear threat as he returns to Washington washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…

This 💯.The proper comparison is not nuclear war, but what a real pressure campaign and diplomatic process could have produced. twitter.com/mikehfuchs/sta…

Most important thing in Maas' speech wasn't the dig at Trump, but the steadily escalating language that Germany is using about China: "We need a common strategy for dealing with China's power political ambitions, including for resisting targeted attempts at dividing us". twitter.com/marceldirsus/s…

I think that depends on if he'll feel like he's being stonewalled by US demands—and thinks getting Trump back in the room with him will be the way to get what he wants. (Likely.)

It is! But POTUS moving on to other natsec agenda items and leaving the NK portfolio to his lieutenants is what I meant, not abandonment—allow Sung Kim/State to start sweating the details and moving past the Singapore declaration.

Point isn't that USG writ large should close book on DPRK; rather that it could be a good thing if Trump steps back and lets his lieutenants pick up the process from here. Will keep US-DPRK engagement going without the chaos/uncertainty that comes from POTUS taking an interest.

Moon's peace process has 1) come early in his term (unlike Roh Moo-hyun's 2007 attempt), 2) has broad public support, and 3) can see consolidation with broad legislative support too. Obstacles on the multilateral sanctions front not insignificant though.

Keep an eye on ROK domestic politics; conservatives are in trouble: “The ruling Democratic Party of Korea (DPK) swept the local elections as well as by-elections for 12 empty National Assembly seats” koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/201…
