I'm sure they will denuclearize in the same way North Korea did after Trump negotiated.

[-] PanArab@lemmy.ml 26 points 2 months ago

Why would North Korea denuclearize when the US still hasn't?

[-] Don_alForno@feddit.org 12 points 2 months ago

But Trump made a deal. The best deal in the history of deals.

[-] PanArab@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 months ago

Did the US uphold its end of the deal?

[-] Don_alForno@feddit.org 11 points 2 months ago

As far as I remember, the US interpreted "their end of the deal" differently than NK did.

That's exactly my point: Trump will "negotiate" the same way, will brag about a "deal" in the same way, and nothing will change in the same way, because both sides aren't really interested in substantial change in the same way.

And they will do it again. And again and again and again.

Deals with the US aren't worth the paper they're written on.

The ethnic cleansing of North America happened one treaty at a time.

USians can't possibly comprehend other countries having agency.
