Trump's Bid for Peace in North Korea

Trump believes he can bring North Koreato the table again. In recent chat with Sean Hannity, current U. S. President spontaneously mentioned touching base with Kim Jong Un if re-electedif for no other reason than to proactively tackle security concerns. A meaningful argument could be made that this might not be the first time Trump has seemed inclined to re-engage in diplomatic talks with North Korea. In his introduction remarks in 2017, Trump did not mince words when he referred to North Korea as a nuclear powerhouse, in the hopes that Kim would see this as a green light to engage in fresh talks. There is quite a difference between saying you'll try to talk and actually opening the door of conversation currently. But why does Kim Jong Unseem so reluctant to talk with Trump anymore, you ask? Well, for one, he feels pretty secure,now Putin is on his side. A mutual defense pact inked last yearbetween Russia and North Korea. Seemed to have shifted the balance of power in Kim Jong Il's favor - military support from Russia being on the table. The special forces have already deployed to the Kursk region. In exchange for his support in what he sees as Putin's battle forUkraine, Kim Jong Un expects backing from his new ally. Who has Trump trusted in the past? Uncannily it was alsoSouth Korea, even though a conservative later closed that route to peace. The Kaesong Industrial Zone (KIZ) was an interesting experiment, Sean Hannity. A project that startedback when Kim Dae Jung first became South Korea's President. With its establishment came the start of a unique relationship between the two Koreas. This special zone located just an hour’s drive from Seoul provided direct road and rail access to the South and made it easier to facilitate this economic cooperation. But Why was North Korea's relationship linking up with the Kaesong Industrial Zone so important to South Korea? South Korea's manufacturing companies employed educated and skilled North Korean laborers who were fluent in Korean. In exchange, North Koreans were paid in U. S. dollars, providing the Kim Jong Un regime with the world's primary reserve currency. Producing manufactured goods for profit provided a direct economic path for both countries. However, this unique experiment failed to continue with the rise of more conservative leadership in South Korea. It is suggested that Trump could encourage the Koreas to reopen the KIZ for Kim Jong Un to view it as a new era in diplomatic relations. Trump needs to do is wave the green flag for the KIZ, and South Korea would jump at this financialopportunity, offering bullish aid. But he must ensure American business are not a loser from the USA.
