North Korea
News, analysis, and opinions about the US relationship with North Korea and its dictator, Kim Jong Un.
I fake-interviewed a real North Korea propaganda book. Here’s what it told me.
After his summit with Kim Jong Un, the president held a lengthy press conference outlining what they discussed.
It’s the first time sitting leaders of the two countries have met face to face.

How will the most dramatic diplomatic moment of Trump’s presidency play out?
Yes, even worse than normal.
Both sides remain very far apart. The letter could reinforce that.
Maybe those coins will come in handy after all.
Here are four ways the Trump-Kim Jong Un meeting could go down.
The surprising weekend in US-North Korea diplomacy, explained.
North Korea even says some nice things about President Donald Trump. That made the president happy.
South Korean President Moon Jae-in personally invested in a US-North Korea summit. What now?
Trump’s goal — getting rid of North Korea’s nukes — was always impossible. Time to try something new.
He said South Korea and Japan are prepared too.
And you can get them at a discounted price!
It’s not great.
A visual explanation of the world’s most secretive, totalitarian, and dangerous government.
Trump lies and says nonsense all the time. We need to remember that.
“I felt a wonderful dialogue was building between you and me.”
The Trump-Kim meeting is in jeopardy. Here’s what might happen if it falls through.
There’s actually a serious problem here.
“Trump is loathed here.”
He’s the top military official in the Pacific — and a big China hawk.
South Korea wanted out of a joint military exercise that could anger Kim Jong Un. The US accepted.
One part John Bolton, another part a more fundamental US-North Korea dispute.
Oh, and it insulted John Bolton.
“It’s unlikely they kill the summit, but clearly something is going on.”
A possible nuclear agreement, a potential historic concession, and perhaps a change in America’s stance toward North Korea.
All he does is lie and break promises. This will be no different.
A US-North Korea nuclear deal might be coming together.
Trump and Kim have picked a venue and set a date.
He couldn’t stop the president from abandoning the Iran deal.
Trump won’t say he wants the Nobel Prize. But he does want something much bigger.
Former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson has spent decades trying to bring home Americans held hostage in North Korea.
This is a big win for their families — and President Donald Trump.
“If I were the North Koreans, and Trump pulled out of the deal with Iran, why should I make an agreement?”
That’d be a big win for Trump.
It’d be a highly symbolic place to hold a historic summit.
And a debate over whether President Trump should win a Nobel Peace Prize.
