Trump, Kim bet big on personal relationship at second summit 1 SHARES Share it! Many analysts believe North Korea won’t commit to significant disarmament unless punishing U.S.-led economic sanctions are eased. For Trump, a deal that eases the North Korean threat could hand him a big foreign-policy achievement in the midst of domestic troubles. In the run-up to the second summit, Trump has indicated a more flexible stance, saying he is in no rush to secure North Korea’s denuclearization. Vietnam, relishing its role as mediator, could serve as a model for North Korea as it seeks a path out of isolation.
