G-7 was just a bunch of huffing and puffing. No real new policy best I could tell.
The NK summit is interesting. I wonder what Kim is going to demand. People act like we need Chinas help to "take care of" the NK problem, but China loves having NK as a buffer between the west friendly SK and their own borders. China is in no hurry for a new regime in NK that is more friendly with the west. Also want to point out that a big reason this summit is moving forward is because the new President of SK, Moon Jae-in, is much more interested in making it work that former SK leaders.
