Korea is still a pariah nation, still under sanctions, has the same "allies" (really their allies see them as a useful idiot) and the same foes.

Of course source is going to play a role. Listening about this today on NPR it is possible that this is going to strengthen out ties with China while China may begin to withdraw support from NK. We're extending a olive branch in  way it has never been extended before and the NK's allies are seeing who is not willing to compromise.

If you would have gave me a list of names of poster and asked me what their opinion of the summit was; I could have told you without reading a single post in this thread.

IMO it hurt nothing, we tried, NK balked, so we said FU and left. The only negative I've heard (other that trolls) is it legitimizes NK. WTF does that even mean?
