Key Quotes
“This is only the second time Kim has met another head of state (China’s Xi was first), and the first time any North Korean leader has entered South Korea, thus carrying hopes of a formal end to the Korean War. Of course, today is more about the cameras than a deal, but it is a Berlin Wall/Nixon to China kind of moment that we get increasingly few of nowadays – and is also a warm up for the even more pivotal Trump-Kim summit to be held in early June.”
