Donald Trump has now more urgent domestic headache than seeking substantial progress in talks with Kim Jong-un.

North Korea will again use the disruption of its nuclear talks with the US to increase pressure, combined with further missiles launches.

The year 2019 marks the visits of top leaders from countries which Vietnam has good relations with.

At least until the presidential elections in the US, Trump and Moon Jae-in will not make any significant moves toward North Korea.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was elected General Secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea (WPK) at the 8th Congress of the WPK, that took place on January 5-10.
