U.S. President Donald Trump contradicted himself Friday, announcing via an executive order that North Korea continues to pose “an unusual and extraordinary threat” to the United States — a statement that comes less than a week after he triumphantly declared that the North’s nuclear weapons were “no longer” a problem.

In the executive order, the president extended for one year the so-called national emergency with respect to the nuclear-armed North, reauthorizing economic restrictions against the country.


Although expected, the declaration — made following his historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore — comes just nine days after Trump tweeted, “There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea.”

The national emergency, which has been renewed by every president since it was put in place in June 2008 during the George W. Bush administration, highlights the continued tensions between the two nations, despite disputed claims by Trump that the conflict has been resolved.
It states that “the existence and risk of proliferation of weapons-usable fissile material” and the actions and policies of the North Korean government “continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States.”

This is a story written in Japan. Probably their version of the democrap propaganda wing.

Japan has a historic, long standing adversarial interaction with Korea, and N. Korea represents a serious and ominous danger to Japan right now!
Thus the article written in Japan , will and did by design try to bring back an adversarial interaction between USA and N. Korea.
In short,the article was pure propaganda, written with a designated purpose, not written to present truth..-Tyr

The 'new relations' of US/NK including the tough talk regarding keeping the sanctions in place, give China a chance to rebuild some of the problems they've had with NK and the rhetorical spats between NK and US prior. During the same period, US was pushing China, including the imposition of tariffs. Now, China and NK are once again reaffirming their relationship-one that proved devastating to the US when that relationship led to the 'truce' between NK and SK. It would be extraordinary to have a win/win regarding NK and Chinese trade imbalance, in all likelihood one is going to have to give or at least make room for compromise:

It's the same story that appeared in American and Korean newspapers. Trump has always been fairly schizo.

NK is a threat, until full denuclearization is acutally accomplished. What is the issue here?

It's trump. That's the issue.

I think I understand the issue. After his meeting with Kim, the leftist media was all over him for sucking up to a brutal dictator and how he is such an idiot for trusting him. Now , suddenly his agrees with their position that NK is still dangerous. Since deep down the left understands how demented and bi-polar they actually are, they can only assume that if Pres Trump agrees with them that he has to be as insane as they are!

petey. Those sanctions you happily declared "back on", were never actually terminated. But then. You don't really want anyone to know that...do ya? The President has said...from the outset.
The sanctions would remain in place until we see whether ROCKET MAN is really serious, or just doing as he has before...LIP SERVICE. North Korea NEVER STOPPED being an extraordinary Threat. But the LEFT LEANING WEENIES who sell propaganda called FAKE NEWS...like you, simply CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

It's the same story that appeared in American and Korean newspapers. Trump has always been fairly schizo.Incorrect. He's rather predictable. If I agree to make peace and you agree to disarm and we'll meet again on the matter, the threat didn't disappear because "you promised".

For security reasons, extending the status quo as far as National defense and/or global strategic defense makes sense.

For the purposes of throwing dirt at Trump, saying he flipped is typical of the leftwingnut MSM. They grasp at any and all straws. I cannot believe how petty the left has gotten. What a shame. They used to stand for something before they sold out to the pussies in the late 60s.
