First, nice fake quote. Making it look like you said what I've said 4 times now. LOL Do you really think you fool people with this crap?
And where is the "Trump playing the I want to bring our troops home card"?
He hasn't said that, he said: he would lay off the exercises.
1st, fake quote? i said it in post #175......
2nd, it was a direct quote from Trump's mouth in his post-summit press conference.

the united states agreeing to a denuclearization of the korean peninsula?
what this means is that if the US-NK negotiations end up a success, then the US would eventually withdraw its nuclear weaponry from south korea. in the same mold, the chinese have to be happy about an end of US military maneuvers in their backyard.
the north korean hedgehog as you call them is an annoyance for the United States, perhaps even a legitimate threat. but the true geostrategic power struggle always was and still is between China and the United States. In this sense, the whole North Korea issue has always been a welcome exucse for the americans to maintain a strong troop presence in the region, in chinas backyard.
if one is completely delusional like you, one might actually believe that Kim and his north koreans would enter a military alliance with the united states. if one is to believe in that, this would be the worst nightmare for the chinese. but the much more realistic and likely outcome of all of this is that the relationship between NK and the US and SK improves, tensions decrease and the american military presence in the region decreases, which will be in chinas interest.
AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.......... AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. wat?
i don't believe that in the slightest, that's the headline and the only point of the 4-point summary of the meeting that means anything.
i've been walking Ghot through a contradiction in his stances based on a hypothetical...
people like to talk about instability in the region, meanwhile SK who's had a north korean gun held to it's head for decades has the most stable economy and best projection of anyone in the region per capita.
