Expert's take on Trump's consideration of Panmunjom for North Korea-U.S. summit location
- 6 years ago
President Trump seems to be liking the idea of holding his upcoming summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un at the inter-Korean border village of Panmunjom,... thrusting the tiny village into the global spotlight once more.
We want to get an expert's opinion on all the latest developments.
Doctor Mark P. Barry is the Associate Editor of the International Journal on World Peace and an adjunct professor of management at several schools,... and he's joining us from New York.
He's also a North Korea expert with personal experiences with North Korea's Kim family,... having met with the regime's founder Kim Il-sung and his son Kim Jong-il in the past.
Dr. Barry, thanks for joining us.
In your mind, how likely is it that the North Korea-U.S. summit will take place at the same location as the inter-Korean summit?
Is it a viable option or just a throwaway tweet from President Trump?
Speculation on the potential summit location has been building for weeks... and it's reaching fever pitch now. In your opinion, how big of an impact will the venue have on the outcome of the talks between Trump and Kim?
President Trump has until May 12th to make up his mind on the Iran nuclear deal, but it looks like he wants it scrapped. If he pulls out,... would this have a positive or adverse impact on the upcoming Pyongyang-Washington summit?
Thank you for your insights today, I hope to speak to you again.
