North Koreas Kim Jong Un intends to invite U.S. and South Korean experts to observe the shutdown of the countrys nuclear test site next month, according to officials in Seoul. During his meeting with South Koreas Moon Jae-in on Friday, Kim reportedly vowed to open to the international community the nuclear sites dismantling. The United States, though inherently hostile to North Korea, will get to know once our talk begins that I am not the kind of person who will use nuclear weapons against the South or the United States across the Pacific, Kim was quoted as saying by Moons press secretary, Yoon Young-chan. There is no reason for us to possess nuclear weapons if an end to the war and non aggression are promised and mutual trust is built with the U.S., he said. Kim said two of the larger tunnels at the Punggye-ri test site are still in a very good condition, despite experts saying much of the site had collapsed and been rendered unstable.

That info no one is privy to.

This about face from Kim Jong Un is hard to believe.
