Prospects Mixed for Possible Trump-Kim Meeting | JQJO

As U.S. President Donald Trump prepares for his first Asia trip since returning to office, talk has intensified about a possible encounter with Kim Jong Un in South Korea, perhaps at Panmunjom around the Oct. 31-Nov. 1 APEC meetings. Officials and analysts are split: some see rising odds, noting suspended civilian tours and Kim’s comments about possible talks; others say Kim’s larger arsenal and ties with Russia and China blunt urgency. No logistics are visible. Even without a meeting, experts debate whether limited deals or renewed talks could still follow.
