What are you watching out for now that the summit is back on . Reporter well, it was interesting today to hear the y esident try to set expectations lower by calling this a process. Hes saying its going to take tre than one meeting to actually get to an agreement. He bought himself some juplomatic wiggle room there to justify what he said he was going to do, which is hold off on new sanctions. The type of significant gestures that would keep this process going would be getting north korea to do something irreversible, like ship out or destroy some of its missiles and ultimately agree to let in weapons inspectors to verify just how extensive kim jonguns arsenal actually is. The president also said today, you know, it might be possible an end the state of war on the korean peninsula. To north korea, that sounds a lot like a concession or a hint that he might be considering drawing down u. S. Troops there. Ys that not on the table at this point. Jeff. Li glor that certainly sounded like an enormous statement when it happened. Talking logistics here inside that room, who who is going to be there in singapore .
