Sailfish1, I am not talking about the 1950s.  I am talking about more current history starting in 1985. You obviously did not check the website I provided you.   It contains a very long chronology of diplomatic efforts between the U.S. and North Korea and Six-Party Talks involving the U.S., China, Russia, Japan, South Korea and North Korea regarding developments in North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs and the efforts to end them, since 1985.  These were pretty high-level talks and not the kind of talks to which you send lackeys who have no authority to speak for the sending countries.   Read it before replying.
