What Role Will China Play in the US-North Korea Talks?
The Los Angeles World Affairs Council hosts a talk on the future of China's involvement in U.S.-North Korea talks.
When:
January 16, 2019 6:30pm to 8:30pm
Where
Kim Jong-un made a brief visit to China to meet with President Xi Jinping earlier this week, but the brevity in no way suggests the trip was not important. Experts believe it likely that Kim and Xi discussed how to pressure the US and President Trump into easing the sanction on North Korea and bringing the US-China trade war to a swift end. President Trump has confirmed that a second summit is being negotiated. What role will China and President Xi play in the forthcoming talks?
