It's for the ongoing negotiations. ..however. .while I'm all for avoiding bloodshed, if the US goes along and makes a deal, this sets an incredibly dangerous precedent and of course everyone will want nukes etc. ..the only people winning from this are the north Koreans,the Chinese and the military industrial complex
