Correspondent Sjoerd den Daas earlier this week about the North Korean missile tests:
“Under Kim, the policy for a long time was to provoke as much as possible in order to get the Americans around the table. He also succeeded, he held talks with then-US President Donald Trump and South Korean President Moon Jae-in. After that it calmed down a bit, but on balance the situation has not changed.
North Korea is doing badly economically and corona seems to hit the country very hard. That’s why Kim then again to increase the pressure to get the US to start the dialogue again. Only in Washington under President Joe Biden there is little incentive to return to the negotiating table. Because Kim’s promises have not turned out to be worth much.”
