Off their meds again: North Korea abruptly withdraws staff from liaison office at border with the South
2019-03-23
[SCMP] North Korea pulled its staff out of an inter-Korean liaison office on Friday, Seoul said, weeks after leader Kim Pudge Jong-un
...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished...
’s summit with US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
ended without agreement.

The office in the Northern city of Kaesong was opened in September as the two Koreas knitted closer ties, but the South’s vice unification minister Chun Hae-sung told news hounds Pyongyang had "notified the South they are pulling out of the liaison office".

The decision had been taken "in accordance with an order from an upper command", he said, adding: "They said they didn’t care whether we stayed at the liaison office or not."

#1  The media will spin this as a HUUUUGE loss for Trump, of course. But I read it as Pudge upping the ante for the next round of negotiations.
