I’ve got all the time in the world .” This is a serious mischaracterization of the dimension of time in the negotiations. A temporary pause in testing, after all, is hardly the same as a freeze in the nuclear program.

The bottom line is Kim now has it both ways: He enjoys the diplomatic spotlight and also gets to continue advancing his nuclear weapons program.
