Secretary of State Pompeo Open to Creating a “Peace Mechanism” on the Korean Peninsula
|Secretary of State Pompeo is using the term “peace mechanisms” now which is a term the Moon administration often uses:
With the United States and North Korea striving for a give-and-take compromise in their summit next week, a declaration of a formal end to the 1950-53 Korean War, or a peace statement, is surfacing as a possible concession from Washington.

The North has long eyed such a political declaration, which is not legally binding, to end decades of enmity with the U.S., ensure its regime security and ultimately sign a peace treaty that some say could undercut the rationale for American troop presence on the peninsula.
At his second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, slated for Feb. 27-28 in Hanoi, President Donald Trump is expected to discuss the possibility of ending the war that was ceased only with an armistice agreement, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said last Thursday.
“Remember we not only discussed denuclearization, but we talked about creating security mechanisms, peace mechanisms on the Korean Peninsula,” Pompeo told Fox News. “I hope the two leaders have a chance to talk about that as well. I fully expect that they will.”
You can read much more at the link, but the Moon administration has been pushing for a peace mechanism in order to advance their goal of creating a confederation with North Korea. A peace treaty ending the Korean War is one of the first steps to making this happen.

Bad credit? No credit? Target of international sanctions?
Well, nobody walks at Crazy Mike’s International Dinette Set Warehouse.
All they needed was “Se Habla Esperanto!”
I thought the US army and the alliance were the peace mechanism.
The US flag should be on the left.
Combine peace and the green deal….ride on the peace train!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkTQri3a4Gg
