NK to dismantle Nuke Testing site

I think the only way this happens is if we agree to move U.S. troops out of S. Korea. Also, the hard part is determining how many nukes N. Korea actually has. Most projections I have seen suggest 20-60, but it's difficult to determine, and this gives them the ability to mask things. From what I understand, their testing site collapsed and they do not have money to build a new one, so shutting it down officially is symbolically important, but won't have much real world change, at least for the time being.

It largely comes down to how much pressure Trump puts on China to keep up the sanctions and what China is willing to put up with.

Is NK removing their nukes or just closing the site?

Anyway I would support UKorea under neutral and usa troops going home too. Would neocons allow that? Doubtful.

The North Korean underground testing went awry last Autumn (2017), when a nuclear test blew a hole inside the mountain, and caused it to collapse into itself. The blown apart nuclear test site caused damage that can be observed with satellite photographs. This is probably why Kim Jong-Un agreed to halt nuclear testing in North Korea, because the test explosion has already disabled their testing program.

This news article explains it: "North Korea’s nuclear test site has collapsed ... and that may be why Kim Jong-un suspended tests."
