• Nuclear negotiations with North Korea have hit a huge speed bump, and the reason is reportedly that President Donald Trump has yet to make good on a promise to Kim Jong Un.
• Trump, according to Vox, assured Kim that he would sign a declaration ending the Korean War, but his administration has not done so. Instead, the Trump administration has made unilateral demands for North Korean denuclearization.

President Donald Trump reportedly promised North Korean leader Kim Jong Un that he would sign a declaration ending the Korean War once and for all. He hasn't, and now nuclear negotiations with North Korea are starting to fall apart. 

At the June 12 Singapore summit, Trump told Kim that he would sign a peace declaration soon after the meeting's conclusion, Vox reported Wednesday, citing two people familiar with discussions. Trump apparently made a similar agreement with the North Korean leader's right-hand man Kim Yong Chol when he visited the White House prior to the summit.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
