北, 폼페이오와 '만족한 합의' 후 핵실험장 '폐기' 선언... 속도붙는 한반도 비핵화 논의 PART 2

This measure comes after the U.S. Secretary of State made his second visit to Pyongyang last week.
Not only did we see the release of Americans that have been detained in North Korea,... but also... the regime's state media reporting that Kim and Pompeo reached a (quote)"satisfactory consensus" at their meeting.

Daniel, there's actually more to that.
Take a listen to this remark from Pyongyang's state-run TV.

"After hearing President Trump's message, our leader Kim Jong-un highly evaluated and appreciated President Trump's willingness to solve the issue through dialogue and a new alternative option."

Here we can learn that Washington has offered Pyongyang (quote)"a new alternative option"... and the two sides were both satisfied with it.
So what is this "new alternative option"... and does this have anything to do with the announcement over the weekend?
Take a listen to these experts for their views on what this "new alternative option" could be:

"The U.S. could have shown flexibility to North Korea... that, if they both set a clear-cut deadline of achieving complete denuclearization,... then the process of denuclearization could be broken into multiple stages just as the North wants.

"If we look at what Pompeo said at press briefings following his visit to North Korea, it seems the 'new' content could be about lifting economic sanctions or normalizing relations at a fast pace. Lifting Washington's unilateral sanctions and international sanctions and removing Pyongyang from the list of sponsors of terror create an environment where investment could be made through international funds."
