U.S. Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton, braved heavy sniping from Fox News while approaching a podium to make the announcement, describing the move as a "major breakthrough" which heralded peace in our time. South Korean liberal populists said it proved the value of continued engagement with the North, despite earlier misunderstandings which were the fault of South Korean conservatives.
The U.S. and South Korea are hopeful that the North Korea's nuclear program suspension in exchange for food will lead to a permanent solution to the tense situation with the Pyongyang regime, which could even lead to a permanent peace treaty and a normalization of relations between the two Koreas. "It would be great not to have to live in fear of having our islands bombed and ships sunk by a nuclear-armed neighbor" said a senior South Korean official.
Intelligence experts say that after dinner, North Korea is likely to feel tired, forget what nuclear weapons research it was doing in the afternoon, and maybe go out to catch a movie before returning home to bed.
