We are witnessing history. I sure hope it leads to a lasting peace.
Around 2,000 journalists are gathered at a media center in Ilsan, South Korea to cover the summit.
The room was tense as the journalists massed inside the Kintex Conference Center waited for their first sight of Kim Jong Un.
An audible gasp ran through the room as Kim walked down the steps towards the military demarcation line, followed by a loud cheers and applause from South Koreans in the room as the historic handshake took place and Kim stepped onto the south side.
It has led to an agreement to negotiate an end to the Korean War and “full denuclearization”, along with eventual reunification.
The question is whether it’s worth the paper it was written on. Given the history of the Kims, I’m not betting on it.
