In a sudden and dramatic shift, former President Donald Trump has once again claimed that a deal is imminent with North Korea, just hours after retracting a threat of military strikes against the rogue nation. The latest development comes after a week of escalating tensions, with Trump warning that the US would take military action if the country continued to pursue its nuclear ambitions. However, in a surprise move, Trump's administration announced that a deal was "close" and that negotiations were "going very well." The sudden reversal has left observers scrambling to understand the motivations behind Trump's sudden change in tone, and whether the US is truly on the verge of a breakthrough in its long-stalled talks with North Korea.
