AB - This paper is written to analyze the summit meeting between the US President Donald J. Trump and the North Korean Chairman Kim Jong-un at Hannoi, Vietnam, on February 27-28, 2019. For this purpose, it revisits a few theories on negotiation and reviews the going-ons at the Hanoi summit meeting. It analyzes the meeting using the concepts in negotiation theories such as end state, decision making style, types of negotiation, BATNA and a walk-away decision of the US North Korean sides respectively.
As a result, this paper found that the Hannoi negotiation was destined to collapse because of a huge difference between the end states of the US and North Korea, in which the US wanted a total dismantlement of North Korean nuclear weapons and North Korea possession of nuclear weapons. The US adopted the bottom-up decision making style and hard-positioning strategy, which were totally different from those in Singapore summit meeting in June 2018. Furthermore, the US surprised North Korea by sudden decision to walk away. In this sense, the US managed to know the North Korean intention to possess nuclear weapons, but North Korea failed to lift UN sanctions at the meeting.
