But many North Korea watchers dismissed the Singapore summit as a piece of political theatre that failed to produce a concrete roadmap to denuclearisation and stressed that the Hanoi meeting must deliver more. “The window for diplomatic progress with North Korea will not remain open indefinitely. The second summit … must emphasise substance over pageantry,” said Kelsey Davenport from the Arms Control Association.
