SEOUL: Many South Koreans were fuming on Friday after U.S. President Donald Trump cancelled a historic summit with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un, feeling they had been cheated of a chance of a lifetime to live in peace. “North Korea was in the process of doing everything that had been demanded of it. North and South Korea are technically still at war because their 1950-53 conflict ended in a truce, not a peace treaty. “It feels like Trump just knocked down all the efforts the two Koreas have put forward for the U.S.-North Korea summit. “I don’t think Trump is doing the right thing if he wants to win the Nobel Peace Prize.”Other South Koreans had concerns closer to home.
