"Efforts to end the North Korean nuclear programme without significant changes to their situation are futile. The US should know this by now."

I don't think the US government are so naive as to not know this by now. I think both US\NK have accepted that it's a situation that cannot be easily considered "resolved" so instead each side heats\thaws relations as appropriate to suit their own particular needs at any given time.

Exactly, it's just another card in the deck to play as needed.
