Choosing PNG as a meeting site? What a paean to international insanity. Can you imagine the organizers sitting at table and approving millions of security dollars for a doomed "meeting"? Is veneer really so important?
Australia is an ally. Tasmania is the only expat site I would consider. What's to talk with expansionist China? The only more absurd meetings were those of Trump's Charm Offensive with Kim. Is there anything in the political realm beyond performance art?
