Please use a relative pronoun with an objective case.

The summit conference between the U.S. and North Korea, which we were expecting to take place next month, has suddenly been canceled by President Trump. Reportedly, it's because North Korea recently gave a defiant attitude to the U.S. I hope that they will soon restart the discussion toward the conference.

自然な表現

The summit conference between the U.S. and North Korea, which we were expecting to take place next month, has suddenly been canceled by President Trump. Reportedly, it's because North Korea has recently shown a defiant attitude to the U.S. I hope that they will soon restart the discussion about having the conference.

1. This is a more natural tense and word choice.
2. In this situation I feel this is a better way to express what is happening.
That's a good use of a relative pronoun. Do you think it's likely that the two countries will ever reach an agreement?

I'm not sure about it, but it is said that the U.S. still has the intention to discuss with North Korea. If North Korea makes concessions to a certain extent, there is a possibility. It seems like a game which has a winner and a loser. From my point of view, President Trump would be a winner in the game.

1. There can only be one winner in a two horse race.
It seems to me that Trump and Kim Jong-Un have similar personalities, which will hinder this process. They both seem very stubborn and keen to present a strong image, even if it causes huge problems. Why do you think Trump will be the winner?

Basically, each condition is totally different as the U.S. is the leading country of the world whereas North Korea is one of the developing countries. Though North Korea might have the nerve to fight against the U.S., the gap of the military force between two countries is so huge. Even if a weaker boy tries to challenge a stronger boy, it will end up in vain.

1. 'in' is the correct preposition here.
2. You are referring to two specific countries.
Oh right, yes it makes sense that the stronger economy would win. Do you think this is why North Korea is pushing Trump away from having the summit, because they are scared to lose?

No, I don't think so. The decision maker of the cancellation is not North Korea but Trump. I suppose that North Korea didn't expect Trump to cancel the summit conference, so Kim Jong-Un was able to carry out his self-assured stance. This was the big mistake made by North Korea.

No, I don't think so. The decision maker for the cancellation is not North Korea but Trump. I suppose that North Korea didn't expect Trump to cancel the summit conference, so Kim Jong-Un was able to carry out his self-assured stance. This was the big mistake made by North Korea.

1. This is a better choice of preposition in this context.
Oh I see, so now Kim Jong-Un may appear to be less powerful as a result. What do you think will happen next?

Now all Trump can do is just waiting for the decision by North Korea because he's already showed the intention to continue the discussion for the summit. I hope North Korea will make some concessions to the U.S. soon.

1. Following 'just' in this structure you must have the infinitive.
