It's not like the US can't still destroy NK if that action was called for. It's purely about posture.
The US has made concessions and gained nothing.
There is no way to look at this other than a massive win for North Korea at the expense of the US world standing.
If Russia aren't paying Trump to do this then he is just an idiot.
What about the decreased risk of a nuclear war with North Korea? That's a little something, no?
