‘the Hanoi summit last year’
Washington and Pyeongyang have been stalled since the Hanoi summit last year, and tensions have escalated again since North Korea resumed its missile activities in early July.
Is it okay to say that ‘last year’ modifies ‘the Hanoi summit’?
‘the Hanoi summit’ is the one and only event that happened before and then shouldn’t it be like ‘the Hanoi summit, which was held last year’?
