BREAKING: Trump Says He Expects to Meet Kim Jong Un Later This Year
President Trump has confirmed he anticipates a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un before the end of the year.
Key quotes from the exchange:
> Asked if he is exchanging written letters with Kim: “Can’t tell you that. But I get along with him. The fact I get along with him is a good thing.”
> “I know Kim Jong Un very well. He’s gonna be fine, as long as we have a smart president.”
> Asked if he expects to meet him this year: “Yeah… I will be.”
The comments align with recent reports that Trump has been pushing aides to arrange a potential summit, possibly during a fall Asia trip. The two leaders previously met multiple times during Trump’s first term.
A renewed push for direct diplomacy with Pyongyang.
