Donald Trump, Kim Jong Un: The Two Leaders Planning A Second Meeting

US President Donald Trump mentioned about a personal letter coming from North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Friday. Well, it seems the letter has finally reached Trump.

The White House on Monday said that the President has received a very positive letter from Kim seeking a follow-up meeting after their historic summit in Singapore, planning of which is already in the process.

“It was a very warm, very positive letter,” White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said. She added that the message showed Pyongyang’s “continued commitment to focus on denuclearization” on the Korean Peninsula.

“The primary purpose of the letter was to schedule another meeting with the president, which we are open to and are already in the process of coordinating,” Sanders said during the White House press briefing.

The White House spokeswoman further added that the recently held military parade in Pyongyang was a sign of good faith as it did not have any long-range missiles on display.

Notably, Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un met in Singapore earlier this year to discuss North Korea’s nuclear programme. While the North Korean leader promised to work toward the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula during the summit, concrete details on how and when the same will be done weren’t discussed.

The follow-on negotiation talks were not much positive and even led to the cancellation of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo planned trip to the North late last month. But, now it seems everything is moving on smoothly as the two leaders are showcasing their love and friendship for each other publically.

When Sanders was asked if the next Trump-Kim meeting would likely take place in Washington, she said more details on the same will be provided to the media once everything gets finalized.

The timing of a second Trump-Kim meeting currently remains unclear. However, it is possible that the two leaders will meet by year’s end.
