Donald Trump To Have A Second Summit With Kim Jong Un Very Soon

The U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday met with his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in at the United Nations on Monday afternoon. The two leaders signed a renegotiated free-trade agreement which will help solidify business relations between the US and South Korea.

Trump called it a “very big deal” adding that the newly signed agreement will help in significant reduction in trade deficit between the two countries as well as create new opportunities to export US products to South Korea including automobiles, medicine, and agricultural products.

The U.S. President reiterated that a second summit meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is currently in planning and will be finalized soon.

“It looks like we’ll have a second summit quite soon,” Trump told the reporters during his meeting with Moon Jae-in.

He also mentioned the letter sent by Kim Jong Un that called out for a second meeting.

“As you know, Kim Jong Un wrote a letter — a beautiful letter — and asked me for a second meeting and we will be doing that,” Trump said adding “(Secretary of State Mike) Pompeo will work that out in the immediate future.”

Trump praised Kim’s enthusiasm for reaching a denuclearization deal with the US.

“I see tremendous enthusiasm on behalf of Chairman Kim for making a deal,” Trump said. “We are in no rush. There’s no hurry…. We’ve made more progress than anybody’s made ever, frankly, with regard to North Korea.”

The South Korean President said Kim has a lot of trust and expectations on President Trump who has shown personal involvement in the diplomatic efforts.

“Chairman Kim wants to repeatedly convey his unwavering trust in expectations for you while expressing his hope the meet you soon … you are indeed the only person who can solve this problem,” he said.

Trump currently has a series of bilateral meetings scheduled with allies such as Britain’s Theresa May, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Japan’s Shinzo Abe.
