During his first term as president, Donald Trump held three meetings with Kim Jong-un.
The team of newly elected US President Donald Trump is discussing holding direct negotiations with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. Reuters writes about it with reference to sources.
Some members of Trump’s team hope the new diplomatic push could reduce the risks of armed conflict on the Korean Peninsula. However, no final decision has been made yet.
According to the publication’s interlocutors, Trump’s first goal is to continue the main engagement, but additional political goals have not yet been established.
In addition, the issue may take a backseat to pressing foreign policy issues in the Middle East and Ukraine, one of the sources noted.
It can be remembered that during his previous presidency, Trump held three meetings with Kim Jong-un. Their diplomacy had no concrete results. The United States called on North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons, and North Korea demanded full relief from sanctions and then issued new threats.
North Korean state media has not publicly mentioned Trump’s re-election. Recently, Kim Jong-un accused the United States of increasing tensions and provocations.
