U.S. President Donald Trump said on Aug. 19 that he would meet Kim Jong Un later this year, seeking to revive the bond he claims to have forged with the leader of nuclear-armed North Korea in his first term.
Trump told reporters at the White House it was important to “get along” with Kim, adding in an unusually precise assessment that Pyongyang now had 57 “very powerful” nuclear weapons.
