Trump And Kim Jong Un To Meet Over Denuclearization

United States’ President, Donald Trump has agrred to meet with his North Korea counterpart, Kim Jong Un to have a personal discussion with him over denuclearization that recently threatened to wipe out their countries.

The meeting, which would be the first between a sitting US president and a North Korean leader, will take place by May, according to South Korea’s national security adviser, Chung Eui-yong, who delivered the invitation to Trump after a visit by his delegation to Pyongyang earlier this week.

“He will accept the invitation to meet with Kim Jong Un at a place and time to be determined,” said White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders.

Trump’s decision to hold talks with Kim over the North’s nuclear program, after a year in which the two have repeatedly traded insults, is a remarkable breakthrough. It brings the North Korean regime close to its long-desired aim of recognition on the international stage, and offers Trump the tantalizing prospect of a historic diplomatic victory. But the consequences of such a high-stakes gamble remain hard to predict.
