The White House said President Trump was open to talks with Kim as South Korea warns North Korea’s missiles could reach the US mainland.
Trump, 79, was asked by a reporter on Friday while aboard Air Force One whether he’s planning to travel on and meet with North Korean despot Kim Jong Un during this coming week’s diplomatic tour of Asia. Trump responded by saying he was “open to it,” but the journalist would likely have “to put out the word” for him.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un vowed that his country's alliance with Russia will "advance non-stop," and is now "rising to its historic peak," state-run media said Friday.
