Donald Trump announced his summit with Kim Jong-Un is back on in Singapore on June 12th. This came directly following a meeting in the Oval Office with the North Korean dictator’s top aide Kim Yong Chul.
NEW: U.S.-North Korea summit is back on, Pres. Trump says; "June 12, we will be in Singapore. I've never said it happens in one meeting — you're talking about years of hostility, years of problems, years of hatred between so many different nations." https://t.co/he9uLA17dy pic.twitter.com/hSYtXLcBxQ
