US and North Korea: Trump on North Korea's nuclear weapons: Kim is my friend
The US President repeatedly insists that Iran must not have nuclear weapons. However, he sees no problem with another country - and names his reasons for it.
US President Donald Trump has expressed differing views on nuclear weapons for Iran and North Korea. He stated that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, whom he referred to as a friend, already has extensive nuclear capabilities and that he will get along well with him as long as Trump is in office. In contrast, Trump has repeatedly emphasized that Iran should not possess nuclear weapons.
Despite Kim expressing positive sentiments towards Trump through his sister Kim Yo Jong, there has been no indication from Pyongyang of a willingness to engage in a new summit with Trump or to denuclearize.
