“Secretary Pompeo had a good meeting with Chairman Kim in Pyongyang,” Trump had said, adding that there was a progress made on Singapore Summit agreements. “I look forward to seeing Chairman Kim again, in the near future,” Trump said.
Trump also had claimed that Kim Jong Un has agreed to allow inspections of nuclear sites in his country. Trump believes that now there will be no rocket or nuclear testing by North Korea.
