Trump confident about 2nd meet with Kim

Washington: Exuding confidence ahead of his high-profile meeting with Kim Jong-un later this month, US President Donald Trump has said the second summit will be a “very successful one” as he has established a “very good” relationship with the North Korean leader.
President Trump and Chairman Kim are scheduled to meet in Hanoi, Vietnam on February 27 and 28. The two leaders had met on June 12 last year in Singapore for the first summit. Trump described his first-ever historic meeting with Kim as “really fantastic” and said they had agreed to sign an unspecified document after their “very positive” summit, aimed at normalising ties and complete denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula.
“I hope we have the same good luck as we had in the first summit. A lot was done in the first summit. No more rockets going up. No more missiles going up. No more testing of nuclear (weapons). Got back our remains, the remains of our great heroes from the Korean War. We got back our hostages,” Trump told reporters at the White House on Friday. “We hope we are going to be very much equally as successful. I’m in no rush for speed. We just don’t want testing,” he said. Noting that the sanctions against North Koreans remain in place, Trump said both China and Russia were helping the US and he was also working closely with South Korea and Japan.
“But China, Russia, on the border, have really been at least partially living up to what they’re supposed to be doing,” he said. “So we will have a meeting on the 27th and 28th of February, and I think that will be a very successful one.
I look forward to seeing Chairman Kim. We have also established a very good relationship, which has never happened between him or his family and the United States. They have really taken advantage of the United States,” said the US President. (PTI)
