Trump says he has a good relationship with Kim Jong Un and expects to meet 'someday' ahead of White House summit with South Korea's president Lee Jae Myung.

By Steve Holland, David Brunnstrom and Hyunjoo Jin WASHINGTON/SEOUL (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he wanted to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and that he was open to further trade talks with South Korea even as he lobbed new criticisms at the visiting Asian ally.

Trump told South Korean president Lee Jae Myung he would like to meet with North Korean dictator Kim Jung Un after the South Korean leader noted that North Korea had “developed further its nuclear and missile capabilities” during the four years Trump was out of office after having lost the 2020 election.
