트럼프 "김정은에 매우 우호적인 친서 보냈다"
Kim Jong-un hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping a few days ago,... and now he's got another letter from President Trump, which Trump says was "very friendly."
Kim Hyo-sun tells us more.
U.S. President Donald Trump said his (quote) "very friendly" letter to Kim Jong-un was in response to the birthday wishes he received last week from the North Korean leader.
However, at the White House on Monday, Trump refused to be drawn on what he told Kim in his letter.
"He actually sent me birthday wishes but it was just a very friendly letter both ways. We have a very, very good relationship this way."
The White House added correspondence between the two leaders has been ongoing.
President Trump also reiterated he has very good relationship with the North's leader.
While talking about Iran,... Trump explained that like Iran North Korea would enjoy a remarkable future once it abandons its nuclear weapons.
According to North Korea's state-run media on Sunday,... Kim Jong-un expressed satisfaction over the letter he received from Trump.
The exchange of letters comes as President Trump is scheduled to leave Wednesday for a trip to Northeast Asia, that will also take him to South Korea.
It's left to be seen whether the exchange of letters could pave the way for a revival of stalled denuclearization talks and possibly a third North Korea-U.S. summit.
