WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump said on Tuesday (Jul 17) there is no hurry to denuclearise North Korea under his accord with Kim Jong Un – a shift in tone from when the US leader said the process would start very soon.
“Discussions are ongoing and they’re going very, very well,” Trump told reporters. “We have no time limit. We have no speed limit.”
Trump said he discussed North Korea with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday at their summit in Helsinki.
“President Putin is going to be involved in the sense that he is with us,” Trump said.
The Republican president met with Kim on Jun 12 for an unprecedented summit in Singapore during which the North Korean leader repeated a pledge to denuclearize his country.
