“The Fake News Media loves saying ‘so little happened at my first summit with Kim Jong Un.’ Wrong!” he tweeted.
President Donald Trump on Thursday defended himself against complaints that his negotiations with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un have yielded few steps toward denuclearization, saying ahead of a potential second summit that he sees “much potential” for progress.
“The Fake News Media loves saying ‘so little happened at my first summit with Kim Jong Un.’ Wrong!” he wrote in a pair of tweets, listing off accomplishments like sustained diplomatic relations with the isolated nation.
He credited his first summit with pulling the U. S. back from the brink of a “major war” with North Korea — a prospect at times egged on by Trump — as well as negotiating the return of U. S. prisoners who had been held by North Korea and the remains of Korean War veterans.
