Donald Trump said he would reach a denuclearisation deal with Kim Jong Un, after the North Korean dictator raised tension on the Korean peninsula by firing several “projectiles”.
South Korea originally said North Korea had launched missiles on Saturday before altering its description to say that Pyongyang had fired several unidentified projectiles.
“Anything in this very interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realises the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere or end it,” the US president tweeted on Saturday. “He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!”
