President Donald Trump said Saturday that a deal with North Korea ‘will happen,’ hours after the South Korean military said Pyongyang had launched “several unidentified short-range projectiles.”
Trump said he believes Kim Jong Un will do nothing to interfere with the “great economic potential” of North Korea.
“He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me,” Trump said. “Deal will happen!”
The South Korean military originally said that the North had launched a single missile, but a military official later told NBC News that the North did not launch a ballistic missile. The South Korean president’s office said Seoul and Washington are sharing information and analyzing what exactly the projectiles were.
A senior U.S. administration official told NBC News that National Security Advisor John Bolton had “fully briefed” Trump on the situation.
In April, North Korea claimed to have “tested a powerful warhead” in the first public weapons test for the regime since Trump and Kim met for a historic summit in Singapore last year.
Trump and Kim held a second round of talks in Vietnam February of this year, but negotiations collapsed after Trump reportedly handed Kim a note demanding he turn over the North’s nuclear weapons and bomb fuel.
