YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The White House says President Trump has accepted an invitation to meet directly with North Korea’s leader, Kim Jongun. South Korea’s National Security Adviser Chung Euiyong spoke with reporters Thursday night outside the White House after briefing officials on the recent talks between Seoul and Pyongyang, and said the meeting would take place within two months. No sitting U.S. president has ever met with a North Korean leader; Kim Jongun has never met another sitting head of state. For more, we speak with Tim Shorrock, correspondent for The Nation and the Korea Center for Investigative Journalism in Seoul.
