Donald Trump becomes first US President to step into North Korea

  The on-again, off-again nuclear talks with Kim Jong-un appear to be back on-again after Donald Trump became the first sitting United States President to enter into North Korea. Here is more:

On Sunday, President Donald Trump, South Korean President Moon Jae-in, and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un met and held talks at the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).

At around 3:45 PM local time, North Korean leader Kim and President Trump met and shook hands at the military demarcation line (MDL), which is the line dividing the two Koreas.

President Trump then proceeded to cross over into North Korean territory, effectively becoming the first sitting U.S. President in history to have stepped foot in North Korea.

When President Trump crossed over into the North, North Korean leader Kim stated, “President Trump has just walked across the demarcation line. That has made him the first US President to visit our country. Actually just looking at this action, this is an expression of his willingness to eliminate all the unfortunate past and open a new future.”

President Trump has stated that he was “proud to step over the line” into North Korea. Kim Jong-un also added, “It’s a very courageous and determined act.”

  This was a symbolic gesture before the two leaders sat down for talks in South Korea, where both men agreed to try to restart the stalled talks.

President Trump then held a private bilateral meeting in the Freedom House with DPRK leader Kim, which began with a press conference. Kim Jong-un stated, “This means that we can feel at ease and meet each other with positive mindsets.”

After parting, President Trump stated, “We just had a very, very good meeting with Chairman Kim and we’ve agreed that we’re going to designate a team, and the team will try and work out some deals, and again speed is not the object, we want to see if we can do a really comprehensive good deal.”

Kim Jong-un also added that he and Trump “have created a precedent where we can meet at any time we want without being restrained to venue and format.”

  Once again we will have to wait and see if anything comes from this or if any real progress will be made this time but it has to be considered a step in the right direction. Unless of course you are a liberal because then you will see this as proof that Donald Trump likes to cozy up to dictators because he wants to be one.
