Trump, Kim agree to work towards denuclearisation
President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un have signed a joint document in which they commit to working "toward complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."
The document signed by the leaders at their historic summit Tuesday also says they will join efforts "to build a lasting and stable peace regime" on the Korean Peninsula. The White House has yet to release the document's text. But it was photographed by the news media during a signing ceremony.
The document lays out four broad commitments. It says the sides "commit to establish new US-DPRK relations in accordance with the desire of the peoples of the two countries for peace and prosperity."
And it says they will commit to recovering the remains of prisoners of war and those missing in action.
Kim has great personality, is a smart negotiator: US President Donald Trump
President Donald Trump is praising North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as a "very worthy, very smart negotiator" on behalf of his people as the two leaders bid each other farewell after their historic summit.
Trump was asked by reporters in Singapore during his final appearance with Kim on Tuesday what surprised him most during their meetings. Trump said Kim has a "great personality" and is "very smart. Good combination." He also said he learned Kim is "a very talented man" and "loves his country very much."
He wrapped up the summit by saying the two had "a terrific day" and "learned a lot about each other and about our countries."
Trump added that he expected they'll meet again many times.
