“Many people in the world will think this is a fantasy… from a science fiction movie,” the interpreter relayed Kim’s words to Trump.
Kim Jong-un met with President Donald Trump and senior US advisers. At the start of the extended talks, the North Korean leader confirmed that it would not be a smooth road ahead.
“Of course there are many challenges ahead, but I am ready to do this,” Kim Jong-un told the US top leadership.
The two leaders are expected to hold talks until about 11:30 local time (10:30 Vietnam time). They will then have lunch and continue discussing work.
