US intelligence experts are trying to create a portrait of Kim Jong-un for US President Donald Trump, ahead of their meeting, Reuters, citing sources, said.

According to the news agency, US intelligence officials faced great difficulties, as they knew almost nothing about the leader of the DPRK.

According to an official who wished to remain anonymous, analysts gathered all the information they had about Kim Jong-un. In particular, they relied on the impressions of CIA Director Mike Pompeo, who met with him.

Pompeo described Kim Jong-un as a “smart guy who was prepared” for the meetings. The dossier will also draw on the stories of people who have met Kim Jong-un, including NBA star Dennis Rodman, a former classmate of the North Korean leader at a Swiss school, and the South Korean ambassador, Reuters reported.

The classified documents will describe Kim Jong-un's behavior, motivations, personality and leadership style. Gathering information about the North Korean leader is complicated by the lack of on-site spies and the difficulty of conducting cyber espionage, as the Internet is virtually non-existent in North Korea.

Currently, US intelligence considers Kim Jong-un a "rational activist", not an "eccentric". Reuters sources call the DPRK leader's goal to protect the regime and dynasty. He is ruthless enough to kill his relatives, he feels confident and expects a lot from the meeting with Trump.
