President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un met in Singapore in June for a historic summit and signed an agreement committing to the “building of a lasting and robust peace regime” on the Korean peninsula.
“We’re prepared to start a new history, and we’re ready to start a new chapter between our nations,” Trump said at a news conference.
“Peace is always worth the effort,” he said. “Anyone can make war, but only the most courageous can make peace.”
TRUMP, KIM JONG UN’S SUMMIT IN VIETNAM: WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE LEADERS’ SECOND MEETING
As the leaders prepare to meet for a second time in Vietnam this week, take a look back at five agreements Trump and Kim made during their first trip.
Denuclearization
Trump and Kim signed a document promising to work for “complete denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.”
Trump later told Fox News he thought Kim would begin to dismantle his nuclear program “virtually immediately.”
“I just think that we are now going to start the process of denuclearization of North Korea, and I believe that he’s going back and will start it virtually immediately,” Trump said. “And he’s already indicated that and you look at what he’s done.”
AT LOOK AT HOW NORTH KOREA’S NUCLEAR WEAPONS PROGRAM HAS CHANGED WITH EACH KIM REGIME
“His country has to be de-nuked, and he understood that he fully understood that, he didn’t fight it,” Trump said.
At a news conference, the president said he understood it would take “a long time to pull off complete denuclearization,” but he promised to push North Korea to remove its weapons quickly as it “mechanically and physically” can be done.
Trump also said Kim will be destroying a “major” missile testing site “very soon,” an agreement they came to after signing the document.
Human rights violations
The summit came nearly a year after Otto Warmbier, a 22-year-old college student, died after being brought back to the U.S. The University of Virginia student had been arrested in January 2016 for allegedly stealing a propaganda poster and sentenced to 15 months in prison. While incarcerated, he fell into a coma.
“Otto did not die in vain,” Trump said in Singapore.
Trump told reporters after the meeting that he did discuss human rights with Kim, albeit briefly. Prior to the summit, it was reported that the U.S. delegation, including the president, would steer clear of the Hermit Kingdom’s lengthy list of human rights violations.
Prior to the summit, Vice President Mike Pence said he had spoken to Warmbier’s father and promised him his son “will not have died in vain.”
Recovering American soldiers
Trump said the remains of U.S. soldiers who died in the Korean War will be brought home. Nearly 7,800 U.S. soldiers were listed missing or unaccounted for from the Korean War. Around 5,300 of those people were lost in North Korea.
Both Kim and Trump signed an agreement for the recovery of the remains of American soldiers as well as the immediate repatriation of those who have already been identified.
