US President Donald Trump agreed to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un because Kim is the ultimate decision-maker in his country, a senior administration official said on Thursday. Kim Jong Un talked about denuclearization with the South Korean Representatives, not just a freeze. White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said Trump "will accept the invitation to meet with Kim Jong Un at a place and time to be determined." "President Trump appreciated the briefing and said he would meet Kim Jong Un by May to achieve denuclearization." Abe also told reporters he hoped to visit the United States as early as next month to meet Trump to discuss North Korea, among other issues.
