North Korea demands US ends hostility one year on from Singapore 0 SHARES Share it! The first-ever meeting between a North Korean leader and a sitting US president took place on June 12 last year in Singapore, where Kim Jong Un and Trump signed a vaguely-worded deal to achieve “complete denuclearisation”. It added the “arrogant and unilateral policy” of the US would never work with North Korea. Last month the North raised tensions in the region by firing short-range missiles for the first time since November 2017. South Korean President Moon Jae-in, who was instrumental in brokering the Singapore summit a year ago, said on Monday talks were underway for a third North-US meeting, according to South Korea’s Yonhap news agency.
