By Agence France-PressePresident Donald Trump said Tuesday that he has received another “beautiful letter” from Kim Jong Un and expressed openness to holding a third summit with the North Korean leader. Indicating that he continues to trust Kim, despite making little progress in efforts to get Pyongyang to give up nuclear weapons, Trump said the North Korean strongman “has kept his word.”“That’s very important to me,” he said at the White House. Trump did not divulge what was in the letter from Kim. Despite widespread perceptions that the last summit, held in Hanoi in February, was a failure, Trump said he would be open to an eventual third meeting. “It could happen but I want to bring it further down the line,” Trump said.
