President Donald Trump said in a Jan. 1 tweet that he looks forward to meeting again with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, after Kim said he’s “always ready to sit together with the U.S. president.”

Trump referenced a PBS News Hour report that said Kim had promised not to “make, test or give away nuclear weapons,” and that he is looking forward to meeting with his U.S. counterpart.
