S. Korea's Moon: Trump wants to grant Kim Jong Un's wishes
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea's president says U.S. President Donald Trump told him he has a "very friendly view" of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and wants to grant his wishes if he denuclearizes.
The presidential Blue House quotes Moon as saying that Trump asked him to covey these messages to the North Korean leader if he visits Seoul within this year as he promised.
Moon spoke to reporters on Saturday aboard a presidential plane en route to New Zealand.
Moon said he and Trump agreed during a recent meeting that Kim's trip to Seoul would play a "very positive role" in U.S.-North Korea nuclear diplomacy.
Moon says it's still not clear if Kim will visit Seoul by the end of this year.
