Trump agrees to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un

President Trump has agreed to sit-down with his North Korean nemesis Kim Jong-Un sometime in the next two months to discuss stripping the hermit nation of its nuclear arsenal, it was announced Thursday.

"He expressed his eagerness to meet President Trump as soon as possible," South Korean National Security Director Chung Eui-yong said of Kim.

"President Trump appreciated the briefing and said he would meet Kim Jong-Un by May to achieve permanent denuclearization."

"Kim Jong Un talked about denuclearization with the South Korean Representatives, not just a freeze," he wrote.

The relationship between the two world leaders has been downright nasty at times - with Trump repeatedly calling Kim "Little Rocket Man" and Kim dubbing the president a "Mentally deranged US dotard."

After Kim made threats against the US in a New Year's address and mentioned the "Nuclear button" on his office desk, Trump responded by tweeting that he has a nuclear button, too, "But it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!".

Kim Jong-Un's younger sister, Kim Yo Jong, had a memorable meeting and friendly handshake with South Korean President Moon during the February Olympic games in PyeongChang.
