HISTORY: President Trump Says North Korea’s Denuclearization Underway

President Trump told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that North Korea will start the process of denuclearizing “virtually immediately.

According to Fox News:

President Trump, on the heels of his historic summit with Kim Jong Un, told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that he believes the North Korean leader will begin to work toward dismantling his country’s nuclear program “virtually immediately. The president left Singapore after the two leaders signed a document stating Pyongyang would work toward “complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.”

In an interview with Fox News, Trump said the process is “really moving rapidly.” “I just think that we are now we are going to start the process of denuclearization of North Korea, and I believe that he’s going back and will start it virtually immediately – and he’s already indicated that and you look at what he’s done,” Trump said.The historic agreement came after the two leaders held several meetings throughout the day. Trump was asked by a reporter if Kim agreed to denuclearize and he said, “We are starting that process very quickly.”

. . .

Whether the unpredictable North Korean leader will follow through remains unclear, but Trump sounded optimistic as he left the summit. He told “Hannity” the two of them “got along from the beginning” and Kim understood the need to dismantle his nuclear program.

“His country has to be de-nuked and he understood that, he fully understood that, he didn’t fight it,” Trump said.

The summit, which almost didn’t happen, represented a remarkable turnaround from the tension between Washington and Pyongyang last summer when Trump and Kim exchanged a war of words, with the American president warning the dictator of “fire and fury.”

Trump told Fox News, though, that “without the rhetoric we wouldn’t have been here. So I think the rhetoric, I hated to do it, sometimes I felt foolish doing it, but we had no choice,” he said. “As for what happens next, Trump insisted, “I think he’s gone back to get this done. He wants to get it done.”

President Trump took a massive gamble by going to Singapore and sitting down with the North Korean leader, and initial reports are that the gamble is paying off. The ratcheting down of tensions between the two nations shows that the “maximum pressure” policy was effective, and even through constant media criticism, the president’s foreign policy is yielding results.

Hey, where are all the naysayers? Come on democrats, give kudos where they’re deserved. Even up until the meeting the liberals were saying Trump wouldn’t get anything accomplished. Eat those words lefties.

President Trump has created whiplash for so many of us, he completes something momentous and then he immediatly tackles another huge complex problem and while solving that one he is greeting and meeting world leaders before he has another huge rally, meanwhile he is signing legislation and appointments, yes he is certainly a great leader and we are fortunate that he is ours.
MAGA

I am so thankful to have this man for our President, I was starting to think that I had seen the best days in our country for the last time. Now I am very thankful to our Lord for saving our country once again.
I guess it is time we start to pray for those that have lost the moral compass that made our country great. Even a domestic terrorist deserves forgiveness if they ever see the wrong in their ways.

I suppose the dems would rather see the missiles coming rather than give President Trump any credit. Well, what positive did your savior B. Obama do with N. Korea, or, your womanizer Bill Clinton!! It is a start for better relationships for us all. This, dems just do not understand, or, apparently want. Who is trying to make and keep America great!!!!
