Caption: Trump Says He Will Meet North Korea's Kim Jong Un This Year. U.S. President Donald Trump has said he plans to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un later this year. Trump did not provide further details about when or where the meeting with the North Korean leader could take place. Speaking to reporters at the White House, Trump claimed Kim has 57 nuclear weapons and said North Korea should never have been allowed to develop such an arsenal. Trump recently announced a scaling back of joint U.S.-South Korean military exercises, which have long angered North Korea. The president said he gets along "very well" with Kim and suggested their relationship could help manage tensions with Pyongyang. Trump met Kim several times during his first presidential term and became the first sitting U.S. president to step into North Korea in 2019. Kim’s sister Kim Yo Jong said her brother still has "good memories and feelings" towards Trump despite tensions between the two countries. However, she said North Korea's position towards Washington had not changed, arguing that U.S. "hostile policy remains unchanged.” Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
