JONG UN ‘BEGGED ON HANDS & KNEES’

- Denis Slattery

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S personal lawyer said North Korean leader Kim Jong Un got “on his hands and knees and begged” for their summit to be held after Trump canceled the sitdown last month. Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani told the crowd at an investment conference in Israel that Kim came crawling back to the negotiatin­g table last month after Trump scrapped the meeting because senior North Korean officials insulted top Trump administra­tion officials, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday. “Well, Kim Jong Un got back on his hands and knees and begged for it, which is exactly the position you want to put him in,” said Giuliani, who’d lobbied unsuccessf­ully to be Trump’s top diplomat.
