North Korea: Nukes deal is turning point

- BY KAREN ROCKETT

NORTH Korea yesterday hailed the historic summit with South Korea as a turning point for the divided peninsula.

Dictator Kim Jong-un and South Korea’s leader Moon Jae-in have vowed to work towards “complete denucleari­sation”.

Yesterday, North Korea broadcast its first footage of Friday’s summit. But it rarely mentioned the denucleari­sation discussion, instead highlighti­ng themes of peace, prosperity and Korean unity.

US President Donald Trump has pledged to keep sanctions pressure on Kim and says “the US won’t be played like a fiddle.”

Yesterday he tweeted: “Just had a long and very good talk with President Moon of South Korea. Things are going very well.”
