Trump, Kim Jong Un Meet, Talk Peace and New Future; Group Slams Lack of Mention of Christian Abuse
Major persecution watchdog groups, such as Open Doors USA, have said that Trump should have taken Kim to task for the horrific abuse of Christians and other minorities in North Korea, however.
The historic summit was the first ever meeting between a sitting U.S. president and his North Korean counterpart, with news media around the world capturing photos and videos of Trump and Kim shaking hands and walking together, seemingly in an upbeat mood.
A joint statement released by the two leaders explained that in private they had a “comprehensive, in-depth and sincere exchange of opinions” on the issues between the two countries, aimed at facilitating peace.
“President Trump committed to provide security guarantees to the DPRK, and Chairman Kim Jong Un reaffirmed his firm and unwavering commitment to complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula,” the statement reads.
A four-point promise found in the statement notes that the peoples of both countries want “peace and prosperity.”
The document says that both the U.S. and North Korea will work toward stable peace on the Korean Peninsula, and reaffirms Kim’s commitment toward complete denuclearization. Finally, it commits both countries to recovering and repatriating the remains of prisoners of war.
