Donald Trump says ‘glad’ Kim Jong Un ‘is back, and well’
Sunday, 3rd May 2020

US President Donald Trump speaks Saturday that he was “glad” about the reappearance of Kim Jong Un and that the North Korea Leader is seemingly healthy.
Trump tweeted “I am glad to see he is back and well!” following Kim’s first public appearance in almost three weeks after strong thought that he was seriously ill or possibly dead.
North Korean local television revealed Kim walking, smiling broadly and smoking a cigarette at what the North said was the opening of a fertilizer factory on Friday in Sunchon, North of Pyongyang.
News about Kim’s health has been waving since his notable no-show at April 15 celebrations for the birthday of his grandfather, the North’s founder the most important day in the country’s political calendar.
His absence triggered a series of fevered talks and unconfirmed reports over his health condition.
Kim’s disappearance from public view came as Pyongyang’s talks with Washington over the North’s nuclear arsenal are at a stop, despite three meetings between Kim and Trump.
If Kim had been incapacitated or dead, it would have raised uncertainty over the process.
Trump had downplayed reports of Kim’s poor health and possible demise.
