US President Donald Trump says he will meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un later this year. The statement is presented as an effort to restart high-level engagement with North Korea, which remains a nuclear-armed state.

Both outlets report that Trump frames the planned meeting as part of a broader attempt to revive the relationship he says he built with Kim during his first term. France 24 adds that the comment comes as Trump seeks to continue a diplomatic approach aimed at dialogue with Pyongyang. Vanguard echoes the same core claim, emphasizing Trump’s goal of renewing a personal bond with Kim. Neither source provides additional details on dates, locations, or specific negotiations tied to the meeting.

Overall, the reporting aligns on Trump’s intent to meet Kim later this year and his stated rationale, while offering limited new information beyond the announcement itself.
