South Korea PM, Trump discuss possible talks with North Korea's Kim, Yonhap says

Trump and South Korean Prime Minister Kim Min-seok discussed resuming U.S.-North Korea talks and a $350 billion investment enabled by recent South Korean legislation, officials said.

  • Kim Min-seok met with Donald Trump in Washington to discuss the possibility of restarting dialogue with Kim Jong Un. Kim suggested Trump’s past engagement with Pyongyang could help reopen negotiations on the Korean Peninsula.
  • Kim told reporters that Trump asked whether the North Korean leader might be willing to speak with the U.S. or with him personally. Kim said recent statements from Pyongyang suggest a potential openness to renewed talks.
  • The visit also followed discussions with U.S. Vice President JD Vance about implementing a $350 billion South Korean investment pledge in the U.S., an agreement tied to avoiding higher U.S. tariffs and reinforcing bilateral ties.
