Trump and Kim Jong Un: The Unseen Moments Defining Their Unusual Bond

Share Post

As Donald Trump renewed claims that he and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un have a good relationship, photographs offer a look back at one of the most unusual diplomatic relationships in modern history.

Over the weekend, Trump shared multiple social media posts referencing Kim. In one, he posted a photograph from their 2019 meeting at the Korean Demilitarized Zone and wrote: "Despite the unfriendly look on this particular picture, there are many where we're smiling, Kim Jong Un and I get along GREAT!"

In another, Trump said his "very good relationship" with the North Korean leader was one reason he opposed large-scale joint military exercises involving the United States and South Korea.
