Trump claims Kim Jong Un responded to talks overture
- Trump said Monday that North Korea's Kim Jong Un had responded to his overtures, without giving further details.
- This came a day after Trump ordered the US to scale back military exercises with South Korea, calling North Korea "unthreatening and respectful."
- North Korea has said nothing publicly, and neither the White House nor its mission to the UN has commented on the claim.
- The two men met twice, in 2018 and 2019, before talks collapsed over North Korea's nuclear weapons programme.
