Trump Talked About His Good Relationship With Kim Jong-Un During His 2024 Announcement
Trump talked about his good relationship with Kim Jong-Un during his 2024 announcement. He's under investigation for holding onto Kim's letters among other documents.
- Trump talked about Kim Jong-Un during his 2024 announcement for president.
- The former president was talking about his relationships with foreign leaders when he was in office.
- Trump is under investigation for holding on to Kim Jong Un's letters, among other classified documents, after his presidency.
During the launch of his 2024 presidential campaign Tuesday night, former President Donald Trump decided to nod to his relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, whose letters the National Records Administration was asking for from Trump for months before he returned them in January 2022.
"China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea were in check and... they respected the United States and quite honestly, they respected me," Trump said during the onset of his speech.
He later continued: "[I] knew them well... North Korea had not launched a single long-range missile since my summit with Chairman Kim Jong Un nearly three years before we developed a relationship, and that's a good thing. Not a bad thing. It's a good thing. Very good thing, actually."
While Trump was president, Kim penned Trump letters that the former president described as "love letters."
After he left office, Trump held on to the letters — allegedly telling aides that the top secret letter, along with other classified documents were "mine" — until they were turned over to the National Archives in January.
It was later revealed that, despite being aware that he was not allowed to share them due to their classified nature, Trump allowed journalist Bob Woodward to look at them.
Following the August 8 raid on his Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida, the FBI continues to investigate whether Trump broke three federal laws, including the Espionage Act, by taking classified documents to his Florida home.
