Kim Jong Un

Remember when impeachment was all anyone in D.C. could talk about?

Joe Scarborough's remarks came after Kim Jong Un asserted this week that North Korea "will never" denuclearize.

"He likes me, I like him, we get along," Trump said of Kim Jong Un, after the North Korean leader announced his intentions to expand his weapons arsenal.

President Donald Trump said he thinks North Korea's Kim Jong Un is a "man of his word" after the despot warned the world that Pyongyang will soon have a "new strategic weapon."

"Where's the Republican leadership in Congress to say 'no'?" Senator Ben Cardin asked in an interview with Fox News Sunday.

Skepticism of Trump among Germans may also be the result of a broader mismatch between American attitudes toward Germans and vice versa.

With Christmas morning looming, Trump seemed unconcerned about North Korea's "gift" warning and said the U.S. would handle whatever comes along "very successfully."

North Korea has set an end-of-year deadline for U.S. officials to break the deadlock in denuclearization talks, or receive a "Christmas gift."

Special envoy Stephen Biegun said that any new weapons tests or provocations by the North would be "most unhelpful" with negotiations stalled.

Officials warned that such a move could crash the South Korean stock market, but the president reportedly ordered staff, "Go do it!"

With an end-of-year deadline looming, tensions are high between the U.S. and North Korea.

The president touted his relationship with the North Korean leader despite tensions escalating as Kim Jong Un imposed a deadline for denuclearization talks.

"Symbolism is very big for Kim. Look, it's business as usual in North Korea," Jack Jacobs told MSNBC.

Little of note has been achieved in the 18 months since President Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un signed a vague agreement on denuclearization in Singapore.

Mark Esper's announcement comes after Japan's Defense Chief Taro Kono warned the U.S. official that such an "act of goodwill" will not likely persuade North Korea to change his mind.

North Korea has lodged multiple protests over planned joint U.S.-South Korean war games, and said Wednesday it would respond to force in kind.

Pyongyang warned that the planned aerial drill will "throw a wet blanket" on struggling negotiations.

North Korea fired two missiles into the sea off its eastern coast on Thursday as denuclearization negotiations with the U.S. remain stalled.

Twenty-seven percent of U.S. adults view Trump as the largest threat to world peace, compared with Kim (22 percent) and Putin (15 percent).

It comes after Pyongyang released propaganda images showing Kim galloping on horseback through snowy mountains on his way up to Mount Paektu.

Analysts believe the symbolic journey to Mount Paektu signals the possibility of new missile tests, or even a North Korean expedition into space.

Trump may see a deal with Kim as his best chance for a major victory. But fallout from our domestic politics is so toxic it might scuttle the agreement—no matter its terms. This would be a massive mistake.

The Korean Central News Agency said that Wednesday's test was of "great significance" and involved a Pukguksong-3 missile.

The test came just one day after the North announced it would resume denuclearization talks with the U.S. this weekend.

Ex-White House national security adviser John Bolton rebuked President Donald Trump's repeated North Korea disarmament claims, declaring Monday that Kim Jong-Un "will never give up its nuclear weapons voluntarily."

President Donald Trump claims that he would win a Nobel Peace Prize but that they are not given out "fairly."

Kim Myong Gil said Friday he welcomed Trump's suggestion that a "new method" could achieve success in talks between Washington and Pyongyang.

Dan Smith of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute suggested nuclear weapon development was continuing despite rapprochement with the U.S.

Pyongyang has conducted seven rounds of short-range missile tests since July with denuclearization talks with the U.S. in limbo.
