Trump becomes first sitting US President to step into North Korea

Donald Trump has become the first serving US President to cross the border into North Korea. Mr Trump shook hands with Kim Jong Un at the borderline on the Korean peninsula's demilitarised zone, a swift turnaround in Twitter diplomacy after floating the idea on social media. The American leader was invited to cross the line by Mr Kim, and stepped over, spending a brief time in North Korea before bringing Mr Kim back with him into South Korea. During the meeting, the pair agreed to revive talks on the North's nuclear weapons programme. As he announced the resumptions of talks, Mr Trump told reporters ‘we're not looking for speed. We're looking to get it right’. He added that economic sanctions on the North would remain. Mr Kim describes the move as ‘an expression of his willingness to eliminate all the unfortunate past and open a new future’. Image: AP
