"President Trump said Saturday that North Korea has recently sought talks with the United States and that he 'won't rule out direct talks with Kim Jong Un,' the North Korean leader."
Trump said, referring to North Korea. "They, by the way, called up a couple of days ago; they said, 'We would like to talk.' And I said, 'So would we, but you have to de-nuke.'"
And while that seemed like an important breakthrough, it now appears the conversation Trump described never occurred.
The White House said Monday that Donald Trump had been referring to a call with South Korea's leader when he appeared to suggest a landmark direct contact with the nuclear North.
A senior administration official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told AFP that Trump had in fact been referencing a call he had on Thursday with South Korean President Moon Jae-in.
At the risk of sounding picky, there's a big difference between the two countries. One is an ally, one isn't. A phone call from one is routine; a phone call from the other is important.
