'Deal will happen!” the president tweeted Saturday.
After North Korea fired its latest round of projectiles this weekend, President Donald Trump posted on Twitter that he believes North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un wouldn’t do anything to interfere with his country’s “great economic potential.”
“Anything in this very interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realizes the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere or end it,” Trump tweeted on Saturday. “He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!”
Ankit Panda, an adjunct senior fellow at the Federation of American Scientists, told Bloomberg that the use of the word"projectile" could be a strategic reference to an unguided rocket. CNN international correspondent Will Ripley posted on Twitter that if the projectile proved to be a missile, it would be Kim’s first launch since November 2017. If so, Ripley noted that such an action would effectively end the missile testing suspension and be a “sign of the epic breakdown of negotiations between the US and North Korea that began with the failed Hanoi summit.”
