Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he plans to push North Korea’s Kim Jong Un to ditch his nukes when the two meet Sunday, adding he hopes to make clear to the dictator “that we understand what each side is truly trying to achieve.”
Pompeo said he wanted “a fully coordinated, unified view of how to proceed, which will be what is needed if we are going to be successful in denuclearizing North Korea.”
His comments came before a meeting Saturday with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in Tokyo.
Pompeo is making a day trip to the rogue regime and is not spending the night.
He expects to urge Kim to take a second meeting with President Trump and will seek “options for both location and timing,” according to CNN.
