US President Donald Trump further fueled speculation about the health of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, telling reporters at the White House he had a "very good idea" of his condition but couldn't talk about it at this time.
"I can't tell you exactly. Yes I do have a very good idea but I can't talk about it now," Trump said Monday when asked about Kim's health.
"I just wish him well," the president added.I hope he's fine. I do know how he's doing, relatively speaking.[...] the president dismissed on Monday claims by North Korean state media that Kim had made a statement on Saturday, saying this couldn't possibly be true.
"I don't think so. No one has seen him. He didn't make a statement," Trump said. "He didn't say anything last Saturday. Nobody knows where he is, so obviously he couldn't have said it."
North Korean media said over the weekend that Kim had made a statement to workers in the coastal resort town of Wonsan. Moon Chung-in, a national security adviser to South Korea's president, also said on Sunday that Kim had been staying in Wonsan. Seoul firmly believes that Kim "is alive and well," the senior official said.
Trump made sure to remind reporters that the US would have been at war with North Korea had he not been elected in 2016. While he and Kim exchanged threats and insults early on, in 2018 Trump became the first US president to directly meet with a North Korean leader.
