[Trump Truth Social Capture]      <\/p>\n<p refid=\"2\">U.S. President Donald Trump posted a photo of the &#8220;Panmunjeom Lightning Meeting&#8221; with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on his social media on the 15th (local time).<\/p>\n<p refid=\"3\">On Truth Social, President Trump posted a picture taken side by side with Chairman Kim at the Joint Security Area (JSA) in Panmunjom, saying, &#8220;We don&#8217;t look good in this specific photo, but there are many pictures of us smiling,&#8221; adding, &#8220;Kim Jong-un and I get along very well!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p refid=\"4\">The Panmunjom meeting took place on June 30, 2019, during the first period of President Trump&#8217;s presidency. It was the third meeting following the Singapore meeting on June 12, 2018 and the Hanoi meeting in Vietnam on February 27-28, 2019.<\/p>\n<p refid=\"5\">At that time, President Trump met with Chairman Kim at the Military Demarcation Line and shook hands with him, then moved to the North for a while, becoming the first U.S. president to step on North Korean soil during his tenure. Earlier, on June 13, President Trump also posted a photo of his first meeting in Singapore with Chairman Kim on social media. It was around eight years after the Singapore talks.<\/p>\n<p refid=\"6\">President Trump&#8217;s successive posting of photos of his meetings with Chairman Kim is interpreted as an attempt to promote his achievements and emphasize that he is the only Western leader to have a good relationship with Chairman Kim. Furthermore, it may be seen as a sign that he intends to meet with Chairman Kim again.<\/p>\n<p>#<\/p>\n<p>Out of the blue<\/p>\n<p> Singapore<\/p>\n<p> Truth Social<\/p>\n<p> Social Media<\/p>\n<p> Chairman of the State Affairs Commission<\/p>\n<p> Joint Security Area<\/p>\n<p> date and time of revision<\/p>\n<p> Yonhap News<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Just two months after posting photos of &#8216;Singapore talks&#8217; \uc0ac\uc9c4 \ud655\ub300 Trump&#8217;s SNS post photos of the Panmunjom&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":121251,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[52593,61705,62882,141,31,34,62881,303,2002,29752,16973],"class_list":["post-121250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-north-korea","tag-chairman-of-the-state-affairs-commission","tag-date-and-time-of-revision","tag-joint-security-area","tag-kim-jong-un","tag-korea","tag-north-korea","tag-out-of-the-blue","tag-singapore","tag-social-media","tag-truth-social","tag-yonhap-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=121250"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121250\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/121251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=121250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=121250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=121250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
