US
President Donald Trump has said that North Korea has promised not to
conduct any missile tests up to and during the planned meetings
between the two adversaries.
Trump
took to his favorite medium - Twitter - to make the announcement on
Saturday. “North Korea has not conducted a Missile Test since
November 28, 2017 and has promised not to do so through our
meetings,” Trump wrote, adding that he believes “they will honor
that commitment!”

In
the meantime, Trump criticized media coverage of the planned meeting,
which he says quickly regressed from the initial “startled and
amazed” reports to saying “so what, who cares” the next day.
The
news came as a surprise to many, including the Western media that,
for months, kept up the heat on North Korea. The fears of a possible
nuclear attack on US soil was fertile ground for this, considering
repeated threats by the White House to use force if diplomacy fails.
Reacting to headlines surrounding the breakthrough in diplomatic
relations, Trump took to Twitter on Saturday to criticize “fake”
coverage.
“In
the first hours after hearing that North Korea’s leader wanted to
meet with me to talk denuclearization and that missile launches will
end, the press was startled & amazed. They couldn’t believe
it,” Trump tweeted. “But by the following morning the news became
FAKE. They said so what, who cares!”

Earlier
in the day, the president said that he was capable of reaching what
would be a historic deal with Pyongyang, also telling his followers
that it is “very much in the making” and, if reached, would be “a
very good one for the World.”
The
remarks come as Trump accepted a surprise invitation to meet with
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. Though a date for the meeting has
yet to be announced it is believed that the two will meet sometime in
May. An exact time and place has yet to be determined.
