Trump: Kim's desire for peace deciding factor in US-North Korea relations

He said the US wanted peace and he hoped North Korean ruler Kim Jong Un wanted the same.

Donald Trump has said how much North Korea's leader desires peace will be a deciding factor in easing tensions between his nation and the United States.

In an interview in Wisconsin, the US president complained that his predecessors should have dealt with North Korea's pursuit of a nuclear arsenal, but said he was in the position now where he was "going to have to do something about it".
