Trump-Kim Summit: Leaders Have Dinner in Vietnam


President Trump shook hands with Kim Jong-un on Wednesday night in Hanoi, Vietnam, beginning their second summit meeting in eight months. The two leaders then sat down to a formal dinner with top aides. 




Amid meetings with Vietnamese officials on Wednesday, American politics were clearly on the president’s mind. He attacked his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, and a Democratic senator on Twitter just hours before he met Mr. Kim.

 Formal talks between Mr. Trump and Mr. Kim are to take place on Thursday. The United States wants North Korea to dismantle its nuclear weapons program. The North Koreans are seeking numerous concessions, including an end to punishing sanctions.
