North Korea's Kim wishes Trump and his wife a speedy recovery

SEOUL

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Saturday wishes US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania a speedy recovery from Corona infection “He sincerely hoped that they would recover as soon as possible.

He hoped they will surely overcome it," the Korean Central News Agency reported. “He sent warm greetings to them.” It was on Friday Trump made it clear that he and his wife had tested positive for the coronavirus, and leaders across the world have sent messages of goodwill to the couple.

Kim and Trump were once rivals and have exchanged harsh words after Korea carried out a series of high-profile weapons' tests including that of nuclear spearheads in 2017. All testes were reported to be aimed at the United States of America.

Trump had said he would rain “fire and fury” on North Korea and derided Kim as “little rocket man” on a suicide mission, while Kim responded he would “tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire.” After that, they stopped such rhetoric and instead developed a personal relationship after Kim abruptly reached out to Trump in 2018 for talks on the fate of his advancing nuclear arsenal. They met three times in 2018-2019
