North Korean leader Kim Jong Un invited President Donald Trump to visit Pyongyang, Joongang Ilbo reported, citing people familiar with the matter.

The offer to hold another summit was made in a letter delivered on the third week of August, the report said. It came shortly after a separate letter from Kim that Trump made public in the first week of August.

The White House offered no immediate comment on the report.

Trump said in early August that Kim had sent him a "very beautiful letter" that mostly complained "about the ridiculous and expensive" joint military drills between the U.S. and South Korea, adding that Kim had apologized for the short-range missile tests. It's not clear whether Trump has responded to either letter, according to the report.

KJU needs Trump alive and well and able to sign the order to pull all US forces out of South Korea.

This would lead to the same result pulling US forces out of South Vietnam had...except that KJU has a better army than Ho Chi Minh had, and the Korean People's Army has been training longer.
