USA, Washington : During a rally in Pennsylvania, U.S. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump emphasized the value of "getting along" with leaders such as North Korea's Kim Jong-un and Russia's Vladimir Putin, highlighting his personal rapport with Kim. Trump reflected on his brief 2019 visit to the North, where he crossed the Military Demarcation Line at Panmunjeom, noting North Korea's significant nuclear capabilities.
Trump criticized his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris, asserting she lacks the strength to handle leaders from authoritarian nations like North Korea, China, or Russia. He referenced Harris' recent CNN interview, remarking that she "did not project leadership" and expressing doubt about her ability to negotiate with someone like Kim Jong-un.
These comments from Trump followed Harris' nomination acceptance speech, where she vowed not to "cozy up to tyrants and dictators" like Kim Jong-un, who, according to her, support her Republican rival.
