US President Donald Trump, speaking to his supporters in the city of Phoenix, Arizona, suggested that the leader of the DPRK, Kim Jong-un, began to respect the United States.

The President said: "I respect that fact, and I believe in it that Kim Jong-un began to respect us. I respect this fact.

Perhaps, something good will come of this ".

Recall, the situation on the Korean Peninsula remains extremely tense with the background of Pyongyang's active development of its missile program. In July, the DPRK twice tested ballistic missiles, which caused an acute reaction from the United States, Japan and South Korea. Trump, in particular, said that the DPRK should not threaten Washington, and promised to respond to the attacks with "fire and fury that the world has never seen".
