川普聲稱與朝鮮領導人金正恩關係良好
President Donald Trump suggested Tuesday he is on very good terms with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un despite their recent debate over whose desk has a bigger nuclear button.
"I probably have a very good relationship with Kim Jong Un," Trump told The Wall Street Journal Thursday, adding, "I have relationships with people. I think you people are surprised."
When asked if he has talked to Kim, Trump replied, "I don't want to comment on it. I'm not saying I have or haven't. I just don't want to comment."
Trump has in the past called Kim "short and fat" and "a bad dude." He has been fond of mocking Kim as "little rocket man" because of North Korean missile tests.
Kim has called Trump a "mentally deranged dotard" and has threatened to tame him with fire.
Trump appeared to tell the Journal that his tweeted insults and the cryptic comment about good relations with Kim is part of his strategy.
"You'll see that a lot with me," he said about his tweets. "And then all of the sudden somebody's my best friend. I could give you 20 examples. ... I'm a very flexible person."
The president has gone back and forth between an apparent willingness to meet with Kim and calling such talks, including Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's overtures to the North, a waste of time.
Just this past Wednesday, Trump told South Korean President Moon Jae-in by telephone he is now open to talking to North Korea "at the appropriate time under the right circumstances."
Trump also said he hopes this week's talks between North and South Korea -- the first in two years -- will "lead to success for the world."川普總統星期四表示，他與朝鮮領導人金正恩關係良好，儘管兩人最近爲誰的辦公桌上有更大的發射核武器按鈕大打口水仗。
川普總統星期四對華爾街日報說：“我大概與金正恩有很好的關係。我和很多人都保持關係。我想你們大概感到意外吧。”
在回答他是否與金正恩講過話的問題時，川普說：“我不想評論。我不說我有過還是沒有過，就是不想發表評論。”
川普曾經稱金正恩爲“矮胖子”和“壞傢伙”，還喜歡以朝鮮經常試射火箭爲題嘲笑金正恩是個“小火箭人”。
金正恩說川普是“神經錯亂的瘋老頭”，並威脅以火力來懲治他。
川普看來是想告訴華爾街日報，他在推特上對金正恩的嘲弄之詞以及有關兩人關係良好等含義模糊的言論都是他戰略的一部分。
川普總統談到他的推文時說：“你會看到我經常這樣，有人突然就成了我最好的朋友。我可以給你20個例子。我是靈活性很大的人。”
川普總統看來在兩點之間徘徊，有時表示願意與金正恩對話，有時又稱這樣的對話，包括蒂勒森國務卿對朝鮮伸出的橄欖枝，純屬浪費時間。
川普總統星期三和韓國總統文在寅通電話時說，他現在願意在適當的時間和條件下與朝鮮會談。
川普總統還說，他希望這個星期韓國和朝鮮的高層會談有利於爲世界帶來成功。這是兩年來韓國與朝鮮第一次舉行高層會談。
