President Donald Trump touted his relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and said the two would meet "someday" just before a summit at the White House with South Koreas new president, Lee Jae Myung.During Trumps first term in office, the president met with Kim on multiple occasions including in Singapore in 2018, and then twice in 2019 in Vietnam and within North Korea for denuclearization talks."I have very good relationships with Kim Jong UN, North Korea," Trump told reporters at the White House Monday. "I mean, a lot of people would say, oh, that's terrible. No, it's good. In fact, someday I'll see him. I look forward to seeing him. He was very good with me. We had two meeting we had two summits. We got along great."WHITE HOUSE RESPONDS TO ROCKET MAN AND NORTH KOREA'S THREATS OVER DENUCLEARIZATION"I know him better than you do," Trump said. "I know him better than anybody almost, other than his sister. His sister knows him pretty well. No, I know him well. And I got along with him. You know, I'm not supposed to say I really like him a lot because if I do that, I get killed in the fake news media. But I got along with him very well."Denuclearization talks with Kim crumbled during Trumps first administration when the president refused to get on board with Kims request for sanctions relief, in exchange for shuttering North Koreas primary nuclear complex.While the current Trump administration has signaled ongoing interest in renewing denuclearization talks with North Korea, Kims sister Kim Yo Jong said in July that pressure from the White House for North Korea to denuclearize would be interpreted as "nothing but a mockery."TRUMP REMAINS 'RECEPTIVE' TO DIALOGUE WITH KIM JONG UN DESPITE REPORTED LETTER SNUB"The recognition of the irreversible position of the DPRK as a nuclear weapons state and the hard fact that its capabilities and geopolitical environment have radically changed should be a prerequisite for predicting and thinking everything in the future," Kim Yo Jong said in a statement in July published by the North Korean state news agency KCNA.Meanwhile, Trump also took a shot at ally South Korea hours before Lees scheduled arrival at the White House and weeks after the two agreed to a trade deal.NORTH KOREA BREAKS SILENCE ON TRUMP'S RETURN, SENDS MESSAGE FROM 'ROCKET MAN'"WHAT IS GOING ON IN SOUTH KOREA?

He told reporters he wasnt sure how accurate the media reports were, but that hed question Lee on the matter because he wouldnt "stand for that."The Associated Press contributed to this report.
