A new documentary broadcast by the BBC revealed, Monday, that former US President Donald Trump offered North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to board Air Force One, to return to Pyongyang after the Hanoi summit that brought them together two years ago . Kim and Trump first got involved in an argument and exchanged threats, before their relationship was overwhelmed by the warmth to hold peaks that attracted great attention and Trump expresses his love for Kim. However, no progress was achieved, as negotiations between them reached a dead end after their meeting in Hanoi ended in a dispute over the issue of sanctions relief and concessions that Pyongyang would be willing to offer in return. According to a BBC documentary entitled “Trump sweeps the world,” “(the US president) shocked even the most experienced diplomats” when he offered Kim to board the US presidential plane after the 2019 summit in Vietnam. Had Kim accepted the offer, he would have boarded the plane, accompanied by some of those close to him, that would have entered North Korean airspace, which raises many question marks on the security front. But Kim turned down the offer. “President Trump has offered Kim to get on his Air Force One,” Matthew Pottinger, chief expert on Asia at the Trump National Security Council, told the BBC. “The president learned that Kim arrived on a train journey that lasted for several days through China to Hanoi, and the president said, ‘I can drive you to your country within two hours if you like +. Kim refused.'”
