\"Mr. Prime Minister, thank you. Mr. Prime Minister, thank you for hosting me here; I know it's a Saturday. I appreciate you and your team spending time with my team as well. We think it\u2019s very important, and we expect it will be very productive. It\u2019s important for us to hear from you as we \u2013 as I travel to Pyongyang to make sure that we\u2019re fully in sync with respect to missile programs, the CBW program. We will bring up the issue of the abductees as well. And then we\u2019ll share with you how we hope to proceed when we\u2019re in Pyongyang tomorrow so we\u2019ll have a full coordinated, unified view of how to proceed, which will be what is needed if we\u2019re going to be successful in denuclearizing North Korea.<\/p>\n
And finally, President Trump wanted me to make sure and express how much he enjoyed the time he got to spend with you in New York. And I wanted to tell you how excited I am about the openings that we now have to get our trade arrangements, our trade agreement in place. I think there\u2019s a real opportunity. I think this is incredibly important for each of our two countries.\"<\/p>", "quote": null, "citation": "
