(Reuters) - Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un traded insults and threats during his first presidency over Pyongyang's weapons programs, although they met three times and Trump once quipped "we fell in love" after exchanging letters.
But even with the three summits they held, Trump failed to persuade Kim to give up his nuclear weapons, while diplomatic efforts under the Biden administration also stalled with the North ignoring a call to meet "anywhere, anytime without preconditions".
