Potential talks with Kim in three or four weeks: Trump
Washington, April 29: US President Donald Trump has said that there would likely be a US-North Korea meeting in the "next three or four weeks", but "whatever happens, happens", the media reported.
Trump made the remarks while addressing a boisterous crowd at a rally on Saturday outside Detroit, reports Efe news.
"We are doing things that are good. I think we'll have a meeting over the next three or four weeks, it's going to be a very important meeting", Trump said.
"The denuclearization of the Korean peninsula, of North Korea. The de-nuke! De-nuke! But we'll see how it goes. And again, whatever happens, happens”.
"Look, I may go in. It may not work out. I leave... I'm not going to give you what's going to actually happen because we don't really know", the President added, to loud cheers.
Trump spoke with South Korean President Moon Jae-In earlier on Saturday, and in the speech he said the Seoul leader credited him for the apparent progress with Kim, reports CNN.
"He gives us tremendous credit... He gives us all the credit," Trump said of Moon later at the rally.
The White House has previously said that Trump would meet with Kim at the end of May or beginning of June.

Trump's Saturday remarks comes after Kim on Friday crossed the demilitarized zone that divides the Korean Peninsula and met Moon, the first time the leaders of North and South Korea met in person since 2007.
Following a full day of talks and symbolic events, both Moon and Kim issued a statement calling for the end of the Korean War and heralding a "new era of peace".

Kangana Ranaut's 'Emergency' banned in Bangladesh ahead of release
Mumbai: Kangana Ranaut's upcoming film Emergency, based on the life of former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, has been banned in Bangladesh just days before its release, reportedly due to political tensions between the two nations.
According to a source quoted by News18, the ban is attributed to strained India-Bangladesh relations rather than the film’s content. The source stated, "The decision to halt the screening of Emergency in Bangladesh is tied to the current strained relations between India and Bangladesh. The ban is less about the content of the film and more about the ongoing political dynamics between the two nations."
The film portrays India’s involvement in the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War, highlighting Indira Gandhi’s leadership and her relationship with Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the founding father of Bangladesh. It also depicts Rahman’s assassination by Bangladeshi extremists.
Emergency stars Kangana Ranaut, Anupam Kher, Shreyas Talpade, Vishak Nair, Mahima Chaudhry, Milind Soman, and the late Satish Kaushik. Initially slated for a September 2024 release, the film was postponed after failing to meet Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) requirements. It later secured a U/A certification with 13 mandated changes.
The film is scheduled to release on 17 January 2025.
