SEOUL: Kim Jong Un invited Donald Trump to seek advice from North Korea during their ancient summit and the US President authorized, Pyongyang state media reported Wednesday, calling it the beginning of a "radical switchover" within the nuclear-armed Cold War foes' fraught relations.
The unparalleled come across in Singapore Tuesday saw the leader of the world's maximum robust democracy shake hands with the third technology scion of a dynastic dictatorship, standing as equals in front in their nations' flags.
Kim agreed to the "complete denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula", a stock word favoured by Pyongyang that stopped in need of long-standing US calls for for North Korea to surrender its atomic arsenal in a "verifiable" and "irreversible" means.
In its first report on the landmark summit, the legitimate KCNA news company ran a glowing dispatch on the talks, describing them as an "epoch-making meeting" that would help foster "a radical switchover in the most hostile (North Korea)-US relations".
The report said the 2 men each and every requested the other to seek advice from their country.
"The two top leaders gladly accepted each other's invitation," KCNA said.
Pyongyang has reason to feel confident after the meeting which used to be a significant coup for an remoted and closely sanctioned regime that has long craved global legitimacy.
In a blockbusting press conference after the summit, Trump said the US would halt military workout routines with Seoul -- one thing long sought by Pyongyang, which claims the drills are a practice session for invasion.
The US stations around 30,000 troops in security best friend South Korea to offer protection to it from its neighbour, which invaded in 1950 in an attempt to reunify the peninsula by power.
"We will be stopping the war games which will save us a tremendous amount of money," Trump told newshounds, adding that "at some point" he wanted to withdraw US troops from the South.
Both Seoul and US military commanders within the South indicated that they had no idea the announcement used to be coming, and analysts expressed immediate fear.
Ending the drills "is in excess of all expert consensus, South Korean requests, and even a close reading of North Korean demands", said Adam Mount of the Federation of American Scientists.
The KCNA report said Trump dedicated to ending the drills during his meeting with Kim.
It added that denuclearisation on the Korean peninsula would be dependent on the two facets "refraining from antagonising... each other out of mutual understanding".
The Singapore summit used to be a doubtlessly legacy-defining meeting for each men -- comparable to president Richard Nixon's 1972 seek advice from to China, or Ronald Reagan's 1986 summit with Mikhail Gorbachev in Reykjavik.
World powers from China to Japan, the European Union and Russia welcomed its end result -- while cautioning it used to be simplest the first step in opposition to resolving the nuclear stand-off with Pyongyang.
Many agreements were made previously with North Korea that have later fallen aside, and ahead of the meeting, critics expressed considerations that it risked being extra about headlines than substantive progress.
It also legitimised Kim, critics charged, feting a regime which stands accused of in style human rights abuses.
In the event, the 2 leaders showered each and every different with compliments within the luxurious environment of a luxurious Singapore lodge, a marked contrast from their previous rounds of mutual insults, such as "mentally deranged" and "little rocket man".
Trump said he had shaped a "special bond" with Kim, whom he described as "very talented".
KCNA said the 2 leaders ate and walked in combination, "deepening friendly feelings" in opposition to each and every different.
After a day stuffed with smiles and handshakes watched world wide, the US "committed to provide security guarantees" to North Korea, while Pyongyang dedicated to "work towards" denuclearising the Korean peninsula.
Melissa Hanham of the US-based Center for Nonproliferation Studies said on Twitter that North Korea had "already promised to do this many times," adding the 2 facets "still don't agree on what 'denuclearisation' means."
Asked about the issue -- the crux of the summit -- Trump said "we're starting that process" which would start "very, very quickly", but gave no concrete details.
Speaking later as he flew out of Singapore certain for the US territory of Guam -- in opposition to which Pyongyang final 12 months threatened to lob missiles -- Trump said he meant to hold North Korea to its word on denuclearisation.
"We're going to have to check it and we will check it. We'll check it very strongly," he told newshounds on Air Force One.
