트럼프, 북미정상회담 장소로 판문점 평화의집•자유의집 거론+트럼프 "문대통령과 '북미정상회담 판문점 개최' 논의"<br /><br /> It looks like last Friday's inter-Korean summit made an impression on U.S. President Donald Trump<br />He's now suggested that the truce village of Panmunjom would be good as a venue for his own meeting with Kim Jong-un in the coming weeks.<br />He said the border area as a meeting site would be representative, important and lasting.<br />Kim Hyo-sun tells us more. <br /> The truce village of Panmunjom,... where the leaders of the two Koreas renewed their commitment to establish peace on the Korean Peninsula,... is being considered as a possible venue for the U.S.-North Korea Summit scheduled for late May or early June. <br />After meeting with his Nigerian counterpart at the White House on Monday,... President Trump said the inter-Korean border would be an excellent venue for the summit. <br /><br /> "We're looking at various countries including Singapore, and we are also talking about the possibility of the DMZ - Peace House, Freedom House. And there's something that I thought was intriguing... There's something that I like about it, because you are there. You're actually there, where if things work out, there's a great celebration to be had, on the site, not in a third party country." <br /><br />He also tweeted on Monday that the Peace House or the Freedom House on the inter-Korean border could be a more representative, important and lasting site than a third party country. <br />Until late last week,... Trump had said potential summit locations had been whittled down to two countries,... including Singapore. <br /> But it looks like President Trump discussed the idea of holding the summit at Panmunjom during his phone talks with South Korean President Moon Jae-in following last week's inter-Korean summit. <br />After their conversation,... which Trump hailed as long and good,... he also added that things are going well and the time and location of the meeting is being set.<br /> If Panmunjom is finalized as the venue for the first-ever meeting between the sitting leaders of the U.S. and North Korea,... the inter-Korean border, which has long been a symbol of division would likely become a true symbol of peace.<br />Kim Hyo-sun, Arirang News. <br />
