President Donald Trump of the United States of America (U.S) and Chairman Kim Jong Un of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) have signed an agreement committing to work towards building a lasting and stable peace regime on the Korean Peninsula.

The agreement was signed during a summit attended by the two leaders in Singapore.

Trump and Kim Jong Un conducted a comprehensive, in-depth, and sincere exchange of opinions on the issues related to the establishment of new U.S.-DPRK relations and the building of a lasting and robust peace regime on the Korean Peninsula.

President Trump committed to providing security guarantees to the DPRK, and Chairman Kim Jong Un reaffirmed his firm and unwavering commitment to complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

According to Trump, the signed agreement was very important to both countries.

The agreement consisted of four major points:

  1. The United States and the DPRK committed to establishing new US-DPRK relations in accordance with the desire of the peoples of the two countries for peace and prosperity. (DPRK stands for the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, the formal name of North Korea.)
  2. The US and the DPRK will join their efforts to build a lasting and stable peace regime on the Korean Peninsula.
  3. Reaffirming April 27, 2018, Panmunjom Declaration, the DPRK commits to working toward the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.
  4. The US and the DPRK commit to recovering POW/MIA remains, including the immediate repatriation of those already identified.

The action has confused many as it can be remembered less than a year ago, the two leaders were involved in an exchange of words that proved some kind of animosity between them. Trump was threatening to rain down “fire and fury like the world has never seen” on North Korea while Kim, on the other hand, was calling Trump a “mentally deranged US dotard” and “carefully examining” plans for a missile strike on US military bases in Guam.

President Trump and Kim Jong Un have committed to cooperate for the development of new U.S.-DPRK relations and for the promotion of peace, prosperity, and security of the Korean Peninsula and of the world.
