Trump's most terrifying moment: 'rifles were pointed at him' by rogue nation's gunmen

President Trump recounted a tale from his first term when he ventured into North Korea and found himself facing 'more rifles pointing' at him than anyone could imagine.

Trump did briefly cross the Demilitarised Zone between North and South Korea in 2019 following a meeting with Chairman Kim Jong Un, causing quite a stir globally.

While in the Oval Office with the South Korean President today, Trump reminisced about crossing the zone, stating "everyone went crazy, especially secret service." The news comes on the same week it emerged Trump's Russian counterpart, President Putin 'consulted shamans and mystics' for WW3 nuclear bomb 'blessings'

Trump added that as he stood amidst the iconic blue buildings of the DMZ zone, he "looked into those windows" and saw dozens of gunmen inside.

However, he felt secure due to his "solid" relationship with Kim Jong Un.

South Korea kick off

Trump's meeting with South Korea president Lee Jae Myung kicked off with commendations and a significant request - peace between North and South Korea. President Myung hinted that he is "looking forward" to a Trump tower in North Korea, as well as "playing golf" in the North.

North and South Korea effectively split in 1948 with the establishment of two separate governments, but the division was solidified after the Korean War (1950-1953) and the signing of an armistice. The division began in 1945, post World War II, when the Allied powers divided Korea into Soviet and American occupation zones at the 38th parallel, which became the border between the two Koreas.

'Purge or Revolution'

The South Korean president also stated that whilst he backs cordial relations between Trump and Kim Jong Un of North Korea, he reminded the US President that during Trump's absence from office, the North Korean leader had been advancing his nuclear programme.

Trump replied that "it wouldn't have happened" if he had remained in office, to which the Korean leader emphasised his agreement, adding that he anticipates Trump's involvement in resolving the situation.

President Trump welcomed Lee, South Korea's new president, after posting on Truth Social. "WHAT IS GOING ON IN SOUTH KOREA? Seems like a Purge or Revolution. We can't have that and do business there," Trump shared on social media Monday morning.

"I am seeing the new President today at the White House. Thank you for your attention to this matter! ! !"

Yoon, who secured a five-year mandate in 2022, was viewed as more ideologically aligned with Trump and had even returned to playing golf following Trump's re-election last November in a bid to bolster their relationship.
