According to a report from The Business Times Singapore, South Korea has indicated that North Korea appears to be showing interest in former U.S. President Donald Trump's overtures for renewed diplomatic talks. The report also highlights a discrepancy between Trump's assessment of the number of nuclear weapons North Korea possesses and the assessment held by South Korea. This development comes amid ongoing tensions and efforts to restart dialogue on the Korean Peninsula. The article references the last meeting between Trump and Kim Jong Un at the Demilitarised Zone in 2019, suggesting a potential shift in North Korea's stance towards engagement.
