Trump pressured to raise North Korea's human rights issues 2019-02-28 11:36 | North Korea
U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday that he would discuss everything, including human rights, with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un at their summit in Hanoi.
Before sitting down for a second round of talks that day, the two briefly took questions from the media.
A journalist asked Kim if he would be "discussing human rights" with Trump.
While Kim's interpreter was translating the question, Trump cut in and said, "We're discussing everything … We're having very, very productive discussions."
