Kim commits to ‘complete denuclearisation of Korean Peninsula’

SINGAPORE, June 12, 2018 (AFP) – North Korean leader Kim Jong Un reaffirmed
his commitment to “complete denuclearisation of Korean Peninsula”, in a joint
agreement signed with President Donald Trump Tuesday.

The text made no mention of US demands for “complete, verifiable and
irreversible denuclearisation” — jargon for scrapping weapons and committing
to inspections — but did restate a vaguer commitment, AFP saw in a photo of
the document.
