After hours of discussions, Trump and Kim signed an agreement committing the United States to unspecified “security guarantees” in exchange for a denuclearized Korean Peninsula. The document also lacked specifics on the timeline or nature of denuclearization.

Trump in a subsequent tweet on Sunday that the deal "is being praised and celebrated all over Asia."

The denuclearization deal with North Korea is being praised and celebrated all over Asia. They are so happy! Over here, in our country, some people would rather see this historic deal fail than give Trump a win, even if it does save potentially millions & millions of lives! — Donald J.

North Korea had returned American hostages and destroyed a nuclear test site prior to the meeting as gestures of good faith. However, some U.S. officials have said the move could make it more difficult to verify what nuclear materials North Korea has.

Trump has spent the days since his summit with Kim repeatedly touting the results of their meeting. He has claimed North Korea is no longer a nuclear threat, despite the fact that the country has not yet abandoned its nuclear program.

He has highlighted North Korea's commitment to return the remains of U.S. soldiers killed in the Korean War.

Trump and administration officials have faced questions over the deal with North Korea, as well as the president's repeated praise of the North Korean leader, who is accused of having family members murdered, sending citizens to work camps and torturing American hostages.

Trump has also at various times called Kim "very talented," a "great negotiator," and someone who "loves his people." On Friday, he expressed admiration for Kim's control over North Korea.

The president has defended his praise of Kim, saying it's part of an effort to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula.

"I don’t want to see a nuclear weapon destroy you and your family," he told reporters.

“I want to have a good relationship with North Korea. I want to have a good relationship with many other countries,” the president added.
