Trump tweeted that “anything in this very interesting world is possible” but he believed in Kim Jong-un and that North Korea's head of state did not want to break the promises he made to the US president.
Anything in this very interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realizes the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere or end it. He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!

However, the JSC avoided the word "missiles" in its later statements.
