HANOI, Vietnam — North Korea held a rare press conference in Hanoi, Vietnam, slightly after midnight local time on Friday, at the Melia Hotel, where North Korean leader Kim Jong Un stayed during his second meeting with President Donald Trump. Contrary to claims Trump made on Thursday in Hanoi, Ri said the North Koreans did not ask for full easing of sanctions in exchange for these actions.
The statement on sanctions was much different than Trump's assessment of the meeting earlier Thursday.
