posted by Hannity Staff - 8.02.18

President Trump publicly thanked North Korean leader Kim Jong Un Thursday for returning the remains of US soldiers who died in the Korean War; adding he looks forward to meeting the communist ruler in the near future.

The Commander-in-Chief praised Kim’s decision to return the remains just hours after Vice President Pence received the war heroes at a ceremony in Hawaii; saying he appreciates the regime’s “kind action.”

“Thank you to Chairman Kim Jong Un for keeping your word & starting the process of sending home the remains of our great and beloved missing fallen! I am not at all surprised that you took this kind action. Also, thank you for your nice letter – l look forward to seeing you soon!” Trump tweeted.

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders released a statement regarding Kim’s actions, confirming the President and his North Korean counterpart have an “ongoing correspondence.”

“The ongoing correspondence between the two leaders is aimed at following up on their meeting in Singapore and advancing the commitments made in the US-DPRK joint statement,” Sanders said.

President Trump confirmed Wednesday that the North Korean government has already returned the remains of 200 American soldiers killed in the Korean War; telling a crowd of supporters the recovered bodies were being “sent back today.”

“We got back our great fallen heroes, the remains sent back today, already 200 got sent back,” Trump told a rally in Minnesota this week.

The confirmation comes after months of back-and-forth negotiations between US and North Korean authorities ahead of June’s historic Singapore Summit.

According to the Pentagon, more than 36,500 US soldiers died in the Korean War between 1950 and 1953.

Approximately 7,700 remain unaccounted for.

Kim Jong Un is poised to return the remains of dozens of US soldiers this week; complying with previous agreements that called on his regime to handover the missing heroes by a July 27th deadline.

According to the New York Post, the Hermit Kingdom recently dispatched “two truckloads of wooden boxes” that are to be used for the transportation of those American soldiers killed in the Korean War.

“North Korea recently took two truckloads of wooden boxes to be used for the remains repatriation. It’s expected to hand over the remains on July 27 as agreed upon,” writes the Post.

Despite an eventual cease fire in 1953, North Korea, South Korea, and the United States are technically still at a state of war.

The initial agreement between Kim and the Trump administration calls for the remains to be airlifted to a forensic base in Hawaii, where they will hopefully be identified.
