The Return
“We have been asking for the release of these detainees for … 17 months,” Mike Pompeo said. “We’ll talk about it again today. I think it’d be a great gesture if they would choose to do so.”
Trump kept his word and was there to meet the men as they arrived in America.
“This is a special night for these three really great people,” Trump told reporters who were present.
Trump said, “we’re starting off on a new footing,” as he discussed his new relationship with the North Koreans.
The names three men were Kim Dong Chul, Kim Hak Song and Tony Kim.
“We would like to express our deep appreciation to the United States Government, President Trump, Secretary Pompeo, and the people of the United States for bringing us home,” they said. “We thank God, and all our families and friends who prayed for us and for our return. God Bless America, the greatest nation in the world.”
