Former U.S. President Donald Trump has told associates he has remained in contact with North Korea’s reclusive leader Kim Jong Un since leaving the White House, according to a report on Thursday, as Pyongyang’s recent ballistic missile tests have raised international tensions.

As we know, he had a fixation on this relationship, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman told CNN. The revelation is contained in her upcoming book on Trump, The Confidence Man.

Trump famously declared in 2018 that he and Kim “fell in love” after exchanging letters, but two meetings with the North Korean leader aimed at denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula failed to stem the country’s missile testing and harsh rhetoric.

Trump’s claims could not be verified and may not be true, Haberman said.

What he says and what’s actually happening are not always in concert, but he has been telling people that he has maintained some kind of a correspondence or discussion with Kim Jong Un, she said.
