  • President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un held a private meeting on Tuesday morning.
  • Experts are concerned Trump could have gone off-script and may provide an unreliable account of events.
  • With only the leaders and their interpreters present, there may never be a full transcript of the meeting, potentially denying US officials the ability to analyze Kim’s words to Trump.
  • The US interpreter will create an official record of the meeting but this may not be a full transcript.

President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un held their first-ever meeting, and there may never be a full record of what was said.

After meeting shortly after 9 a.m. (local time) for a handshake and photo-op, the two leaders entered a library at Capella Hotel on Singapore’s Sentosa Island to begin a one-on-one bilateral meeting. The two men were each accompanied only by an interpreter, raising concerns among experts.
