You have never expected to meet you at this place.

President Trump meeting Kim Jong-un at the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea.

President Trump has just walked across the demarcation line that made him the first U.S. President to visit our country.

Stepping across that line was a great honor. A lot of progress has been made.

dictator higher than ever. President Trump, who once called him a madman, now says he's smart,

great successor, the divinely perfect destiny of a brilliant comrade Kim Jong-un. The author is Anna Fyfield.

She's Beijing Bureau Chief for the Washington Post. She's visited North Korea no less than a dozen

and in place and ready to carry on the revolution.

So that's their word,
