HANOI, Vietnam (AFP) — US President Donald Trump said Thursday he was “in no rush” during talks on North Korea’s nuclear programme, saying that results would be achieved over the longer term.

“Speed is not that important to me,” added Trump, saying it was more important to “do the right deal” over dismantling the North’s nuclear arsenal.
