多家媒體稱美中情局長與金正恩會談
CIA director Mike Pompeo traveled to Pyongyang for a secret meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, according to multiple media reports.
The meeting to prepare for direct talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and Kim took place over Easter weekend, according to unnamed officials reported by several news outlets.
Earlier Trump acknowledged the U.S. had held direct talks at high levels.
During a walk with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and their spouses on the grounds of Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, the president was asked by a reporter if he had talked with Kim. Trump turned towards the group of journalists, smiled and replied, “yes.”
A few minutes later, at the start of dinner with the Japanese couple, the president was again asked the same question. “Let's leave it a little bit short of that. But we've had talks at the highest level,” Trump replied. “And it's going very well. We'll see what happens.”
Within minutes, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders also knocked down any confirmation of direct communication between Kim and the president or his top officials.
“In regards to talks with Leader Kim Jong-un: The President said the administration has had talks at the highest levels and added that they were not with him directly,” Huckabee Sanders said in a comment e-mailed to reporters.
多家媒體報道，美國中央情報局局長蓬佩奧曾訪問朝鮮，并與朝鮮領導人金正恩秘密會談。
幾家資訊媒體援引未透露身份的美國官員的話說，蓬佩奧今年復活節的周末訪問朝鮮以及與金正恩會談是為川普總統與金正恩的直接會面做準備。
川普總統早些時候證實，美國與朝鮮舉行了高層會談。
日本首相安倍夫婦與川普總統夫婦在川普總統擁有的佛羅里達海湖莊園內散步時，一名記者問川普總統他是否與金正恩有過對話。川普總統朝向一組記者，笑著回答說：“是的。”
幾分鐘之后，在為日本首相夫婦舉辦的宴會上，川普總統又被問到同樣的問題。川普總統回答說：“還不能完全那樣說。但是我們雙方最高層有過對話，進展很好。我們看接下來會怎樣。”
白宮資訊秘書桑德斯隨即也否認金正恩與川普總統或高級美國官員有任何直接接觸。
桑德斯在發給一些記者的電郵中說：“有關與（朝鮮）領導人金正恩會談的問題：總統說是美國政府最高層進行的會談，并說不是直接與他本人。”
