North Korea launches missiles as Trump seeks to rekindle nuclear talks

North Korea launched several short-range missiles shortly after Trump expressed expectations to hold new talks with Kim Jong Un, according to reports from South Korea and Japan. In a separate development, Trump publicly disclosed that North Korea possesses exactly 57 nuclear weapons in its arsenal. This disclosure marks the first instance of a U.S. official providing a specific number regarding the stockpile held by Pyongyang as diplomatic efforts to rekindle nuclear discussions continue.
