KOMPAS.TV - Presiden Amerika Serikat Donald Trump mengatakan Pimpinan Korea Utara Kim Jong Un pernah memamerkan bahwa ia membunuh pamannya Jang Song Thaek pada Trump.
Jang Shong merupakan tokoh sangat kuat di rezim kepemimpinan Kim. Jang Shong dieksekusi karena berkhianat dan korupsi pada 2013.
Hal ini terungkap dalam sebuah wawancara Donald Trump dengan Jurnalis Senior Investigasi Washington Post Bob Woodward dalam bukunya "RAGE".
"Woodward wrote that Trump said he was impressed with Kim when he first met the North Korean leader in Singapore in 2018 and that Kim was "far beyond smart." Trump also said that Kim "tells me everything" and even gave the president a graphic account of how Kim had his own uncle killed," tulis kantor berita AP (10/9/2020).
CTVNews juga menuliskan bahwa Trump menyebutkan Kim Jong Un membunuh pamannya dan meletakkan mayatnya tepat di tangga dan kepalanya diletakkan di dada.
"He killed his uncle and he put the body right in the steps, And the head was cut, sitting on the chest," ujar Trump dilansir dari AFP (11/9/2020).
