A few days after the rumors about a possible death of the North Korean leader, the American president Donald Trump seemed to confirm, this Monday, that Kim Jong Un was alive, assuring to know his state of health and wishing him "good luck".

"I hope he's well," said Donald Trump at a press conference in the White House gardens.

Information given "in the fairly near future"

"I can't tell you exactly. Yes, I have a very good idea (of how it is), but I cannot speak about it now. I just wish him luck. The President said the media would "probably" have information on the subject "in the not too distant future."

News of Kim Jong Un's health has multiplied since his noticeable absence at the celebrations of the birth of his grandfather, founder of the regime, on April 15. Minimizing the rumors, South Korea's special adviser to national security Moon Jae-in said Kim Jong Un was "alive and well."
