TRUMP-KIM SUMMIT: DONALD TRUMP VOWS TO 'END WAR GAMES' IN 'NEW HISTORY' WITH NORTH KOREA
By Ben Riley-Smith, US editor, in Singapore 13 JUNE 2018 • 8:10AM – The Telegraph
Donald Trump unexpectedly suspended "war games" on the Korean peninsula yesterday as he convinced Kim Jong-un to back "complete denuclearisation" in a written agreement. The US has been carrying out joint military exercises for years in the region as a signal of its military alliance with Seoul (South Korea), and as a show of strength against North Korean aggression.
The US president said in a press conference after the Singapore summit: "It is a very great day, it is a very great moment, in the history of the world." He predicted Kim would start denuclearise "very quickly" and revealed that the North Korean leader had already agreed to destroy a missile engine testing site.
The climax of Mr Trump‘s meeting with Kim — the first between a sitting North Korean and American leader — was the signing of a joint agreement. The 400-word statement followed more than four hours of talks, first between the leaders one-on-one and then with a wider group of advisers.
It read: "President Trump and Chairman Kim Jong-un conducted a comprehensive, in-depth, and sincere exchange of opinions on the issues related to the establishment of new United States - North Korea relations and the building of a lasting and robust peace regime on the Korean Peninsula.
The statement went on to list four specific pledges that both Mr Trump and Kim agreed to stand by: The first was that both countries would establish "new relations" in the pursuit of "peace and prosperity" — an attempt to draw a line under the insults and threats of last year. The second said that America and North Korea would "join their efforts to build a lasting and stable peace regime on the Korean Peninsula". The third said that Kim‘s regime "commits to work toward complete denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula" — a key demand from the Americans. And the fourth promised that the remains of fallen US soldiers who died fighting in the Korean War would be repatriated to the United States.
Mr Trump said he "absolutely" would invite Kim to the White House and expressed enthusiasm for visiting North Korea, but said no dates had been set. Mr Trump also praised the leaders of Japan, South Korea and China as well as Kim himself for the progress made on the issue of denuclearisation.

A post on the St. Charles County police Facebook page said officers responded to a medical emergency at the residence around 12:40 p.m. (1:40 p.m. ET) Saturday and found an unresponsive man inside. Resuscitation efforts failed.
“The St. Charles County Police Department sadly confirms the death of Charles Edward Anderson Berry Sr., better known as legendary musician Chuck Berry.”
A musical legend
Berry wrote and recorded “Johnny B. Goode” and “Sweet Little Sixteen” -- songs every garage band and fledgling guitarist had to learn if they wanted to enter the rock ‘n’ roll fellowship.
Berry took all-night hamburger stands, brown-eyed handsome men and V-8 Fords and turned them into the stuff of American poetry. By doing so, he gave rise to followers beyond number, bar-band disciples of the electric guitar, who carried his musical message to the far corners of the Earth.
Some of his most famous followers praised him on social media.
Bruce Springsteen tweeted: “Chuck Berry was rock’s greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure rock ‘n’ roll writer who ever lived.”
Chuck Berry was rock’s greatest practitioner, guitarist, and the greatest pure rock ‘n’ roll writer who ever lived.
The Rolling Stones posted on their website: “The Rolling Stones are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Chuck Berry. He was a true pioneer of rock ‘n’ roll and a massive influence on us. Chuck was not only a brilliant guitarist, singer and performer, but most importantly, he was a master craftsman as a songwriter. His songs will live forever. “
But it was perhaps John Lennon -- who died in 1980 -- who put it most succinctly. “If you tried to give rock and roll another name, you might call it ‘Chuck Berry.’”
The list of Berry’s classics is as well-known as his distinctive, chiming “Chuck Berry riff”: “Maybellene.” “Around and Around.” “Brown-Eyed Handsome Man.” “School Days.” “Memphis.” “Nadine.” “No Particular Place to Go.”
They were deceptively simple tunes, many constructed with simple chord progressions and classic verse-chorus-verse formats, but their hearts could be as big as teenage hopes on a Saturday night.
His music even went into outer space. When the two Voyager spacecrafts were launched in 1977, each was accompanied on its journey to the outer reaches of the solar system by a phonograph record that contained sounds of Earth -- including “Johnny B. Goode.”

Drinking coffee could help you live longer Coffee not only helps you feel full of beans, it might add years to your life as well, two major studies have shown. Scientists in Europe and the US have uncovered the clearest evidence yet that drinking coffee reduces the risk of death.
One study of more than half a million people from 10 European countries found that men who downed at least three cups of coffee a day were 18% less likely to die from any cause than non-coffee drinkers. Women drinking the same amount benefited less, but still experienced an 8% reduction in mortality over the period measured.
Similar results were reported by American scientists who conducted a separate investigation, recruiting 185855 participants from different ethnic backgrounds. Irrespective of ethnicity, people who drank two to three cups of coffee daily had an 18% reduced risk of death.
Each of the studies, both published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, showed no advantage from drinking either caffeinated or decaffeinated coffee. Experts believe the antioxidant plant compounds in coffee rather than caffeine are responsible for the life-extending effect. Previous research has suggested that drinking coffee can reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, liver disease, and some cancers.
Dr Marc Gunter, from the International Agency for Research on Cancer, who led the European study with colleagues from Imperial College London, said: “We found that higher coffee consumption was associated with a lower risk of death from any cause and specifically for circulatory diseases and digestive diseases. Importantly, these results were similar across all of the 10 European countries, with variable coffee drinking habits and customs. Our study also offers important insights into the possible mechanisms for the beneficial health effects of coffee.”
