HANOI: US President Donald Trump has said he would never call Kim Jong-Un "short and fat", after months of trading personal insults and threats of war with the North Korean leader.
Trump has earlier called the North Korean leader a variety of names, including "Rocket Man" and "madman".
In response, Kim Jong-un labelled the American president a "dotard".
"Why would Kim Jong-Un insult me by calling me 'old,' when I would NEVER call him 'short and fat?' Oh well, I try so hard to be his friend - and maybe someday that will happen!" Trump tweeted from Hanoi, the latest leg of his marathon tour of Asia.
