Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter has reportedly said he would be prepared to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in an attempt to bring "permanent peace" to the Korean Peninsula.
"Should former President Carter be able to visit North Korea, he would like to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and discuss a peace treaty between the United States and the North, and a complete denuclearization of North Korea," Park Han-shik, professor of international affairs at the University of Georgia, said in an interview published by South Korea's JoongAng Daily on Tuesday.
Park claimed that Carter visited his home at the end of September and told him that he wanted to "contribute toward establishing a permanent peace regime on the Korean Peninsula."
Carter's comments could further aggravate President Donald Trump after media reports surfaced last month which said a senior U.S. state department official had been sent by the White House to ask Carter not to speak publicly about the geopolitical crisis.

Damn word suggestion function.
How about we trade them Jimmy Carter and Dennis Rodman for their weight in kimchi? Seems fair to me.
Good idea. Send him over. Prep him with temporary total anesthetic and implant tracking devices that will be undectable by his hosts. When the device goes off in the presence of the Nork top leadership, push the button to launch the nuke.
Jimmy is breaking the law. It's called the Logan Act.
A bag of peanuts and a refurbished house to win the nasty dictator’s heart??
With the best of intentions, Neville Chamberlin stepped in to defuse a volatile situation. I'm sure Jimmy has the best of intentions, too - the number one trait of a "useful idiot".
I guess Dennis Rodman is retired now?
Chamberlain knew war was inevitable, but also that Britain wasn’t ready yet for war.
Precisely, and that's why I'm happy to have Mattis calling the shots.
I hope the President allows him full reign.
Don’t forget how Peanut Man threw the Shah of Iran - one of our most reliable allies at the time - under the bus and helped install the mad mullahs.
We think he did enough to establish “peace” when clinton was in power.
Mr Carter,
You were given FOUR YEARS to do things like this... you didn’t and you were fired.
IT’S NOT YOUR JOB ANY MORE, PAL.
So mind your own business and stop meddling in other people’s business. Your retired. - that means RETIRE.
Will it be anything like the “permanent peace” he structured between the Paleostinians and Israel?
Will it be anything like the peace he got for appeasing the Ayatoilet Khomeini?
Why are you wanting to cheat them.
First Dennis Rodman and now Jimmy Carter.
No wonder Kim thinks he can beat us up.
Thanks, but no thanks, Jimmy.
You did such a good job of reconciling the Shah with Ayatollah Khomeini, one might think you could talk Kim Jong Un into reuniting North and South Korea.
Little man with over-exaggerated Self-Importance, little does he know that absolutely nobody cares one bit about him.
So, how many pallets will “permanent” peace cost?
Why would Carter make any difference? Can anyone list his successful accomplishments other than growing peanuts?
Jimmy-the-peanut-farmer wants to play Santa Claus and give away more US Technology the way a Demon Rat Democrat should.
