Ivanka Trump calls for 'maximum pressure' on North Korea

Tehran( KNA) - Ivanka Trump is leading a US delegation to the Winter Olympics in South Korea in an effort to show a softer side of US diplomacy on the peninsula while calling for maximum pressure to be put on North Korea.

Trump watched snowboarding events in Pyeongchang with South Korea's first lady, Kim Jung-sook, and foreign minister Kang Kyung-wha. Wearing a Team USA hat and red snowsuit, she captured the attention of local media. Her trip comes less than two weeks after Kim Yo-jong, Kim Jong-un's younger sister, visited the South and largely overshadowed US vice president Mike Pence.

"We cannot have a better, or smarter, person representing our country," Donald Trump said in an early morning tweet.
