President Donald Trump cut short his two-day summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Hanoi, ending the talks early and leaving empty-handed as he returns to Washington facing heavy scrutiny over his former lawyer Michael's Cohen's testimony to Congress.

At a press conference in the Vietnamese capital, Trump said talks broke down because Kim demanded that the U.S. lift all sanctions on North Korea.
