Donald Trump thanked North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un on Friday for 'fulfilling a promise' to return the remains of American servicemen

The remains of what United Nations Command confirmed as 55 U.S. servicemen were part of a ceremony Friday, in which an American military plane arrived in the hermit kingdom to retrieve them

The handover took place on the 65th anniversary of the end of the Korean War which lasted from 1950 to 1953

'We have many others coming, but I want to thank Chairman Kim in front of the media for fulfilling a promise that he made to me,' Trump declared
