A former U.S. President, Jimmy Carter, has indicated willingness to travel to North Korea in a bid to help diffuse the growing tension between the U.S. and North Korea, according to reports.
The Democrat who was president from 1977 to 1981 when asked if it was time for another diplomatic mission said; "I would go, yes".
Carter, 93 said he had spoken to a friend who is Trump's National Security Adviser Lt.-Gen. H. R. McMaster, but said he had not gotten a positive response.
In the mid 1990s, the former president traveled to Pyongyang over the objections of President Bill Clinton, and struck a deal with Kim Il Sung, grandfather of the current leader.
