Washington, May 5 : Ahead of his much-awaited summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, US President Donald Trump will host his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in at the White House on May 22, according to an official announcement today.
During the meeting, Moon would brief Trump on his recent summit meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
Moon met with Kim Jong-un last week at a Korean border village during last week’s inter-Korea summit. The two leaders agreed to end hostile acts against each other along their tense border, establish a liaison office and resume reunions of separated families.
They also agreed to achieve a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula, but failed to produce specific time frames and disarmament steps.
Trump himself is scheduled to have a summit meeting with Kim Jong-un, the date and venue for which “have been decided and will be announced soon”.
