North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is concerned about security and potential attempts on his life at his upcoming summit with President Trump in Singapore, according to a report.
Singapore will be the farthest Kim has traveled from the hermit nation since ascending to power after his father Kim Jong Il died in 2011, per Bloomberg.
The historic meeting, to be held at the Capella Hotel on Sentosa Island, is set to take place on June 12 following its temporary cancellation at the behest of Trump.
It was reinstated after a White House visit from Kim Jong Un’s spy chief, Kim Yong Chol, on June 1.
Bloomberg also reported that Trump was considering hosting Kim Jong Un for a follow-up discussion at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla., if the first round of in-person discussions go off without a hitch.
Delegations from both countries are continuing to hammer out final details for the event, including how North Korea will pay for its accommodation.
In preparation for the summit, Trump has started receiving daily briefings on the rogue nation’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
