Plans are reportedly being made for President Trump to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for a second summit in Vietnam.
Sources told Bloomberg that the Southeast Asia country is the likely location for the late-February summit, after a meeting at the White House with one of Kim’s top advisers.
The president held a historic summit with Kim in Singapore in June. During the meeting, the two leaders discussed plans to move word toward a denuclearized Korean Peninsula.
Trump’s hour-and-a-half meeting Friday with Kim Yong Chol, North Korea’s lead negotiator in nuclear talks, came after the president had a letter delivered to Kim Jong Un in Pyongyang last weekend.
In recent months, Pyongyang has expressed frustration with sanctions, but Trump shrugged off concerns, claiming talks were going “very well” with North Korea. Still, Trump’s national security adviser John Bolton said in December that North Korea was not abiding by the commitments it made during the summit in Singapore.
Trump previously traveled to Vietnam in 2017.
