Pence says Trump to meet North Korea's Kim in 2019
(VOVWORLD) - US Vice President Mike Pence said on Thursday President Donald Trump plans to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un next year but won’t repeat past mistakes of allowing promises to be broken on pledges to end arms programs.
The United States and North Korea have been discussing a second meeting between their leaders to follow up the Singapore summit in June and lay the groundwork for ending a nuclear stand-off between the old foes. With scant sign of progress on negotiations since the June summit and recent high-level meetings canceled, Trump said last week he’s now in “no rush” but still wants to meet with Kim for a second time.
