Seoul: The United States and North Korea will meet again this month in an unidentified Asian country ahead of their leaders’ planned second summit in Vietnam in late February, South Korean officials said on Sunday.
The US special representative for North Korea, Stephen Biegun, visited Pyongyang last week to work out details of the February 27-28 summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. After being briefed by Biegun about his discussions in North Korea, South Korea’s presidential office said that the US and North Korea used Biegun’s trip as a chance to explain what concrete steps they want from each other.
South Korea’s national security adviser Chung Eui-yong, who met Biegun, reported that US-North Korea diplomacy “is working well,” presidential spokesman Kim Eui-kyeom said. He said a follow-up US-North Korea meeting ahead of the summit will take place in a third country in Asia in the week that begins February 17. (AP)
