Over the weekend, Trump and Kim separately expressed their willingness to meet on June 12 in Singapore as originally planned, despite the fact that on May 24, Trump abruptly canceled the US-North Korea summit citing hostile comments by Pyongyang and stressing that he was looking forward to meeting with the North Korean leader "someday."
Yet, the following day, Trump indicated he might still meet with Kim as scheduled or postpone the summit.
The White House delegation has arrived in North Korea in order to hold talks on the preparation for the highly anticipated summit between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, according to The Washington Post.
