The U.S. and North Korea are pushing to salvage a summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un planned for June 12 in Singapore.
As of Friday morning in Asia, it appeared likely to go ahead. Trump remained optimistic, telling reporters that talks with North Korea were “going along very well.” He also floated the possibility there could be two meetings with Kim or none at all. In a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Kim said North Korea remains committed to denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and said he hoped it would “be solved on a stage-by-stage basis.”
