There has been speculation U.S. President Donald Trump could sit down with North Korea's Kim Jong-un while he's in South Korea this weekend,... but Trump made clear on Wednesday that a meeting will not take place at this time.
Rather, he cryptically explained he may be in contact with Kim in a different way.
Kim Hyo-sun tells us more.
President Trump says he has no plans to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong-un during his visit to South Korea this weekend.
Before leaving Washington for the G20 Summit in Japan, Trump told reporters Wednesday that he may be speaking with Kim in a different form.
He also stressed he will be meeting with a lot of people but not Kim Jong-un.
Trump elaborated a day earlier that he will meet with the North's leader at some point,... when asked about whether the letters he has recently exchanged with Kim might lay the path for a possible third North-U.S. summit.
President Trump will sit down with South Korean President Moon Jae-in in Seoul on Sunday, and is reportedly planning to visit the demilitarized zone between the two Koreas,... prompting speculation a third Kim-Trump summit could be arranged.
Now it's left to be seen whether Washington's Special Representative for North Korea Stephen Biegun, who's due in Seoul on Thursday,... can arrange working-level talks with the North to resume the stalled denuclearization process.
