US-North Korea summit appears to be 'possible at any time,' Seoul spy agency says

Asia-Pacific 2 sources 2 countries 🔦 Under-reported 50m ago

South Korea's intelligence agency has stated that a summit between the United States and North Korea is possible at any time. This assessment follows recent rhetoric from former U.S. President Donald Trump, who has expressed an interest in reviving his relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Trump previously held three high-profile summits with Kim during his first term in an effort to secure a denuclearization agreement.

While these past diplomatic engagements were characterized by personal rapport, they ultimately failed to produce tangible progress toward denuclearization. Current reports indicate that North Korea now possesses an estimated 57 nuclear weapons, a development that remains a central point of concern as discussions regarding potential future diplomatic outreach continue.
