US President Donald Trump will host South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in for talks at the White House on May 22, as anticipation builds for much-awaited meetings with the North’s leader.
“This third summit between the two leaders affirms the enduring strength of the United States-Republic of Korea alliance and the deep friendship between our two countries,” the White House said in a statement.
Moon met North Korean leader Kim Jong-un last month, and both sides promised to pursue the complete denuclearisation of the peninsula and a permanent peace.
North Korea has offered to close its nuclear test site this month – and invited US experts to verify the move.
