North Korean and U.S. officials are holding 'behind-the-scenes talks' to arrange a third summit between President Trump and Kim Jong Un, South Korea's president said.
President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un take a walk during their meeting in Hanoi, Vietnam, on Feb. 28.
In a response Tuesday to questions by the Associated Press and other news agencies, South Korean President Moon Jae-in said that Trump’s and Kim's"willingness to engage in dialogue has never faded" and that their recent letter exchanges prove that. "The success of denuclearization and the peace process on the Korean peninsula cannot be determined by a summit or two," Moon said, adding that the discussions in Vietnam will form the basis for future talks."Both sides clearly understand the necessity for dialogue," he added.
In yet another reminder of North Korea's continued mistrust of the United States, however, its foreign ministry said earlier Wednesday it won't surrender to U.S.-led sanctions and accused Washington of trying to"bring us to our knees."
