Trump says meet with North Korea's Kim could still go ahead on June 12

May 25, 2018 19:20

US President Donald Trump has revealed his administration is talking to North Korea right now and said the June 12 summit he cancelled a day earlier could still take place.

On Thursday, Trump cancelled his proposed summit meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on June 12 in Singapore and blamed Pyongyang's 'tremendous anger' and 'open hostility' for his dramatic decision.

Trump described the cancellation of the summit as 'a tremendous setback' for North Korea and warned that the US military is ready to act should Pyongyang take any 'foolish and reckless' action.

Washington has made it clear it wants to see the 'complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearisation' of the North. But Pyongyang has vowed it will never give up its nuclear deterrence until it feels safe from what it terms US aggression.
