US President Donald Trump says he expects a second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un “quite soon”.

 

Speaking to reporters at the UN headquarters in New York, Mr Trump said Secretary of State Mike Pompeo would arrange it “in the immediate future”.

 

The president also said he saw “tremendous progress” in recent efforts to ease tension between the countries.

 

Just a year ago, the two nations were publicly speaking of a nuclear confrontation.

 

“That was a very dangerous time,” the president said. “This is one year later, a much different time.”

 

Mr Trump said Mr Kim had asked for a second summit through what he described as a “very warm” and “beautiful” personal letter.

 

Mr Moon recently completed a high-profile, three-day visit to Pyongyang – the first by a Southern leader to the North’s capital in a decade.
