United States President Donald Trump on Sunday (local time) informed that his team has arrived in North Korea to make arrangements for much-talked-of summit with Kim Jong Un.
President Trump took to his Twitter account to appreciate North Korea in terms of its present economic position.
"Our United States team has arrived in North Korea to make arrangements for the Summit between Kim Jong Un and myself. I truly believe North Korea has brilliant potential and will be a great economic and financial Nation one day. Kim Jong Un agrees with me on this. It will happen!" Trump tweeted.
Earlier the Washington Post reported that there is a slew of meetings to be conducted between the US and North Korea about Pyongyang's nuclear weapons programme slated for next two days.
This comes in the backdrop of surprise meeting on May 26 between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to discuss the possible forthcoming US-North Korea summit, announced South Korea.
According to Moon, Kim was concerned if he could trust the US with the security of its regime in return for denuclearisation.
The recent development had come after Trump, in a Twitter post, wrote that the summit could still happen on June 12 as previously scheduled.
