US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that the summit scheduled with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un for June 12 in Singapore has been cancelled.

In a letter to Kim, Trump said he made the decision based on the "tremendous anger and open hostility" in a recent North Korean statement.

Trump said it would be "inappropriate" to hold the summit as scheduled in Singapore, adding, he was very much looking forward to meeting him "some day".
