Trump and Kim end private meeting
Trump and Kim have emerged from their one-on-one meeting, which lasted about 48 minutes.
Trump said the meeting was “very, very good” and that he and Kim have an “excellent relationship”.
The two leaders then went into an expanded bilateral meeting, where they are joined by key advisers.
After sitting down in the meeting room, Kim said we can expect “the dawn of peace” now that the “unhelpful past” has been left behind.
Trump said, “we will be successful”.
On the US side, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, National Security Adviser John Bolton and Chief of Staff John Kelly joined. North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho and Kim Yong-chol, who has been described as Kim's right hand man, were among those who joined Kim at the table.
