President Moon Jae-in and his U.S. counterpart, Donald Trump, will hold a summit April 11 in Washington D.C., Cheong Wa Dae said Friday, amid a stalemate in nuclear talks between the U.S. and North Korea.
"The trip is aimed at discussing the agenda for the imminent visit to the U.S. by the president," Kim said before his departure from Incheon International Airport.
When asked about the possibilities of including issues such as the reopening of shuttered Gaesweong Industrial Complex in the North and resuming a long-suspended tour program to the North's Mount Geumgang on the summit agenda, Kim said he could not currently speak on these matters. (Yonhap)
