Trump said he will be meeting with Kim in the coming weeks to discuss the de-nuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula.

Robert Wood, the top U.S. envoy to the UN-hosted conference on disarmament, said the country would maintain a "maximum pressure campaign" to convince North Korea to denuclearise, even as preparations for the summit continued, adding that it "has had an important impact in the North's decision to return to the table".

"Hopefully that meeting will be a great success and we're looking forward to it". We won't have it.

"If I think that if it's a meeting that is not going to be fruitful we're not going to go".

The executive director of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons said mutual threats between the two leaders had made the risk of nuclear confrontation "really dangerously high".

But speaking alongside Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Wednesday, after the allies met at Trump's Florida resort, he made clear that he'd still be ready to pull the plug on what is being billed as an extraordinary meeting between the leaders of longtime adversaries. None of them are in the US.

"Obviously it's going to be very hard for the rest of the world to actually influence this meeting".

Liberty Global (LBTYA) Receives Average Recommendation of "Hold" from Analysts
The stock price is moving from its 200 days moving average with 1.4 percent and from 50 days moving average with 1.17 percent. The company also weighed on the Dow Jones Industrial Average, where it is the ninth heaviest-weighted member on the index.

North Korea, a small, authoritarian nation surrounded by bigger and richer neighbors, has always linked its pursuit of nuclear weapons to what it calls a "hostile" USA policy that is embodied by the 28,500 US troops stationed in South Korea, the 50,000 stationed in Japan, and the "nuclear umbrella" security guarantee that Washington offers allies Seoul and Tokyo.

North Korea has been isolated for decades because of its alleged human rights abuses and its pursuit of nuclear weapons, in defiance of global laws and United Nations sanctions.

Fihn said it was unclear how Trump would get North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons while other countries held onto theirs and threatened to use them, but it was possible that he and Kim would hit it off.

News of Pompeo's trip to North Korea, which took place more than two weeks ago, emerged on Tuesday, as lawmakers weighed whether he should be confirmed to become secretary of state. Moon, a liberal committed to engaging the North despite being forced to take a hard line in the face of repeated North Korean weapons tests previous year, is eager to make the summit a success and pave the way for Kim and Trump to settle the deep differences they have over the North's decades-long pursuit of nuclear weapons. In 2014, the then-director of USA national intelligence, James Clapper, secretly visited North Korea to bring back two American detainees. Trump complained in his election campaign about the cost of keeping those in Korea but his administration has given no indication of any plan to withdraw them. When North Korea has previously talked about "hostility" it has been linked to the USA troops in South Korea. This should have been taken care of by past administrations when they were not almost so far along.

In recent months, North Korea has signaled willingness to discuss denuclearization.

"By envisioning multiple scenarios, we carefully thought out our policies and directions at a concrete and detailed level". "Just because North Korea is responding to dialogue, there should be no reward".

Yet, both the United States and North Korea have been mutually working towards a summit in which the two would meet and discuss the nuclear program issue.
