Moon-Kim hotline likely to be set up this week

"For years, we have kept back channels to North Korea through intelligence", Corker told reporters at a breakfast sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor. Two officials confirmed the trip to The Associated Press on Tuesday.

North and South Korea have agreed to allow live television broadcasts for parts of the summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in next week, South Korea's presidential office said Wednesday.

Kim visited China earlier this year, and he reportedly assured his Chinese counterpart that he's committed to denuclearization - albeit with some conditions.

Russian Federation also reportedly wants to land a spot on Kim's schedule, though the official told CNN the Hermit Kingdom has yet to respond to that invitation. A senior South Korean presidential official said Wednesday the peace talks are a possible subject, but that the discussion of formally ending the war would need to involve the other relevant parties.

"Five locations" were being considered for the summit with Kim, Trump said.

The officials spoke anonymously about Pompeo's trip because they were not authorized to discuss it publicly. "People don't realize the Korean War has not ended", explained Trump.

Republican Senator Bob Corker, who has said he "avidly" supports Pompeo's nomination, told reporters the meeting was unlikely to affect the nomination because it is not news that US intelligence has had connections with North Korea.

Trump took credit for the inter-Korean talks, saying, "Without us and without me, in particular, I guess you would have to say, they wouldn't be discussing anything". The president and first lady Melania Trump later hosted Abe and his wife for an al fresco dinner on the Mar-a-Lago patio.

Abe said that Trump had promised to bring up the Japanese abductee issue in his meeting with Kim. "I am very grateful for your commitment". Five have been returned to Japan. Japan has demanded further investigation. "Look how bad WTO is to U.S".

On a related topic, "the United States would probably like to see a free trade agreement (with Japan) come out at some point", Kudlow told reporters early Tuesday afternoon just hours before Trump and Abe met.
