The meeting between Trump and Kim Jong-un was initially planned for June 12 in Singapore, but on May 24, the US president sent a message to the leader of the DPRK, informing him that the meeting could not take place because of the hostile statements of Pyongyang. Trump did not rule out that the summit could pass later, and on May 25, he admitted that he would still meet with the leader of the DPRK in Singapore on June 12.
On Saturday, the White House informed that the government delegation will go on the previously approved schedule to Singapore to prepare for the summit on June 12 in case it does take place. At this meeting, it is supposed, the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula should be discussed.
