Korean leaders hold surprise second summit as Trump says Kim talks could go ahead
NBC, May 26, 2018, Stella Kim and Saphora Smith

SEOUL, South Korea — The leaders of North and South Korea met in the demilitarized zone separating the two countries on Saturday, hours after President Donald Trump suggested his June 12 summit with Kim Jong Un may still go ahead.

Kim and South Korean President Moon Jae-in reportedly discussed the denuclearization agreement the two leaders signed when they first met at the border last month, according to a statement released by South Korea's presidential Blue House, as well as the potential summit with Trump.

Saturday's surprise talks between the rival Koreas came hours after Trump told reporters that the planned June 12 summit in Singapore, which he abruptly canceled on Thursday, might still be salvaged.

“We’re going to see what happens,” he told reporters. “We're talking to them now. It could even be the 12th” of June.
