HeadlineMay 31, 2018

Talks between Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and North Korea’s former spy chief, Kim Yong-chol, have entered a second day here in New York. Kim is the most senior North Korean official to visit the United States in two decades. The meeting comes just days after President Trump called off a June 12 summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, but there is still hope the summit will take place. Meanwhile, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is in Pyongyang, where he met with Kim Jong-un.
