United States President Donald Trump on Wednesday said the fate of the planned summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un would be decided next week.
In the coming days, US officials are expected to meet with the North Korean counterparts to finalise the plans of the summit, The Hill reported.
On Tuesday, the US President said the scheduled North Korea-US summit is likely to get delayed in the wake of recent instances of inter-Korean disagreements.
Earlier on May 18, North Korea had threatened to call off the summit with the US due to the latter's on-going military drills with South Korea and also cancelled high-level talks with South Korea due to the same.
The high-level talks were meant to take place on the southern side of the truce village of Panmunjom in the heavily guarded Demilitarised Zone (DMZ) as a follow up to the inter-Korean summit held last month.
As reported by the North Korean Central News Agency last week, military drills called 'Max Thunder' took place between the US and South Korean air forces in the Korean Peninsula which has negatively impacted inter-Korean relations.
