Emergent intelligence reveals United States President Donald Trump and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un may have been holding secret talks in order to prepare for a summit. This may be a further indication that preparation for the highly anticipated meeting between the two leaders is progressing.

Central Intelligence Agency Director Mike Pompeo and his team are believed have been working to make preparations for the summit, officials say. A CNN report claims American and North Korean intelligence officials have dialogued a few times and have actually met in a third country, with an effort at mapping out a location for the talks.

Although the North Korean administration has not openly acknowledged its invitation by Kim Jong Un to meet with Trump, which was conveyed last month by a South Korean envoy, other officials say North Korea has since accepted Trump’s agreement, and Pyongyang has reiterated that Kim is willing to discuss the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
