- Story Text:U.S. President Donald Trump's motorcade arrived back at the JW Marriott Hotel Hanoi, where he has been staying, after a summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un on Wednesday (February 27).
Both Kim and Trump met in Vietnam on Wednesday for a second summit that the United States hopes will persuade North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons in exchange for promises of peace and development.
On Thursday (February 28), the two leaders will hold "a series of back and forth" meetings, the White House said. The venue for those talks has not been announced.
Trump said late last year he and Kim "fell in love," and on the eve of his departure for the second summit said they had developed "a very, very good relationship."
Whether the bonhomie can move them beyond summit pageantry to substantive progress on eliminating Pyongyang's nuclear arsenal that threatens the United States is the question that will dominate the talks in Hanoi.
