The talks will be aimed at achieving the final fully verified denuclearisation of North Korea, a senior administration official said on Thursday.
President Donald Trump will host Japan Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the White House for a two-day summit on Friday, where the two world leaders will discuss next steps in ensuring the denuclearization of North Korea, national security and bolstering trade.
The meeting comes as U.S. and Japanese officials commenced a second round of trade negotiations in Washington on Thursday to reach a deal on agricultural and automotive commodities. During their meeting tomorrow, Trump and Abe will likely continue talks on striking a bilateral trade deal between the two nations after the Trump administration's decision to pull out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
“Just landed - a long trip, but everybody can now feel much safer than the day I took office,” the president tweeted after their meeting in 2018. “There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea. Meeting with Kim Jong Un was an interesting and very positive experience. North Korea has great potential for the future!”
