A team of U.S. negotiators crossed into North Korea, hoping to nail down details for a potential meeting between North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, and President Trump in Singapore on June 12. Mr. Trump canceled the meeting last week, only to revive its possibility just as abruptly. For his part, Mr. Kim met with South Korea’s leader, Moon Jae-in, above left, who said Mr. Kim was determined to meet Mr. Trump and was committed to “complete denuclearization” of the Korean Peninsula. Negotiating those questions would normally take months, but Mr. Trump is in a rush. (The official was from the White House, and gave an anonymous briefing to scores of journalists.)
