US President Donald Trump said Saturday he hoped to organize a second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in early 2019, perhaps as soon as January or February. On Friday, Trump discussed the situation with South Korean President Moon Jae-in on the sidelines of the G20 summit. Kim agreed to travel to Seoul after hosting Moon in Pyongyang in September for their third summit this year. In his talks with Trump in Argentina, Moon earned some support for the Seoul summit from the US leader — perhaps in a bid to entice Kim to make good on his pledge. The two leaders said Kim’s visit to the South Korean capital “would provide additional momentum to their joint efforts to establish peace on the Korean peninsula,” Moon’s press secretary Yoon Young-chan said.
