Prime Minister Lee Nak-yon said Saturday US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un are likely to meet soon.
"President Moon Jae-in and State Affairs Commission Chairman Kim Jong-un met twice and the North Korea-US summit is also likely to take place soon," the prime minister said in meetings with British veterans of the Korean War and South Korean residents here. He held the events in the British capital en route to Ireland, the second leg of his two-nation visit.
"After the beginning of this year, the circumstances of the Korean Peninsula have dramatically shifted," Lee said, adding that the peninsula has "welcomed in a good chance to permanently bring in a more lasting peace."
