US President Trump said, "We are proceeding according to the procedure" regarding the denuclearization talks with North Korea. "There is no time limit, no speed limit," he said.

President Trump said, "I will not be in a hurry," as he invited House members to the White House and explained the achievements of the summit with Putin.

"We still have sanctions and hostages detained in North Korea are back," he said. "We have not had nuclear tests or rocket launches in the past nine months."

These comments highlight the long-term nature of the denuclearization negotiations, and are a response to criticism from the United States that there is no success after the summit.

North Korea's hasty simultaneous negotiations are also urged to include a message that North Korea is not America.

President Trump said yesterday (July 17), through a major US broadcast interview, "the matter with North Korea will only take time and I will not really hurry."
