On May 21, US President Biden held a meeting with visiting South Korean President Moon Jae-in at the White House.
After the meeting, the two sides stated that both the United States and South Korea are willing to engage in diplomatic contact with North Korea and take pragmatic measures to promote the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.
On June 12, 2018, North Korea’s Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un and the then U.S. President Trump held their first North Korea-U.S. summit in Singapore and signed a joint statement on the denuclearization of the peninsula, indicating that the two countries will establish a new type of relationship and work together to build The Korean peninsula's lasting stability and peace mechanism.
However, the second summit meeting between the two sides in Hanoi, Vietnam in February 2019 ended in vain, and negotiations on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula have reached a deadlock.
