In a Twitter message, Trump said on Wednesday: "I hope to see Kim Jong-a soon. He is making great difference!"Although he added that" time will tell what will happen to North Korea, "he held the dialogues and said that he was now living" a completely different story ".

However, National Intelligence Director Dan Coats told Congress Tuesday that the intelligence does not support the idea that Kim will eliminate his nuclear weapons or the ability to build more.

Last Saturday, President Trump said that the location of the new bilateral summit had been decided without providing further details, and the White House confirmed that it would be held in February.
