President Donald Trump will meet North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un one-on-one when the two leaders come face to face for the first time at a summit in Singapore on Tuesday.
A U.S. official said Trump and Kim will speak with only translators present before a joint meeting with their delegations, as is consistent with the way that conversations with foreign leaders are typically handled. The president usually spends several minutes alone with his counterparts before moving into expanded bilaterals.
A White House statement on Monday evening in Singapore said the meeting would be followed by a working lunch and press avail before Trump departs for Washington a day earlier than was anticipated.
'The discussions between the United States and North Korea are ongoing and have moved more quickly than expected,' the statement said in an explanation of Trump's newly announced Tuesday evening departure.
