Hanoi: A second summit between the US President Donald Trump and the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is set to take place in Vietnam's capital on Wednesday. The meeting will take place eight months after the landmark summit between the two leaders held in Singapore.
US seems to have its focus on bettering relations with N Korea before getting down to talk on denuclearisation. Pyongyang is keen to establish new ties with Washington for peace and prosperity and intends towards establishing a peace regime in the Korean Peninsula.

The US has a few demands from North Korea to discuss:
- Stop testing nukes and ballistic missiles
US demands that North Korea should stop testing its ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons. In past one year North Korea has produced bomb making material that is enough to produce seven nuclear weapons, Al Jazeera quoted Stanford University's Centre for International Security and Cooperation.
- Pyongyang should get rid of its mass destruction weapons
Washington expects N Korea to stop testing its weapons of mass destruction. Tomorrow's meeting shall discuss a concrete plan of action to stop such testings.
