A former Trump administration official predicted Wednesday that President Donald Trump could meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for a summit sometime this fall.
South Korea's National Intelligence Service separately said Tuesday that Trump and Kim will likely hold a summit next year. The spy agency didn't give specific details about timing or location.
Trump and Kim have met before during Trump's first presidency. Their previous summits grabbed global attention but didn't produce major breakthroughs on North Korea's nuclear weapons program.
Another former U.S. official said the possibility of a Trump-Kim summit during Trump's anticipated term appears low, showing mixed opinions among experts about whether the meeting will actually happen.
The prediction comes as Trump returns to the White House and faces ongoing challenges with North Korea's nuclear program.
A new Trump-Kim meeting could reshape U.S. relations with North Korea and affect global security. Previous summits between the two leaders made headlines worldwide but didn't lead to major changes in North Korea's nuclear program.
Watch for official announcements from the White House or North Korea about potential summit plans.
