Trump-Kim summit: North Korea's intentions still unclear

From Morning Report, 7:20 am on 12 June 2018

The US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un are just hours away from their historic talks which start at 1pm (NZ time) in Singapore. The pair will meet without aides or advisers - just interpreters. The US hopes the meeting will kick-start a process that sees Kim Jong-un give up all nuclear weapons. But North Korea's perspective has always been more opaque. The Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says the US was willing to offer "unique" security guarantees to North Korea.
