- BY CHRISTOPHE­R BUCKTIN US Editor

THE summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un is back on, a week after the US President called it off.

Trump made the announceme­nt after the North Korean leader’s most senior aide hand-delivered a letter to the White House yesterday.

Trump said it was “a very interestin­g letter and at some point, it may be appropriat­e” to share it. He said Pyongyang “wanted to do denucleari­sation”. North Korea did not confirm this. The meeting will go ahead on June 12 in Singapore as originally planned. General Kim Yong-chol, North Korea’s former intelligen­ce chief, was greeted by Trump’s chief of staff, John Kelly, at the White House. Trump cancelled the summit after accusing North Korea of “open hostility”.
