My place or yours?

Just where might the controversial pair have their historic meeting?

The Korean

border The demilitarised zone (right) appears the most obvious choice. Moon Jae-in, the South Korean President, aims to meet Kim Jong-un at the Panmunjom Peace House in the heavily fortified border between the two countries next month.

China One way to boost China’s status as a key player in north-east Asia is to act as host. The border city of Dandong is a possibility, but Beijing is the obvious choice. North Korea US officials might consider this choice despite handing Mr Kim a propaganda coup, but it would certainly appeal to Mr Trump’s sense of drama – and perhaps his curiosity. Jimmy Carter visited in 1994, 2010 and 2011.

America The image of Mr Kim and his family being treated as guests at Mr Trump’s Mar-alago resort in Florida might be a dream for newspaper picture editors, but it would be highly unlikely.

Mr Kim is believed to have not left North Korea since he assumed leadership in 2011.

Geneva It hosted talks between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev in 1985 and Mr Kim studied at a Swiss school.
