U.S. Says President Trump Will Not Meet Kim Jong-un at Panmunjom During Visit to South Korea

This seemed unlikely considering that President Trump appears to only want to meet if Kim Jong-un commits to real denuclearization:

 U.S. President Donald Trump has no plans to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un during his trip to South Korea later this week, a senior U.S. administration official said Monday.

Trump will visit Seoul on Saturday and Sunday after attending a Group of 20 summit in Japan, prompting speculation that a Trump-Kim meeting could be arranged at the inter-Korean border.

“There are no plans for the meeting that you just mentioned,” the official told reporters on background in a phone call.

“The president’s there to see President Moon (Jae-in),” he said.

On a Trump visit to the Demilitarized Zone, the official said the details of the president’s schedule have yet to be finalized.
