North Korean state media has hit back at US critics of the scheduled meeting between Kim Jong-un and President Donald Trump as the North Korean leader travelled by train from Pyongyang to Vietnam, the venue of the summit. The two leaders are expected to meet next week in Vietnam’s capital following a meeting in Singapore last June. Last year’s meeting resulted in an ambiguous statement about the “denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula”. Top officials from Pyongyang and Washington are taking part in preparatory talks in Hanoi focused on determining the agenda for the summit. The US Special Representative on North Korea, Stephen Biegun, who heads the US delegation, said last month that the two countries did not have a “shared agreement of what denuclearisation entails”, according to reports from the AFP news agency.
