U.S. and North Korea Set for June 12 Trump-Kim Summit in Singapore
------------------------------------------------------------------

The White House has set June 12 as the date for a meeting between
President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, to be held in
Singapore. The unprecedented summit will come just months after Trump
and Kim traded insults-"little rocket man" and "dotard"-and after Trump
threatened to "totally destroy" North Korea, a nation of 25 million
people.
