Trump is set to meet with Kim Jong Un on June 12.

Sanders said at Monday’s press briefing that the initial meeting will take place at 9 a.m. Singapore time, which is 9 p.m. Eastern time, on June 11.

Trump is receiving daily briefings on North Korea ahead of the summit, and a team of U.S. officials is in Singapore making final logistical preparations, Sanders said.

Trump on Tuesday morning tweeted that he's hopeful the upcoming summit will be "the start of something big."

Meeting in Singapore with North Korea will hopefully be the start of something big...we will soon see! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 5, 2018

The president late last month canceled the meeting because of “open hostility” from the North Korean leader. However, he reversed course last week and announced the summit was back on.

A top North Korean official, Kim Yong Chol, visited the White House last week and hand-delivered a letter from Kim to the president.

U.S. officials have said as part of ongoing negotiations that North Korea must fully abandon its nuclear program.
