President Trump became the first U.S. president in history to set foot in North Korea last month when he crossed into the country at the DMZ during a historic and previously-unannounced visit with Kim Jong Un.

The visit came after two previous summits between the two leaders leading to an initial deal for North Korea to work towards denuclearization before talks stalled after the second summit this year.

South Korea's president said last month that the administration and North Korea are in talks about another summit with Kim Jong Un that could be planned for later this year.
