2019 North Korea–United States Hanoi Summit
The 2019 North Korea–United States Hanoi Summit, commonly known as the Hanoi Summit, was a two-day summit meeting between North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. president Donald Trump, held at the French Colonial Hôtel Métropole in Hanoi, Vietnam, from February 27 to 28, 2019. It was the second meeting between the leaders of North Korea and the United States following their first meeting in Singapore the year prior.
On February 28, 2019, the White House announced that the summit was cut short and that no agreement was reached. Trump later clarified that it was due to North Korea's request to end all sanctions. North Korean foreign minister Ri Yong-ho asserted that the country only sought a partial lifting of the five United Nations sanctions placed on North Korea between 2016 and 2017.
The first North Korea–United States summit between Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump took place in June 2018 in Singapore with the objectives of resolving the long-term Korean conflict involving ICBM nuclear weapons and denuclearization of the Korean peninsula. A series of bilateral summits was held between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, CCP General Secretary Xi Jinping, South Korean President Moon Jae-in, and US President Donald Trump.
The White House confirmed the planned summit between Kim Jong Un and Trump on September 11, 2018. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo stated that North Korea and the U.S. were "working diligently" to make sure the conditions were right for the summit.
Trump stated the host country would be Vietnam, and the dates to be February 27 to 28, during his second State of the Union Address on February 5, 2019. He later announced that the summit would take place in Hanoi.
Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Phạm Bình Minh visited North Korea at North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho's invitation from February 12 to 14. The visit came ahead of the summit, which a spokeswoman from the Vietnamese Foreign Ministry said in a statement posted on Twitter.
Pompeo appointed Stephen Biegun as United States Special Representative for North Korea on August 23, 2018.
In September 2018, The New York Times reported that "North Korea is making nuclear fuel and building weapons as actively as ever" but did so quietly, "allowing Mr. Trump to portray a denuclearization effort as on track." Two months later, The Times reported that North Korea appeared to be engaged in a "great deception" by offering to dismantle one missile base while developing sixteen others, and that this expansion program was long known to American intelligence but contradicted Trump's public assertions that his diplomacy was yielding results. Immediately following the June 2018 summit, Trump had declared "There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea ... sleep well tonight!"
