The White House released Trump’s schedule for Wednesday, which shows the president greeting Kim at 6:30 p.m. local time at the Sofitel Legend Metropole hotel in Hanoi. Trump and Kim are then set to meet one-on-one for 20 minutes, followed by a “social dinner,” according to the White House.

The dinner is scheduled to last roughly 90 minutes and conclude around 8:35 p.m. local time. Hanoi is 12 hours ahead of Washington, D.C.

Trump meeting with Vietnam Prime Minister Phuc

Image
(Nguyen Xuan Phuc)

I think the Vietnamese are trolling the West with these names! :roll

I see there is a restaurant in Chelsea (London) called "Phat Phuc Noodle Bar"
From my own experience I know that noodle is "Mee" in East Asia (as in "Prawn Mee")...
Phat Phuc Noodle Bar's signature dish could be "Phuc Mee" :cool

Lunch and signing ceremony off?
From CNN's James Griffiths

A planned working lunch between President Trump and North Korean leader Kim appears to have been canceled, as potentially has a joint signing ceremony.

After preliminary negotiations between Trump and Kim went over time, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters waiting to cover the lunch that it had been called off.

Negotiations would be wrapping up in the next 30 minutes, she said, after which Trump will return to his hotel for a press conference at 2 p.m. local time (2 a.m. ET).

She declined to comment when asked several times about the signing ceremony, which was originally scheduled for 2 p.m.


Kim and Trump headed back to their hotels

White House: No agreement reached
From CNN's Kevin Liptak in Hanoi

The White House says no joint agreement was reached between President Trump and North Korean leader Kim at their closely watched second summit.

“No agreement was reached at this time, but their respective teams look forward to meeting in the future,” press secretary Sarah Sanders wrote in a statement.

Sanders added “President Donald J. Trump of the United States and Chairman Kim Jong Un of the State Affairs Commission of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea had very good and constructive meetings in Hanoi, Vietnam, on February 27-28, 2019."

"The two leaders discussed various ways to advance denuclearization and economic driven concepts," she said.

North Korea test-fires a new tactical guided weapon
Published 27 min ago Updated Moments Ago

WASHINGTON —
North Korea tested a new type of tactical guided weapon on Wednesday, state media Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said Thursday morning local time.

Thursday’s test of “a powerful warhead” was overseen by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and marks the first public weapons test from the rogue regime since Trump’s historic meeting with Kim in Singapore last year.

The White House and Pentagon did not immediately respond to CNBC’s request for comment.

The latest revelation comes less than two months after the collapse of nuclear talks between President Donald Trump and Kim in Vietnam.
