Trump hints Inter-Korean border as venue for meeting with Kim

Washington, May 01: US President Donald Trump on Monday floated the inter-Korean border as a possible venue for his meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

"Numerous countries are being considered for the MEETING, but would Peace House/Freedom House, on the Border of North & South Korea, be a more Representative, Important and Lasting site than a third party country?" Trump wrote on Twitter. "Just asking!"

The Peace House was the location of South Korean President Moon Jae-in's meeting with Kim last Friday. The Freedom House is a nearby building that serves as a liaison office between the Koreas.

Both houses are on the southern side of the border in the truce village of Panmunjom. Trump is expected to meet Kim within weeks. Last week, the US leader said the location had been narrowed to two prospective sites.
