President Trump is set to cross the border into North Korea, becoming the first sitting US president to enter the isolated country

President Donald Trump will meet Sunday with North Korea's Kim Jong Un at the demilitarised zone separating the North and South, a day after he issued an unprecedented invitation and expressed willingness to cross the border for what would be a history-making photo op.

The invitation, while long rumoured in diplomatic circles, still came across as an impulsive display of showmanship by a president bent on obtaining a legacy- defining nuclear deal. North Korea responded by calling the offer a "very interesting suggestion." His comments followed hours after Trump asked for Kim to meet him there. "If Chairman Kim of North Korea sees this, I would meet him at the Border/DMZ just to shake his hand and say Hello!" he tweeted.

Meeting with Trump at South Korea's presidential Blue House on Sunday, Moon said when he saw Trump's invitation to Kim, "I could really feel that the flower of peace was truly blossoming on the Korean peninsula." Moon, who will accompany Trump to the DMZ, added that the meeting - if it happens - would be a "significant milestone in the peace process."
