Moon Jae-in meets Donald Trump after North Korea summit failure

US President Donald Trump and first lady, Melania, attend a state dinner hosted by South Korean President Moon Jae-in at the Blue House in Seoul, South Korea, in this November 7 2017 file photo. Picture: REUTERSouth Korean President Moon Jae-in is meeting US President Donald Trump at the White House on Thursday, to try to find a path forward from the debris of a failed nuclear summit between the US president and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

Although trade and the role of the huge US troop presence in South Korea are hot topics, North Korea dominates. But if an initial meeting between Trump and Kim in Singapore in 2018 broke the ice, the follow up in Hanoi ended with no progress on US demands for North Korea to start dismantling its nuclear weapons programme or North Korea's desire to see an easing of international sanctions.

Trump continues to face criticism that he is out of his depth in talks with Kim and that sitting down with the dictator has yet to bring much benefit.
