Details: Kremlin Aide Yuri Ushakov said earlier the focus of Thursday's meeting "will be on a political and diplomatic solution to the nuclear problem on the Korean Peninsula," according to AFP. He hoped Russia would "consolidate the positive trends" stemming from President Trump’s meetings with Kim, AP reports. Their Hannoi summit ended without a deal in February.
