A U.S.-North Korea summit could happen "at any time," a South Korean lawmaker said Tuesday, citing the country’s spy agency amid signs of renewed dialogue.
U.S. President Donald Trump said last month he plans to again meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, but the public response from Pyongyang has been mostly muted and analysts were skeptical of imminent talks.
"Regarding the North Korea-U.S. summit, there was an analysis that it should be viewed as possible at any time," South Korean lawmaker Youn Kun-young told reporters, citing a briefing by the National Intelligence Service.
"It was stated that while no facts regarding concrete contact between the two sides have been presented, there are signs of dialogue," he added.
Trump, eyeing a revived bond he claims to have with Kim, also said in August it was important to "get along" with the North Korean leader, adding that Pyongyang now had 57 "very powerful" nuclear weapons.
