In June 2018, the eyes of the world turned to Singapore to witness the first-ever meeting between a sitting U.S. President and the Supreme Leader of North Korea.

The historic summit was held at the Capella Hotel in Sentosa.

While in Singapore, Kim also met with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong at the Istana.

Talks between North Korea and the United States over the denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula are ongoing, although reportedly stalled, with both sides unclear on the next step beyond general goals.

According to the BBC, Moon made the trip to Pyongyang to act as a mediator between the two countries, as well as further strengthening the relationship between North and South Korea.
