US President Donald Trump on Saturday has tweeted that a deal with North Korea is "very much in the making", a day after revealing he had agreed to meet its leader Kim Jong-un.
Earlier, the White House said the meeting would not take place unless Pyongyang took "concrete actions".
US media report that Mr Trump made the decision to meet without consulting key figures in his administration, who are now scrambling to catch up.
No sitting US president has ever met a North Korean leader, according to BBC.
