The much-anticipated meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will take place at a hotel on the Singaporean island of Sentosa, the White House has confirmed.
The historic summit is scheduled to take place on 12 June, but many details are still unconfirmed.
It will be the first meeting between a North Korean leader and a sitting US president.
Mr Trump said on Tuesday that plans were “moving along very nicely”.
“A lot of relationships being built, a lot of negotiations going on before the trip,” he told reporters.
“It’s very important – it’ll be a very important couple of days.”
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders confirmed on Twitter that the summit would take place at the five-star Capella Hotel.
But it appears that the two leaders will stay elsewhere. Mr Trump will likely be at the Shangri-La Hotel, where US presidents have stayed before, while Mr Kim will probably stay at the St Regis Singapore, the Straits Times newspaper reports. The two hotels are on the main island, near the famous Orchard Road shopping strip.
Sentosa is one of 63 islands that make up Singapore.
