Singapore was chosen to host the historic meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un for security and neutrality, said White House deputy press secretary Raj Shah , aboard Air Force One.
"Singapore has ties to the United States and North Korea," Shah said on Thursday when asked to explain the location's choice. According to him, the city can "ensure the safety of President Trump and the safety of Kim Jong-un as well as provide neutrality."
Earlier this Thursday, Trump announced via Twitter that he will meet with Kim Jong-un in Singapore on June 12.
Shah stressed that the first meeting between Chinese and Taiwanese leaders also took place in Singapore a few years ago.
The White House spokesman added that the details of the meeting, such as its duration, still need to be discussed.
On Wednesday, Secretary of State Michael Pompeo said he was planning a one-day meeting between Trump and Kim with the opportunity to extend the event if necessary.
