In May, a meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-an is to be held - which will be an unprecedented event in the history of the recent world. Because this is the first meeting of a ruling US president with a North Korean leader.
Earlier, the BBC said that US and North Korean intelligence officials spoke 'many times' in this regard, quoting sources unhappy about the name of the trump administration.
In a 'third country' there was a meeting between them.
Laura Bicker, the BBC correspondent from Seoul, says at the end of a lot of speculation, it was finally acknowledged that Washington and Pyongyang were talking to each other.
US officials say the North Korea Trump-Kim is ready to discuss the future of their nuclear weapons reserves during the meeting.
North Korea has already told South Korea that they are willing to talk about the region's nuclear weapons-free, but this is the first direct assurance given to Washington.
