Meeting follows Xi's trip to Pyongyangpublished at 07:46 British Summer Time 30 June 2019
Don't forget this meeting comes only 10 days after Chinese President Xi Jinping made his first official visit to Mr Kim in Pyongyang. China is North Korea's primary partner and North Korea needs China's support for progress on sanctions. It will also need Chinese investment if sanctions are lifted.
Mr Xi will no doubt have spoken to Mr Kim about the US relationship. It's unclear how much that Pyongyang trip influenced his decision to meet Mr Trump today. But Mr Xi will know that he has re-emphasised his role in proceedings.

End of X postWhat will happen at the border?published at 07:30 British Summer Time 30 June 2019
Everyone is stressing that this will just be a symbolic meeting. Mr Trump has said they will "just shake hands quickly and say hello because we haven't seen each other since Vietnam" - that's their last summit.
We haven't heard anything from Mr Kim yet.
Mr Trump's already differs from previous US presidential visits to the DMZ. His predecessors have stopped at the viewing point and looked at North Korea through binoculars. Crossing into the DMZ itself, even without the handshake, is unprecedented.

It carries the motto of the joint troops at the DMZ - We Go Together.
Trump and Moon inside Panmunjompublished at 07:24 British Summer Time 30 June 2019
Mr Trump and Mr Moon are inside the Panmunjom peace zone, where negotiations between the two Koreas have taken place in the past.
Mr Trump confirmed he "had the idea" only on Saturday to call Mr Kim. "I'm going to meet him in about four minutes", he says.
Why have the talks stalled?published at 07:15 British Summer Time 30 June 2019
After huge expectations, the Hanoi summit in February failed to deliver concrete progress. Mr Trump said this was because the North Koreans were not giving enough. The statemate is largely over whether North Korea should give up nuclear weapons (or start doing so) before sanctions are reduced or they should be cut as an incentive to do so.
So far, we don't know they've found a way to resolve this problem.
'What will they tell North Koreans?'published at 07:09 British Summer Time 30 June 2019
Analyst Ankit Panda wonders what - if anything - North Koreans themselves will be told about the meeting.
