SEOUL - To advance the peace process on the Korean peninsula, it is necessary for Seoul, Washington and Pyongyang to maintain bilateral and trilateral dialogues and to continue to pursue a top-down approach, a South Korea presidential aide has said.

During his US trip, Mr Kim will meet with the White House National Security Council and with members of Congress, including US deputy national security adviser Charles Kupperman, to set the agenda for the upcoming summit between President Moon Jae-in and US President Donald Trump on April 11 in Washington.

Prior to the summit, in a letter to Mr Trump, Mr Kim Jong Un reportedly expressed his willingness to negotiate only with the US President, without the presence of other US envoys. "What's important is the definition of denuclearisation," he said."So, we'll discuss the ways to achieve that target and how we should do it."
