Questions are swirling about what if anything will be accomplished when President Trump meets with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un next week in Vietnam.
Senior administration officials have done little to clear up the questions, demurring on several specifics they said were still under negotiation with Pyongyang during a call with reporters to discuss the second summit between Trump and Kim.
The officials did indicate a priority for the summit is reaching an agreed definition of denuclearization, something that has thus far eluded negotiators.
But outside observers say theres little to indicate the gap has closed on that definition and are expecting at most modest gains in the effort to convince North Korea to relinquish its nuclear weapons.
