Pompeo says more U.S-North Korea meetings possible, but no plans

MANILA, Feb 28 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Thursday that the United States and North Korea could hold further meetings after a second summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Vietnam failed to yield an agreement, but there was no plan to do so immediately.

"We haven't set a date," Pompeo told reporters on a flight from Vietnam to the Philippines. "My sense is it will take a little while. We'll each need to regroup a little bit. But I'm very hopeful that Special Representative (Stephen) Biegun and that team will get together before too long,"

"But we'll see ... there has to be a reason for the conversations," Pompeo said.

Biegun, who led working-level negotiations with his North Korean counterpart in the run-up to the Hanoi summit, was on the plane with Pompeo, but did not speak to reporters.

Sure Kim will come calling when he needs to boost his stature again.
