  • President Donald Trump says a deal with North Korea is in motion after agreeing to meet its leader Kim Jong-un.
  • The exact time and location of the meeting have yet to be announced.
  • The comments come a day after White House said that certain conditions would need to be met before Trump would meet Kim Jong-un.

US President Donald Trump tweeted early Saturday that a deal with North Korea "is very much in the making," after agreeing to meet leader Kim Jong-un for denuclearization talks.

A deal with North Korea "would be very good for the world," Trump wrote. He added that the exact time and location of the meeting has to be determined.

The message comes a day after White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that certain conditions would need to be met before Trump would sit down with the North Korean leader.

Trump would take the meeting only "on the basis that we have concrete and verifiable steps" toward the denuclearization of North Korea, Sanders said in a briefing.
