The U.S.-North Korea summit, which is expected to center on North Korea's nuclear program, is scheduled for June 12.
CBS News reports, the two leaders have a pretty big gap to close in their negotiations.
Trump continues to say that his goal is to get North Korea to agree to complete denuclearization, and on a quick time-line.
