SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo agreed to arrange a second leaders summit "as soon as possible," and discussed potential U.S. monitoring of Pyongyang's steps towards denuclearisation, South Korea's presidential office said on Sunday.

Pompeo said his latest, fourth trip to Pyongyang was "another step forward" to denuclearisation and he had a "good, productive conversation" with Kim, but more needed to be done.
