Mr. Trump, seeking to revive the bond he claims to have forged with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in his first term, said last month that he plans to meet Mr. Kim later this year.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said on Friday that United States President Donald Trump wants dialogue with Pyongyang and confirmed Seoul will not be deploying troops to intervene militarily in the Iran war.
North Korea, which has secured critical backing from Russia in recent years, did not clearly respond to Trump.
Lee reiterated three times that South Korea would not deploy troops in a way that could lead to military intervention.
Seoul had reportedly been weighing deploying troops to the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway and crucial oil and gas transit chokepoint that has been at the centre of tensions between Washington and Tehran since the Iran war broke out in late February.
