washington - The new US Secretary of State is again in North Korea to allegedly prepare the meeting between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. Mike Pompeo arrived in Pyongyang on Wednesday.

An employee of the South Korean president said that three American prisoners in North Korea might be released. They will fly back to the United States with Pompeo.
