WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump told the Reuters news agency at the White House on Monday that he would "most likely" meet with the top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), Kim Jong Un, for a second time.

"I don't want to comment on that, but it's most likely we will," he said.

He also said that he believed Pyongyang had taken specific steps toward denuclearization, and that he has "great chemistry" with Kim.

"I like him. He likes me," he said. "There's no ballistic missiles going up, there's a lot of silence ... I have very good personal relations with Chairman Kim, and I think that's what holds it together."

In the joint statement after the June 12 Trump-Kim meeting in Singapore, Trump committed to provide security guarantees to the DPRK, while Kim reaffirmed his firm and unwavering commitment to a complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

The two leaders also agreed to commit to establish new U.S.-DPRK relations, and to build a lasting and stable peace regime on the peninsula.
