SINGAPORE - Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump meet on Tuesday for an unprecedented summit in an attempt to address the last festering legacy of the Cold War, with the US President calling it a "one time shot" at peace. Bringing the Korean War to a formal end 65 years after hostilities ceased will also be on the table at the first-ever summit between a North Korean leader and a sitting president of its "imperialist enemy". Former US deputy secretary of state Richard Armitage expected little progress on the key issue of defining denuclearisation. He has also dangled the prospect of Kim Jong Un visiting Washington if the meeting goes well. Kim has met twice with both Moon and Xi Jinping, the president of China, long the North's most important ally.
