US Still Hopeful For N Korea Summit
BBC OS gives a vibrant account of the day’s events with explanation and reaction from those involved.
President Trump's administration is hopeful the summit with North Korea will go ahead, despite threats of cancellation. Mr Trump reiterated that the US would still insist on denuclearisation. We're following that fallout. Also we hear a live news report about the release of more than 2,500 documents by the Senate Judiciary Committee. It's about the meeting between top Trump aides and a delegation of Russians who promised to help the campaign. And a viral story about an audio clip. It's divided listeners into two tribes - those who hear "yanny" and those who hear "laurel".
