WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 -- As the second summit between Pyongyang and Washington is likely to occur "soon," U.S. experts saw an opportunity to further ease the nuclear tension on the Korean Peninsula amid concerns that the meeting may be proved futile.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on the sidelines of a UN meeting on Monday that his second meeting with the top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Kim Jong Un could happen "quite soon."

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo also told a press conference earlier in the day in New York that he looked forward to traveling to Pyongyang later this year to prepare for the Trump-Kim summit, their second face-to-face meeting following the historic summit held in Singapore in June.

U.S. experts on the Korean Peninsula issues welcomed the ongoing negotiations between the DPRK and the United States after several months' stalled talks.

"Diplomatic process is very important," said Joseph Yun, a former U.S. special envoy on the DPRK, adding that every move forward is important.

"Denuclearization of NK (the DPRK) is a worthy goal and always will be," said Richard Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations, a New York-based think tank, in a tweet.

The possible Kim-Trump summit came after South Korean President Moon Jae-in's trip to Pyongyang last week, during which he held lengthy talks with Kim and signed the Pyongyang Declaration on further steps toward the Korean Peninsula's denuclearization.
