Sweden is ready to hold a historic meeting of US President Donald Trump with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

This was stated by the Prime Minister of Sweden Stefan Leven, according to The Local.

"If we can somehow help, we will do it," Leven said.

In an interview with the Swedish media, he emphasized Sweden's role, which she played before. Leven reminded that in the past, US diplomats used the Swedish embassy in Pyongyang as a channel for communication with the DPRK.

"The fact that we are a defensive force for the US, that we were on the border since the 1950s, that we had an embassy in Pyongyang since the early 1970s, gives us such a relationship with North Korea, in which, as we feel, they We are trusted, "Leven said.

Earlier, US media such as Washington Post and ABC News called Sweden a possible meeting place between Trump and Kim Jong-un.

Recall that on March 9, US President Donald Trump reported on preparations for a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

Later Trump said that the DPRK promised not to conduct nuclear tests during the negotiations.

Speaking about the upcoming meeting with Kim Jong-un, Trump said that they could "make the largest deal in the world."
