WASHINGTON/SEOUL—Talks between the United States and North Korea are headed in the right direction, a top U.S. envoy said on Friday,  June 1, ahead of a rare visit to the White House by a senior North Korean official.

At a planned meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington, Kim Yong Chol, a close aide of Kim Jong Un, will hand over a letter from the North Korean leader as the two sides try to put a derailed summit meeting back on track.
