US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says he's hopeful the United States will send a delegation to North Korea in the coming weeks, despite the summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un ending without any agreement.

"I am hopeful, although I have no commitment yet, that we will be back at it, that I'll have a team in Pyongyang in the next couple weeks. I'm continuing to work to find those places where there's a shared interest," Pompeo told the Iowa Farm Bureau on Monday.
