South Korean President Moon Jae-in said Monday that he hopes North Korea responds positively when he meets U.S. President Donald Trump this month as part of efforts to restart denuclearization talks with the North.

Speaking to his Cabinet, Moon said he would use the April 11 summit in Washington to discuss restarting U.S.-North Korea talks, advancing a peace process and creating a "virtuous cycle" of improving relations with Pyongyang.
