Major news outlet such as the Czech News Agency (CTK), the Blesk newspaper, the iDnes.cz and Novinky.cz news websites noted that the selection of the venue for the summit was very important which must be acceptable for both sides.
According to the media, Prague was also among venue options for the first DPRK-USA summit in June 2018, but finally Singapore was chosen. One of the important reasons that the US and the DPRK selected Hanoi for the second summit was the good relationship that Vietnam has with both Washington and Pyongyang, and both the DPRK and the US have their embassies in Hanoi.

He said the role and position of Vietnam have become known worldwide as the meeting between the DPRK leader Kim Jong-un and US President Donald Trump attracts special international attention.
