The capital is busy preparing for the second summit between the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) and the US which is due to take place in the city on February 27-28.



Posters promoting for the event are being put up on many streets in the city.

In a meeting held on February 20 to review the preparations for the event, PM Nguyen Xuan Phuc tasked ministries and sectors to do their utmost to ensure security and safety for a successful summit.


As the summit will take place on the occasion of 20 years since Hanoi received the City for Peace title from UNESCO, Phuc urged the capital to take advantage of the opportunity to promote its image of a peaceful and friendly city with great potential for development co-operation.
