President Trump spoke on the phone Saturday, Washington time, with U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May about North Korea, Iran and other issues.
According to the White House, President Trump "emphasized his goal of a denuclearized North Korea."
His reference to North Korea specifically denuclearizing has drawn some attention here in South Korea.
It's a different goal than the one laid out in the Panmunjom Declaration signed by the leaders of the two Koreas a little over a week ago.
That statement called for a "Korean Peninsula completely free of nuclear weapons."
That could be an important distinction as President Trump prepares for his summit with Kim Jong-un.
