美國國務卿蓬佩奧原定下周到訪北韓，不過總統特朗普在社交網站表示，由於朝鮮半島無核化仍未有足夠進展，已經指示蓬佩奧取消行程。
特朗普又表示，由於美方對華的貿易立場非常強硬，故不相信中方將一如以往，在朝鮮半島無核化進程上提供協助。
然而，特朗普又提及，蓬佩奧期望會在不久的將來再到北韓，時間將會是中美貿易戰解決之後。
今年以來，蓬佩奧已經3次到訪平壤。

I have asked Secretary of State Mike Pompeo not to go to North Korea, at this time, because I feel we are not making sufficient progress with respect to the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula...

...Additionally, because of our much tougher Trading stance with China, I do not believe they are helping with the process of denuclearization as they once were (despite the UN Sanctions which are in place)...

...Secretary Pompeo looks forward to going to North Korea in the near future, most likely after our Trading relationship with China is resolved. In the meantime I would like to send my warmest regards and respect to Chairman Kim. I look forward to seeing him soon!
