North Korean leader Kim Jong Un announced he will suspend nuclear and long-range missile tests and plans to close a nuclear test site. 

The Korean Central News Agency, which is North Korea's state media agency, made the announcement as the nation's reclusive leader is in ongoing peace talks with South Korean President Moon Jae-in. Kim is also in negotiations to meet with President Trump. 

"As the weaponisation of nuclear weapons has been verified, it is not necessary for us to conduct any more nuclear tests," Kim said at a meeting of the Worker's Party of Korea, adding "the northern nuclear test site has completed its mission."

The Korean Central News Agency said the nation would freeze its nuclear tests and long-range missiles, specifically intercontinental ballistic missiles on April 21. 

The agency added, "the North will shut down a nuclear test site in the country's northern side to prove the vow to suspend nuclear test." 

After the announcement, President Trump posted on Twitter that the move was "very good news."

"North Korea has agreed to suspend all Nuclear Tests and close up a major test site," he said. "This is very good news for North Korea and the World - big progress! Look forward to our Summit."

Just days earlier, President Trump expressed a caution about the planned meeting with Kim, explaining he would "leave the meeting" if it's not "fruitful."

While exuding confidence about North Korea on Wednesday, Trump also raised the possibility that the yet-to-be scheduled summit might be called off because of a lack of agreement over an agenda — or that it might not be successful.

"Hopefully, that meeting will be a great success," Trump said.

For months, North Korea's missile tests have raised concerns around the world and helped escalate a dangerous slinging of insults between Kim and Trump.
