Here's what he said:

"On the occasion of this week's meeting between President Moon and Kim Jong-un, I want to express my hope that all of the people of Korea, North Korea and South, can someday live in harmony, prosperity and peace. And it looks like it could happen."

President Trump also said he's looking forward to meeting North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in the "coming weeks" where they will seek denuclearization,... and that it "should be quite something."
He added that he hopes Olympic athletes will be able to compete on a Korean peninsula,... that's "free of nuclear weapons."
He also mentioned on the same day that the number of potential summit venues had been narrowed down to two.
