The United States and North Korea will continue high-level negotiations on the North's denuclearization as the statement signed by the 2 leaders is short on specifics.
US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un signed the joint statement after their first meeting on Tuesday in Singapore.
The document says Kim reaffirmed his commitment to the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. But it doesn't mention what specific action to take or how to verify the process, and there is no timetable for denuclearization.
The statement also says Trump is committed to providing security guarantees for the North.
But it stops short of mentioning a declaration of the end of the Korean War, which is seen as the first step for ensuring the North's security.
Observers say the US government did not include the details of its guarantees for the North as the agreement only confirmed the basic principle of denuclearization.
The statement says the US and North Korea are committed to holding follow-on negotiations at the earliest possible date to implement the outcomes of the summit.
Trump told reporters that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Advisor John Bolton will hold talks with North Korean officials next week.
Many US media outlets are critical of the statement.
The Wall Street Journal said it lacks the process to achieve the complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization that the US has long called for.
CNN quoted an expert as saying the statement is considerably weaker than previous North Korean commitments on the nuclear issue.
Trump is apparently trying to achieve visible results ahead of the mid-term elections in November.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga says Japan, along with the United States, will continue pressing North Korea to take concrete action toward denuclearization.
Suga told a news conference on Wednesday that Tuesday's US-North Korea summit has lessened the severity of the security situation surrounding Japan.
He said it's no longer the case that missiles could be launched toward Japan at any time.
But he cautioned that not all of the issues with North Korea can be settled at a single meeting. He said Japan will continue working with the United States to prod Pyongyang into fully implement UN Security Council resolutions for denuclearization.
Suga said if progress is made, Japan would be ready to share the initial costs for the International Atomic Energy Agency to resume verification work in North Korea.
As to the abduction of Japanese nationals, Suga said the government is determined to directly confront North Korea and take the initiative to resolve the issue with the support of US President Donald Trump.
Suga stressed it is extremely important that a potential Japan-North Korea summit meeting lead to the resolution of issues involving the nation's nuclear arms, missiles and abductions. He said he hopes such a summit can be arranged.

A senior official of Japan's main ruling party says North Korean leader Kim Jong Un made no reference during the US-North Korea summit to his country's official stance that the issue of abductions has been resolved.
The Liberal Democratic Party's executive acting secretary-general, Koichi Hagiuda, spoke to reporters on Wednesday after meeting with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
Hagiuda said US President Donald Trump raised the issue of Japanese people abducted by North Korea with Kim.
He said Kim didn't give the North's official position, that the matter has already been resolved.
Haguida said this shows significant progress has been made, and provides an opportunity for Japan to hold further talks with the North.
He said he hopes the Japanese government will take the initiative to resolve the issue.
Prime Minister Abe expressed his determination to resolve the issue during a luncheon with officials from the LDP's chapter from the northeastern prefecture of Miyagi.
Abe told them the abduction issue is his administration's most important political matter. He added that he views it as his responsibility to reunite the abductees with their families at any cost.

Amazon Japan and a Japanese government-backed body evaluating product safety have teamed up to analyze user product reviews to prevent accidents.
The president of the National Institute of Technology and Evaluation, Takashi Tatsumi, and Amazon Japan CEO Jeff Hayashida signed an agreement in Tokyo on Wednesday.
Amazon Japan is to provide to the institute, known as NITE, information from product reviews and complaints by online customers that could help prevent misuse or accidents.
NITE is to analyze problems with the products and convey its findings to Amazon.
The online retailer would warn customers who purchase the products. NITE would also urge caution if necessary.
The tie-up is the first between NITE and an online retailer. The institute expects to get about 100 pieces of information from Amazon per month.
The head of NITE's Product Safety Technology Center, Katsumi Arai, says it had not been able to gather information on products before accidents, and will try to analyze consumer behavior to prevent such trouble.

Japan's transport ministry will consider new security measures for bullet trains following Saturday's deadly knife attack on a Shinkansen traveling near Tokyo.
The ministry is urging rail companies to step up security after a 22-year-old man stabbed 3 passengers on the train. One of them died, and the other 2 were injured.
In a news conference on Tuesday, Transport Minister Keiichi Ishii noted that operators have been installing security cameras on high-speed trains since a Shinkansen passenger set himself on fire in June 2015. The man died, and a woman on the train was also killed.
Ishii said he takes Saturday's attack seriously as the operators have been taking steps to improve security.
He said his ministry will soon work out new security measures to prepare for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.
But Ishii expressed caution about introducing baggage inspections. He said the ministry needs to carefully examine if baggage checks would affect the convenience and punctuality of train services.
