That URL is bad. If I remove the semicolon before 'latest', it works:
https://pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/meta.txz
My guess is that you have a bad configuration setting (?).
Here is my machine:
2020-06-05 20:03:37 toor at vf1 ~/Dpchrist-Perl-b0_01063002/t
# freebsd-version && uname -a
12.1-RELEASE-p5
FreeBSD vf1.tracy.holgerdanske.com 12.1-RELEASE-p5 FreeBSD
12.1-RELEASE-p5 GENERIC amd64
Here is my pkg.conf, which I have not modified. Compare it to yours:

# grep -v '#' /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf | grep .

required-depends: info -qr,
roptions: rquery -i "%n - %Ok: %Ov",
shared-depends: info -qB,
show: info -f -k,
size: info -sq,
}
If that doesn't work, try the --debug option to pkg(8) and look for clues.
