North Korea says nuclear negotiations with the U.S. will not resume unless Trump moves away from what Pyongyang calls unilateral disarmament demands.
President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un at their summit in Hanoi in February. North Korea says nuclear negotiations are off unless Washington changes its demands.
The statement by an unnamed North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesman published in state media was the country's latest expression of displeasure over the stalled negotiations as it continues to press Washington to soften its stance on enforcing sanctions against the isolated nation’s crippled economy.It came as President Trump prepared to travel to Japan for a summit this weekend with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in which the North Korean nuclear issue will probably be high on the agenda.
"We hereby make it clear once again that the United States would not be able to move us even an inch with the device it is now weighing in its mind, and the further its mistrust and hostile acts toward the DPRK grow, the fiercer our reaction will be," the statement said, referring to North Korea's formal name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
The U.S. has said the Trump-Kim talks broke down because of North Korean demands for sanctions relief in exchange for a partial surrender of its nuclear capabilities. Kim has since declared that the Trump administration has until the end of the year to come up with mutually acceptable terms for a deal.
