North Korea’s Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui said Friday that Trump was willing to talk, but was influenced by uncompromising demands by Pompeo and Bolton. She said the “gangster-like stand of the U.S. will eventually put the situation in danger.”
Bolton said Friday he has spoken with his South Korean counterpart about the North Korea allegations.
The North said Kim Jong Un (gihm jung oon) will decide soon whether to continue the talks aimed at getting him to give up his nuclear weapons in exchange for sanctions relief.
